too busy to blog (well nearly!)

Where do I start?... ahh yes Friday was Funtime, our monthly HE meet up in Carterton, its great N gets to meet up with all her friends.
Saturday, into town, the library and shopping - you may have seen N's bargain on her blog. Claires Access 10 things for £10. she actually got £81 worth of stuff that had been reduced to £36 in the sales, and she paid £10. It was shocking at the till - the assistant reached for her calculator to work out how much she had to take off to get £36 down to £10? I told her nicely in the end to put her out of her misery.
Sunday, we took the dogs for a long walk and came home and washed all the floors together while we waited for Hubby to come home from work. We finished Peter & The Starcatchers ready for book club this Thursday.
Monday, after N had done her work she looked after my friends guinea pigs for an hour - handling them, and grooming them......

Okay I had a cuddle too!!!!

Here they all are together! In the evening she registered for an online book challenge. Whats in a name 4, which she will include in her blog www.fizzy-sherbert.blogspot.com She found a book she hadn't read on her bookcase which fitted into the category and read the whole thing that night!
Tuesday, after N had done her work she had a friend over to play and then off to gymnastics. I decided to take down the bedroom curtains and wash and iron them - it must be the antibiotics I'm taking for the sinusitis having a strange cleaning effect on me. After all its not something I would normally do!
This afternoon we took Ralph for his first trip to the Cotswold Wildlife Park, as we have annual tickets we can just pop in for an hour to walk the dogs, which is really nice. Pepper is always fascinated by the penguins and jumps up to watch them. Ralph couldn't reach - poor little thing. We came home to piano practice, cooking dinner and baking this evening.........



We were baking ready for our busy day tomorrow....walking the dogs early, driving to Banbury for the Jitterbug and Jive workshop at the Museum (hopefully I can take some photos), driving home for a piano lesson and then the first meeting of the book club is at our house straight after. We needed some cakes and biscuits to pass around for that!

  1. I'm shattered just reading that lot!!! lol.
    The book club sounds like great fun, Ethan is currently reading The Boy in the striped Pyjamas. He never really like reading until we found some titles that just gave him the bug. It's lovely to see kids enjoying a good book. :)
