Me

Chased round after loony child
administered first aid when bouncing inevitably lead to injury (sigh)
made “mixed race tortilla tea” which is Spanish tortilla (omlette) with Mexican style flour tortillas. One of the flour tortillas was actually round!
Remembered to get all the week’s School radio downloaded.
Bought an album off Napster - Spanish kids songs for Becca.

We did a lot of nothing really! She spent a good while jumping off carious bits of furniture onto floor cushions, turned her ankle and recovered only after milk, snickerdoodles (scrummy biccies) and Cebeeebies were administered to her “sick bed” aka the sofa. Then she jumped off more furniture, I think I may have mentioned her not very steep learning curve before…..

She also did some collage with a bag of bits from a friend, made a “head dress” from some cardboard covered with turkey foil (much stronger than normal tinfoil!) and liberally decorated wtih feathers, sequins and anything else she could find.

Some Christmas cards were written and decorated very modestly, sorry but this year it seems we are going for minimalist - 1 stamp, no colour so far! She is determined to do the lot herself though hence started already.

Some Singapore EB was done, she likes that. Some reading was attempted, she’s getting there, just like good old British Rail used to be….

The Horse and His Boy was finished and the next book (Prince Caspian) had to be placed in the “daytime story box” ready for tomorow. This one seemed to fizzle out a little in the last chapter which turned into a sort of “everyone lived happily ever after and Shasta, sorry Cor was a really good sort.”

Highlight of my day was managing to roll our one of the flour tortillas round rather tahn my normal array of odd shapes… sadly I have no idea what I did to make it round! Sigh
