Glad it went well. hope your journey home goes ok.
You have convinced me to look at the zcuts.
Am feeling pretty good / confident (ish) about it all now.
Good journey home, and then discovered that dsd2 is here for the night :j. Sooo lovely to see her.
Earthgirl - look on utube for zcut kettlebell, otherwise you get her cardio ones. Mariatulum (I think) has uploaded all 12 of them, and they were what I used to follow along to at the start.
Very glad to be home. Very glad to have a home to go to.NST March lion #8; NSD ; MFW9/3/23 Whoop Whoop!!!0 -
Dsd1 + hub + dgs are all here. Lovely to spend time with them.
Busy day ahead tomorrow, tho we are going 3 separate ways for most of it!
And then it will be sunday... drumroll ...and we'll see how that goes.NST March lion #8; NSD ; MFW9/3/23 Whoop Whoop!!!0 -
Up at 6. Sigh. So I got up and did zcut #12. 2 rounds = 13m 45.
Today is fair day. Good weather for it.
Dd will soon be off to town with big sis + hub to see a show. However, she is teary and sniffly and wants to be with mummy. Sigh. However, big sis paid a small fortune for the show tickets, so I want dd to go!
I know that dd - and I - are already rather worn out from having company!
We'll see how it pans out...NST March lion #8; NSD ; MFW9/3/23 Whoop Whoop!!!0 -
So, dd did go to the show, and she thoroughly loved every moment of it. Yay.
I went to my sch fair and thoroughly enjoyed myself. The weathrr was great and although I didn't sell as much as usual, I still came back with some profit, having had great catch-ups with some staff and parents.
Dh survived having the tornado of a gs, though he was pleased to hand over to me as soon as I walked in. Dgs is a total delight and very easy going.
Tomorrow, dd is going to the posh school for 6 hours; step dd1 etc are out for a very late lunch at 3 ish and step dd2 will come round here before they go as she is going with them; my next marking round starts so I'm supervising. (Or should that read 'the blind leading the blind...?)
A cooked bfast is on the cards. Yum!NST March lion #8; NSD ; MFW9/3/23 Whoop Whoop!!!0 -
A muggy head this morning. Dgs was upset etc from about 3.30am. And a police helicopter swung by our way a few times too.
Dd got up at 5.30 as she was wide awake. She has a full day of drama today, so no rest, poor thing. I must ensure she gets a very early night. And me too as I'll be out before 7 tomorrow for work.
Dgs has been put down for a nap and is letting us know that he aint impressed by the idea...NST March lion #8; NSD ; MFW9/3/23 Whoop Whoop!!!0 -
I came home with £44.20 profit from the fair yesterday. Not as good as other years, but it was such a lovely day out.NST March lion #8; NSD ; MFW9/3/23 Whoop Whoop!!!0

Dd loved the drama day.
I had 3 cups of (decaf) coffee plus ibu + paracetamol to even begin to function in the morning!
And today is a shock - not been at work since last Monday! Am pretty sure that it will be a super full-on day with nary time to draw breath.
Am looking at doing zcut power yoga. As well as being a heffalump, I'm not v flexible and have discounted yoga for yonks. But a zcut series, well that's a different matter completely! So I shall make time this month to watch them on utube and schedule them for July, along with the kettlebell ones.
By the time I return from work, it'll just be the 3 of us here again. Peace and quiet. But we'll miss them all! Though we'll not miss the amount we have spent on food...NST March lion #8; NSD ; MFW9/3/23 Whoop Whoop!!!0 -
Yep. Full on. But I enjoyed it. And I left bang on time to get home nice and early. Then spent the next 3+ hours on the phone. Dd has hardly had a word out of me.
Had a happy moment when I realised that I have not got 11 days to do all my marking; I have 18. Phew.
Have gluten-ed myself again. Silly moo. So feeling rather sick and am carrying around a bowl - for just-in-case. Sigh. Very much hoping not to need to use it...
Another hot day due tomorrow. Glad not to be at work.NST March lion #8; NSD ; MFW9/3/23 Whoop Whoop!!!0 -
£44 profit is brilliant work for the fayre.
Hope you are feeling better soon.15/5/12 Paid off Mortgage 1 (£220k) Bought Dream House:www: Dec 13 - Mortage 2 -£116,508. 15/7/18 Mortgage Free Again :j
Progress not Perfection0 -
Thank you.
Am much better, as it did go through me rather than up. But I opted out of breakfast, to give my gut a short break.
I did zcut #1, again, but did all of it with the 12k KB. 2 rounds took me 15m35. Boy, can I feel it.
Tomorrow, I plan to do the school run, then back to mark,then onto work (being observed) for a full-on day (weds always is, despite only working half of the day).
Happy with today's marking. May get up early and do some first thing, as have just realised that fri is an inset day for dd, so I want to spend time with her!NST March lion #8; NSD ; MFW9/3/23 Whoop Whoop!!!0
