We had nothing planned today other than going to the bank to pay the mortgage. We did that and not a lot else really. We played on DSs, the children watched Ben 10, I did a bit of baking (chocolate and banana muffins), they played their current fave George and Timmy from Famous Five meets Ben 10 game using geomags and Betty Spagetty, I chucked them outside for half an hour before tea to run off some energy. I read lots of Marian Keyes latest book and pondered on alcoholism.
I have failed to engage with them for lots of today but they are just fine with that every once in a while and it was still interspersed with cuddles, singing, laughing and me looking up every so often from what I was doing to throw a comment into their conversations so I probably engaged plenty overall.
We finished with a couple of chapters of story before bedtime.
Oh and just because it amused me Candle (the cat) fell asleep on a half finished and should have been put away properly bar of chocolate which melted into her tail, side of her face and whiskers and two paws. She reminds me of an ex boyfriend I had who used to regularly fall asleep clutching his kebab and wake with it all smeared into his cheek with pieces of lettuce in his eyebrows. Classy eh?! 😆
