Family (of more than one kind…hm)

Spent yesterday afternoon sorting through Christmas presents - better than I expected. I’m still waiting for my order from Hawkins Bazaar, so fingers crossed that arrives soon, but apart from that, I have only two people left to buy for - both pre-teen girls. What do you buy a pre-teen girl? I don’t do girls! Boys? No problem. Girls? Eh? What?

Still haven’t wrapped any gifts or even sorted out the cards - the plan is to attack those jobs this afternoon, as well as doing a haircut session for George, Freddy and Jack.

Yesterday was a “longer” day than usual, because there was no trampoline class for George in the morning - it usually runs to 11.45, which kind of cuts the amount of time available for doing other things, because we can’t go somewhere for the whole day. There was some kind of show on at the leisure centre yesterday, so the trampoline class had been moved to Friday evening, which suited us very well, because not only were Scratchy and Barney headed that way to play basketball anyway, but it got George away from me on Friday evening :roll: He and Barney and Jack still had swimming yesterday, but their classes are done by 9.30, so the day just felt like there were more hours in it than usual.

Have been flickring like a madwoman - nearly 1500 photos uploaded since Tuesday or Wednesday. Will have them all tagged soon… and have already got some comments on some of them. I particularly liked the comment on one photo of Jack on his third birthday - “my god she is an angle” :lol:

Oh, and I phoned my mother. She’s coming to visit next Sunday. So that’ll be a couple of hours of biting my tongue very, very hard, preceded by a week of no sleep for me. Wish me luck - I’ll need it :-/

In: education, family, giggle, social stuff

Have noticed your mad flickring! Hadn’t seen the comment though!

wrt girly presents - craft kits, jewellery kits, stationery, um, embroidery kits, notecards, um, jewellery or similar accessories, smellies - does that help?
