Morning all
Today I'm thankful for not too much sunshine (as am working this morning(or supposed to))
For internet actually working still
For 80% fingers crossed for my agency work
For having a bike to fix up, even if it threw me at the kerb yesterday survived w just a couple of scratches
For all of us picking ourselves back up, giving a bit of space and actively working to not cause too much conflict/nagging/...
Am finding it hard to involve all of us in shared activities! But I guess it's fine as long as everybody mostly gets along.
Am currently rolling on £50 a week before digging into EF, but there should more bits of ££ coming in so fingers crossed.

Got of my bottom and actually did some things today so I'm feeling a lot more positive.
Gratitudes:
Meatballs and pasta for dinner.
Watching the elder of the wee ones doing her exercise outside (running superfast!).
Another two older children giggling and laughing last night whilst they got the chance to play outside. \it must be really difficult to keep them amused.
Facetime
My parsley is starting to grow.
Have adventures. laugh a lot and always be kind.8 -
Today I am grateful for learning more about Ms0ft teams, for starting a new set of workouts, for more badminton with dd - and we got dh involved too, for a clump of tulips looking stunning, for Ruby Redfort books, for myneedlefelted dinosaurs looking a little more dinosaur-y an a little less sausage dog-y!
