And the words to go with the pictures…
Today was Jasper day, so despite being my lie in when I was awoken by the children being rowdy at about 7.30am I got up instead of rolling over and going back to sleep. We managed to be out of the house by shortly after 9am and arrived in Reading for 11am. A quick trip …
Frugal fireworks!
Guess where we’ve been today?
As if by magic…
Today was the day when it all got better again 🙂 My tooth is still painful but sore rather than agony and I’m still taking painkillers but I can go for longer between doses so it’s on the up 🙂 This morning the children played with the geomags and some X box while I did …
SB stylee
Davies has been holding geomag masterclasses all day to his adoring audience and I promised when the camera battery had recharged I’d record a version for the blog ‘just like SB’s balloon car clip’
Happy Birthday
To Isabelle – 2 today! Have a lovely day, from Ady, Nic, Davies and Scarlett xxx

This site is a bit good 🙂
Once I had a bin bag It was black as black could be I loved that old black bin bag I took it everywhere with me I took it right around the house and emptied every bin in every room, even the lounge and the bin bag put it in I tied the top up …
Bulletin!
Had a much better night last night and my tooth itself is far less painful, just a bit sore today. The infection ache seems to have travelled down my jaw and is now more tender to the touch (like a bad bruise) than a constant insanity inducing pain. I’m still keeping the painkillers topped up …
things making me feel worse…
Painkillers wore off rather quicker than I’d hoped, just popped another two and will be heading off to bed as soon as the throbbing stops 🙁 Had a salt water mouth wash thingy which made me gag and retch. Salt water is really disgusting you know. Just realised I don’t actually like brandy unless it …
Things making me feel better….
Ady’s home 🙂 One child is already asleep 🙂 Ady is working from home tomorrow so he can take me to the hospital for my x ray and sit in the car so we don’t have to remortgage to park in the hospital car park. And he says the best thing for me to do …
And now….
That blog post was interupted by the arrival of Lucy and I’d ranted and gone OT from what was supposed to be the round up of our day so I’m back now with more. So yesterday morning I did tidying – Davies played on his X box and Tarly came and ‘helped’ me tidy. Then …
And this bloody tooth!!!!
Feeling a bit living dead today. I’m really tired due to having crap nights sleep with my tooth three nights in a row and having Tarly up aswell. Monday night she woke coughing at about 10pm, came and sat in the lounge with me until midnight and then I went to bed thinking she’d finally …
This year Home Education has been hugely challenged for me. As have many other aspects of my personal life but way back when this was a Home Ed blog and I have other places to explore or talk about the rest of it should I choose to do so ;-). We’ve now been official for …
blah pah grrr
Tried really hard to be all accessible and available for the children today and I managed it a bit. We built a lego house together and chatted a bit about how to build stronger walls by staggering the blocks instead of building one on top of another. I managed to book Tarly’s birthday party at …
Another milestone moment…
We needed more kiddie drugs today (along with some grown up ones) so I did a bit of a stock up bulk purchase including some Evening Primrose Oil tablets for me (I’ll keep you updated on progress with that – I am slightly sceptical with the same level of belief I reserve for arnica really, …
Splutter
Davies suddenly started fading fast as we were about to leave Chris and Helen’s on Saturday and spent the whole journey home coughing. I may have mentioned previously that I find a cough slightly irritating :roll:, we got home, they had a bath and something to eat and he was asleep really quickly. He woke …
Christmas cards then….
Last year we did a christmas card list through my blog, so that we can still do the whole making cards for friends thing without having to make 100 or so for people we don’t actually know! I think I probably still have the addresses somewhere but if anyone else either wants to join in …
Nic Camps!
I mentioned last week that I am thinking about another camp in March / April. If anyone is interested please let me know – or come and join the yahoo group Nic Camps . Location and dates to be decided but an initial shout of interest would be good. 🙂
