it is true, its been out enough for me to start feeling warm! I have also cut back on my antimigraine prophylaxis, which has made me feel hugely jugely better. and a meeting at work happened and yet didn’t happen, but a process has begun. so lots of things to stress about, but summer is comming and that makes life feel better.
Also making life feel better was having weds off to do nothing whatsoever with my girls they were both v happy with this, partic BB. She says she likes doing nothing days . we didnt do nothing precisely we did cello and piano prac together, and she did them both well, learnt new note on the piano without stress – bflat! and had a go at 4th finger in a piece. not successfully, but we had negotiated we would just try the bar each practice until she found it easy, so that it didn;t matter that she felt muddled . She did some collins grammar with me on verbs as well, and we reviewed the gas in the test tube from last week and determined that it was oxygen .
SB has started so you really want to learn galore park history 2 – woohoo and so completed a whole chapter she also did 2 chapters of her biology IGCSE book – which went alongside the experiment – and transposition towards her grade 5 music theory. This all took quite a long time, and she did do some of it outside whilst i watered the greenhouse and BB helped DH clear the pond . Alfie the tortoise also got a good run about outside.
it was such a glorious day the girls did a bit of playing outside, and SB took the photos of me in my clothes for kentwell signoff, so that is us all signed off clothing wise
for a while the girls have wanted to use our vine leaves to make dolmades, so we used this recipe and both had a go at making them. they were delish tho i think i could have upped the herbs and garlic a bit.
BB went off to judo and SB and I played agricola together after that in the conservatory. SO a lovely day
other things of the week – SB wrist still hurts a lot, but she did multisports and conservation [as did BB] and both her ballet classes. After grade 5 her teacher thinks she will be grown enough and strong enough to get points to wear, so she is v excited about that!
