No one cares what I had for lunch...

..or so it seems according to my darling youngest son  It was my birthday a few days ago and sadly I'm at that age where it's difficult to get excited anymore and just be grateful to get through another year. Our family have always tended to by funny gifts for each other. I don't think weither of my sons have ever read my blog. In fact I hope they haven't as I don't want them finding out too much about what i get up to! Also if he had read it then it might be why he thought I needed the book- to help me spice up my blog.

Anyway before I drift on onto another subject let me get back to what i was talking about. 'No one Cares What You Had for Lunch' was the title of the book YS gave me.
So folks I will be trying in the next few weeks to make my blog more interesting. Not that I ever told you what I had for lunch only dinner somedays, did I? Lunch is something I rarely get time to induldge in on work days anyway. Whoops, there I go again ,off at a tangent. Better stop rambling now before I end up telling you about the soggy chocolate chip cookie I had for lunch today. x

That was the week that was.

A fabulous week and I did everything on my list and more.  My only complaint is that it over far too quickly.

As well as lots of cooking, sewing , cleaning and shopping I finally read a book I bought back in the Summer holidays, and discovered some new places in Kent. I also slept better than I have for a long time. 

Now for the busy term at school. So back to the hetic, chaotic life  I normally lead. It's a good thing I love Christmas.

I think Harley also enjoyed having me at home  and may just miss me tomorrow.

Hope your week was as good.  x

School holidays hurray !

A whole week off work and I intend to do some baking

go and do a little shopping

I suppose I will have to do some washing

but of course I will find some time for sewing

What ever you are doing have a good weekend and enjoy your week xx

"When you wish upon a star

Makes no difference who you are

Anything your heart desires

Will come to you

If your heart is in your dream

No request is too extreme

When you wish upon a star

As dreamers do

Fate is kind

She brings to those who love

The sweet fulfillment of

Their secret longing

Like a bolt out of the blue

Fate steps in and sees you through

When you wish upon a star

Your dreams come true..."

Hats

Here are the hats I knitted. They are with all the others knitted and collected by  Josie-Mary on her blog.Pop over and have a look. Can you see any of mine?

The end of a busy week

Last week I went on two trips with school.Yes two.The first one was with Years R, 1 & 2 was to Wildwood near Canterbury. On Thursday it was with Years 3 &; 4 to the Science Museum. I thoroughly enjoyed both and felt fortunate to be able to go with them. Their faces were a picture when they saw something new or discovered something they hadn't seen before.
My Dads & Staff team played football yesterday against a rival school and we won 4-0. Considering they have only been together a few weeks they are very good.  Next is to start a mums and staff netball team. I wonder if many will be interested, 
I'm off on a crafting day on Tuesday as part of my job. I'm really looking forward to that.

Little things mean a lot

My job is a roller coaster ride and I never know when I arrive in the morning what the day ahead has in store. This morning I opened the doors of the school and was greeted by a parent who had this lovely gift for me that she had made herself.  Apparantly I looked tired yesterday. I must admit I felt it but thought nobody could tell. It's little things like that make it all worth while.
