back properly at work tomorrow.
SO I got up relatively early, so I could go to # clinic with mum, to find that they had gone exceptionally early and were through and didn’t ring. I guess because it all seems OK. They are happy with the position and everything. Mum and Little Nanny have laryngitis though, and not too well, and their NYE spent worrying over my sisters breast lump – clinic for her on Mon, fingers firmly in crossed position.
So the girls and I carried on with a great wodge of crafts. BBhas now finished all the spoons, SB has painted all the fairies, and has now done the plaster of paris moulds that may get painted tomorrow [dependent on amounts of snow to play in]
We were prepared enough to put some tomato soup in a flask and whisk out for our monthly walk with Michelle and Chloe, which we had when we arrived. It was COLD. Michelle told me off for whinging!! SB and chloe are supposed to take pictures of whatever they were interested in. They did both take piccies, but SB gradually lost heart due to the coldness of her fingers. We did a dif walk this time to the formal gardens, and will flickr. Again BB was totally adorable – and has remained so at home. At present she is cooking for me [having slept in the car home she is beanying about!] A lovely time was had, and I am looking forward to these monthly walks. next time the quarry again.
We played with the RSPB welcome packs when we got home. lots of reading and discussion. we watched ballet shoes, which we all enjoyed.
I quote from your previous post: “Hoping for a nice and chilled 2008″.
I give you a good start in that direction and all you do is complain. Some people are never happy.
ah michelle you use my very own words against me! I wasn’t really thinking subarctic!
I will get to these walks, i will. But not while it is freezing cold!
You fair weather walker you!
It’s in the winter that I need to get out more
Oh, you’ve reminded me that we need to renew kids’ RSPB memberships.
I keep meaning to get out for walks more. Today the outside seems to have disappeared into a grey fog and we’ve got sleet/rain instead of snow – so not very tempting!
Ah, well I’m with Allie on that one but although it was cold, it was brilliantly sunny. It’s sun not temperature that I need. A sunny but cold winter does more for my mood than the warm but overcast and wet summer we had.
