What have we done today?

We have had a mixed day.  I was on the late duty with B and then awake early for a GP appointment, so not the best combo!

B worked on Maths and English first thing, followed by some time on the computer with Minecraft.  Pip read to Dave and played with Lego.  She was off school today as she has been struggling with an unrelenting cough and had spent the weekend very tired and weepy.

We decided to make the best of the sunshine and had a drive to Barton Grange for a soup and roll lunch.  Aunty Judith payed for the treat courtesy of a Barton Grange Christmas Gift Card and it was very much appreciated.  Benedict made tea which was a quorn and vegetable bolognese with pasta twists.  After tea I walked Pip to Rainbows and snapped a beautiful sunset, which I cannot upload right now as I am typing from my phone!

Despite certain family members feeling a little grouchy, we did hit some of our proposed targets, namely the core subjects and the big wide world.  I am hoping for a better nights sleep tonight as we will be up early again tomorrow with the school run and taking Dave to the station; he is on his next round of treatment in Edinburgh.

Hooray for sunshine! I'm glad you had a nice outing and treat. It sounds like you're on a nice rhythm despite the late night. You'll be in our thoughts for a good night's sleep and Dave too for his treatment. Greg and I have been struggling with early mornings also as the dog wakes anywhere between 3 am and 5 am these days! Usually we go back to sleep, but as you know, a broken up night makes a tired next day :)
