f0xh0les it's normal for your children to think you're mad. One of the fun parts of being a parent is to embarrass them.

Evening
Stayed up till midnight last night finishing off some work - can now submit my invoice
Achieved an NSD today. Went into work, nice chats with boss. Achieved a fair bit. Had a chat with my friend over lunch - she is still on cloud 9 about her MoHo travel plans
Came home and had a nice catch up with DD1. Rang SM as it is her birthday.
Going for a short walk while it is light - it's a dry evening here with lots of blue sky.
Back in work tomorrow
Gratitudes - nice boss, catching up with work friend at lunch, sprout curry for tea - it's not just for sproutmas

Thanks for doing June @mothernerd.
Felt sick when I first woke up, but soon passed, so managed to do some exercises. Work went ok. Helped DS2 fill in his college course application, so another thing ticked off the list! Sewed a memory bear after tea, then did the dishes. Managed 2 rows of crochet, off to bed shortly.
Grateful for doing exercises, laughs with a pupil this afternoon, a happy customerUse it up, wear it out
Make do or do without!
If you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours 😃

Do what will make you
