a to-do list

Leave a Comment

Tomorrow is a day in which things must be done. Hubby has work in the afternoon/evening so while entertaining and occupying my cheeky monkey I need to make sure I am getting on with it all. Here is my to do list so I can check things off as I go. Life is more satisfying that way I find 🙂

  1. A large load of laundry (and other daily chores).
  2. Try to finish shopping for most christmas presents.
  3. Make a menu plan for the next 7 days.
  4. Put in a repeat prescription for Vince.
  5. Finish writing out Christmas cards.
  6. Finish Emma’s pyjama top!
  7. Start our PJ bottoms.
  8. Bake a birthday cake.
  9. Wrap/assemble birthday presents.
  10. Prepare dining room for Emma’s birthday brekkie (birthday decs instead of christmas decs).

Sounds like a Monday sort of list doesn’t it!

I hope you have all had a lovely weekend 🙂

train fun

1 Comment

Today the 3 of us took a trip out to Canterbury for the fun of it. In spite of the pretty darn miserable, wet weather, we had a nice, easy day which broke the hectic pace of December.

We took the train up to the city as Emma enjoys train journeys and I enjoy not having to drive and pay parking charges!

Actually I think it would be fair to say that Emma loves train journeys and the travelling portion of the day was her highlight.

long days

I’ve not long been home this evening (its 11pm). I spend most Thursdays up at my brothers looking after my nephew, and Emma of course! It can be tiring just having two under 2s to chase after, but really what makes it a long day is the drive, particularly the 90 minute drive home in the dark, especially tonight through the thick fog.

I am thankful to be able to spend so much time with my nephew though, and even more grateful that Emma and Isaac are able to grow up together despite how far apart we actually live.

But now I am home and I have collapsed on the sofa with Vincent and the worlds best cup of tea. Which if you are interested is a milky Earl Grey with a teaspoon of honey made by my husband (don’t knock it till you’ve tried it!).

It has been a long day but it is worth it to see my two little smilers and for this moment of relaxation with my hubby before going to bed.

Night all!
