You’d be forgiven for thinking we never do anything. It’s not even remotely true. These days the things I would like to blog far outnumber the number of hours I have for blogging. I wish I could record keep like the old days; I love looking back on those posts. Looking back on the last […]
A head filled with heavy nothing.
Oh dear. No blogging. We’ve actually been having a good time, if you count charging around like loons a good time. I could write lots of posts filled with interesting stuff. I will do. But not here. If you read my other blog (and thank you to the people who do and commented, I really […]
Further Tudor Doll Costume Merriment.
I’ve been enjoying watching a real change in my girls over the last few days. Amelie and Josie have both really persisted at sewing Tudor clothes for their Groovy Girl dolls and have got better and better as they went along. Both sewed gather petticoats in jersey fabric (idea for a doll, falls really nicely) […]
A day in the past.
Try to remain calm… We left the house, all of us, in one go. We went somewhere. We had a nice time. Miracles! Lots of our friends have started doing Tudor reenactment at Kentwell Hall. You might think we would be dead certs for this, I certainly have always wanted to do something of the […]
More Sport Hama Bead Designs & Home Ed Life.
So the Olympics are coming and my sporty girls have entered into the spirit it and helped me get some Hama Bead patterns together. They’ve been very creative and we’ve put a free set of ideas (I’ve lost my design disk… again 🙁 ) on BeadMerrily for Hama Bead enthusiasts. There are a few Maddy […]
Coming up for air. Breastfeeding amendments.
A few days ago I admitted defeat over exclusive breast feeding. It hasn’t really worked for Bene and I all that well; he has gained weight brilliantly (he’s over 16lbs at just short of five months, which given he was 5 1/2 lbs at one point is quite impressive) and he sleeps all night which […]
Finished it Friday: Ben's Cardigan
I fear I left it too long with this one. I started it when he was a few weeks old and got distracted, thought it wouldn’t matter because he was so small and then he got huge through doing all the feeding that stopped me knitting and now this is clearly only going to fit […]
Are we lucky or damn near perfect? Teenager rearing.
I reckon this post will come back to bite me on the posterior. I can nearly guarantee when in fact; I reckon I have just under 2 years before I’m holding my head in my hands and wailing ‘WHAT was I thinking?’ If it happens sooner than that, it is conclusive proof of that unwritten […]
Stuff we do.
I’ve got a post coming up sometime soon on why it’s been such a very long stream of at home days for so long and what we are doing about it, but while life has been mostly home, we’ve got on and done nice things. It’s been the mostly lovely, healing 4 months forums. We’ve […]
WedEd: sewing, electromagnets (possibly) and The Listeners.
Yesterday was a good day. After a slow start my spirits soared as we came within a tiny distance of sponsoring six children in Niger, I was feeling disappointed in what I had achieved but actually, it suddenly struck me that in 3 days bloggers and readers of blogs have pledged £1700. We are going […]
