Embracing the new family dynamics and looking forward to the future with optimism

Savvy, I hope you manage to fit a bit of 'me time' in too!

Me time is the walk back from the school with no kids in tow, and the saunter to the post office to post parcels.
Its the ten minutes break to eat my lunch, and to gaze out the window at next doors dog chasing butterflies.
All good.
27 of the masks finished. 13 to go.

I didn't finish the 13. I think I did another 7 totally finished and the rest half done, but my hand/knuckles were swelling too much and the Ibrufen gel was not helping enough so I had to give up. Luckily the menu plan was pizza from the freezer so not hard to do.
 I am already sitting in bed. I have been reading but I am tired so I am going to switch to my meditation tapes, taken the pain killers and I am going to sleep already. If I am not too hot!

Cut yourself a little slack, Ss, you are doing well - hope that the boys are still enjoying the sunshine x

Boys happy as Larry.
missing Dgd and her teenage grumps.
didnt count the masks made, but filled several orders. Even had more orders and several complements for those received.
 I have decided that I will call the fracture clinic tomorrow and see if I can get an appointment as my hand is looking rather deformed and is definitely more painful than it should be 8 weeks (nearly) down the line. It doesn't matter how many pain killers I have taken the pain wins.

Sorry to hear about your poor hand S_s - I expect it should have had a lot more rest than you've been able to give it

You are probably right!
unfortunately I am guilty of being a doer and not able to relax and rest. Even though I try.
Not sure where the last hour went. I better go to bed.
Night all.

Sleep well Savvy.

Dgs2 didn't wake up last night! Yeah. The pair woke about 6.15 this morning. So I had a good night.
this morning I have done the bathroom , kitchen and two loads of washing. We are all up and dressed, and we are going to play in the garden soon. Bit early for the neighbours yet.
There's no holiday club today.
