< wipes away croissant crumbs from chin - thanks Blue > Good afternoon everyone, hope all UK based fledglings are enjoying the bank holiday.
Cag - did you find your glue gun? and there is nothing wrong with taking time to rest when it is needed.
Still - looking at all you ta-da lists is making me feel exhausted! Re 'sandificated' little people fresh from the beach, did you know that talcum powder is incredible at getting sand off skin? Apply it liberally to sandy parts and brush off with your hands and all the sand comes away with it. We have had three trips to the beach this summer and it has never failed me.
Mercury - yay for nice homely living room! Does your new home feel like 'home' now?
Celeste - Our DS stayed at my MIL's last night so we could have a lie in today - neither of us woke up until after 10am; it was sheer bliss!
Cotswold - hows that list shaping up?
< waves to Toffee, SC, Einstein, Dogs, Honu, Feetheart, Ellie and all other old and new fledglings >
I don't have a huge amount of productivity to report, just about keeping up with all the usual laundry and tidying routines really.
My MA course starts in October and we have a staggering amount of reading to do before then. I spent almost £200 on amazon on text books this week (ouch). I think the only way I'm going to keep a level head and get it all done, is to quickly establish a solid daily routine for the four days a week DS is at nursery where I set aside specific time slots for study.
I have a habit of procrastinating around the actual starting of studying, once I get into it, I'm fine. However, I tend to busy myself with house work and cleaning rather than getting down to the work I should be doing!
