I am nearly blind from sewing on nearly 85,000 new name tags. My children are stressed and will all be completely grumpy and exhausted in the morning when I have to wake them up about 8 hours earlier than they have been up all summer holiday. Does anybody have a megaphone I can borrow?
All three of them go back to school tomorrow. My youngest child is starting a new school and is very nervous. So am I on his behalf. I really want him to love it, so that he can feel settled and happy and we don’t have worry about thoughts of moving him to another school in the future.
Fingers and toes crossed.
I have been clearing out their rooms in the last few days in an effort to uncover desks and bits of furniture that may be conducive to working effectively in their bedrooms after school. I’ve discovered all sorts of things I didn’t know they had. So far the best thing is this pair of shorts found in my teenage son’s room that my youngest son found and then donned before I had a chance to confiscate them.
Good grief – he obviously got them during the world cup…..whilst on his boys on tour trip. At first I thought it was an image of a lion, but on closer inspection….:-

I’d love to see the lions you’ve seen Lulu.

Hilarious!

Splatted wine all over the screen. (It’s evening here.)
We don’t go back till Sept. 10th.
Pray for me.

Oh my!
Maybe he shouldn’t wear those to school.
