Black and blue is soooo attractive
Toby has a runny nose and a rattly-in-his-throat cough, and all night long every time he nursed, he’d start coughing a minute or so later - which made for a very disturbed night. I was so tired this morning that I thought we’d better get stuck in as soon as possible, before I fell over. So I started the boys doing some bookwork right after breakfast - and as with yesterday, they did masses of it. We covered history, geography, Latin, French, maths, science, and lots and lots of writing. Barney and George blogged, and I had to laugh when I saw what George wrote. Talking about the bruise he got from the accident at Cub Camp a week ago: “I’ve got a big bruise on my chin - wanna see it?”, then he’s inserted a photo of it, followed by the words, “Nice, isn’t it?” I guess black-and-blue is the new black 
Then he’s put in a photo of a picture Freddy drew, and afterwards typed, “Odd but great.” 
Since we all left the house so tidy yesterday, someone took it upon themselves today to sprinkle blender-ised porridge oats (intended for use in the bath) over the living-room floor 
After cleaning that up and discovering jigsaw-puzzle pieces and bits of Harry Potter Trivial Pursuit mixed in with all the other masses of stuff on George and Freddy’s bedroom floor, I decided I wasn’t leaving it any longer. I think it probably took about an hour-and-a-half to clean it up - but I don’t expect it will stay tidy for much longer than that…
Scratchy has just blown a fuse - the electrical kind, not the kind I blew when I found the porridge oats today 
- so I’m hoping he gets the power back on before my laptop battery dies and I lose this post
