Thursday’s Mum is still making an effort.

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

Although as an aside, i really love this picture of Fran.

And this one of Josie with “dizzy hair” is lovely too, except it blurred - but never mind.

Another decent day; maths round the table first thing; Amelie grapsed hundreds and what to do if there are no tens, i was ever so proud of her. [...]

Rainbow Poem by Fran.

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

If I was a rainbow
I’d play about.

Had a very pleasant day with Nattyem, her girls and D and a few doodah doodah moments at her girls also having [...]

Monday’s Mum is full of bacteria.

Monday, July 28th, 2008

Had huge plans for today, but woke up this morning with something horrible going on in my bladder, which i eventually realised was a uti and has probably been contributing to my general air of malaise, tiredness and weepiness over last week or so. I’ve had a pain in my tummy for a good 10 [...]

Forgotten stuff again.

Monday, July 28th, 2008

It’s been a bit of a haze, this last couple of weeks. I think i blogged till just before the Festival of History but i can’t remember wednesday (i worked some of it, Max did something quite meaningful with them - i know, geography of Europe, loads of different types and styles of maps and [...]
