Learning to love Lidl!

Kids not up for much at all today. They were still on Reading time last night and didn’t go to sleep til about 9.30pm but still managed to get up by about 6.30am. Davies steadily declined throughout the day and by mid afternoon it was clear he was not just tired, he also has Boyflu 🙁

So he spent most of the day on the PC. He played on the Nickjr site, which he can totally navigate his way round and read rather a lot of the text on, some Zoombinis (he played one and decided it was too hard, so put Mountain Rescue on and then called me to say it must be broken as it’d gone somewhere he’d never seen before. Turns out he’d completed it, within about 10 minutes. I think it was a saved game from before but I was still pretty impressed. He also played his Thomas game, Bugs Life games and ended up with Green Eggs and Ham. Finally he came and sat on the sofa snuggled up to me.

Tarly spent some time watching him play, some time doing some foam floor puzzles (rather well actually now I think back), some fuzzy felt, a very recognisable picture of a cat, lots of coming for cuddles and then had some retro time watching Cbeebies which we hardly ever watch here. She danced along to Boogie Beebies, loved Tikkabilla (which Davies came to watch too and we all enjoyed singing along with the songs), she ate soup for tea and then we all snuggled up and watched Charlie and Lola, adapted from the books and that was fab 🙂

I spent some time on the phone, I updated Buy Me Love and Near The Knuckle and gave out lots of cuddles. Love my babies lots today 🙂 I also washed at least 4 loads of washing and got most of it dry (some still tumbling, some still on the line, none as yet put away!) and we did nip to the post office to get an ebay parcel on it’s way.

Ady came home and I popped out to my parents then me and Mum went to Lidl. Sooo cold tonight 🙁 Called back in again when I dropped Mum home for a chat with her and Dad and then came home for a nice hot bath and a curry. Am now very tired and wondering whether I’ll be getting Girlflu any time soon – hopefully earlier this week rather than later! Tomorrow, ill health permitting we’re off to Ali’s. It’s been a long, long time and we have lots of catching up to do 🙂 Oh and finally Ady’s at last sorted himself out on flickr and is enjoying taking and uploading pictures each day. His username is adybloke if you want to have a peep .

  1. Ady’s doing slightly better than Steve, who has finally got himself a flickr account too (lazybones_dad – user id chosen by the kids ages ago!).

    Very excited here as it looks like we will be getting an Aldi just down the road- is that the same as Lidl?

  2. I’ve got the very worst girlflu I have ever had in my life. I can barely stay upright. Bob on 12 hours shifts, and so glad that Hannah is able to look after herself AND me.

  3. Oh Joyce darling, I wondered where you’d gone. Fretting about imminent Girlflu here myself although as everyone else has already had it at least they’ll be well placed to look after me while I lay prone on the sofa if I do come down with it.

  4. you need sanitiser – no man-, woman-, or childflu here 😉

    Joyce it sounds rotten – antibody vibes
