I just love this scene!

We’ve all been there…

Today I took Dustbunny’s new pink scooter with me when I went to pick her up from Nursery. 

She was really excited as it seems to be the craze at the moment. (Im getting very good at avoiding collisions with hundreds of scooting kids now!) 

After Nursery, it’s a bit quieter, so I thought I’d let her scoot home too. She did pretty well – only managed to fall off three times! 

She loved it though!

I know it’s only been one week of ‘normality’ but I’ve spent most of it in some sort of zombie-like state – not that much different from my normal state really…

However, we’ve all reached Friday relatively unscathed (except Dopedaddy who has been off sick since Tuesday.) 

When I went up to collect Mophead from school just now, I took her new scooter with me which she got from Santa. Most of the kids have them at the moment and they’re light and fun. 

She asked me to take it with me yesterday so she could scoot home, however I forgot – I was most certainly in the bad books!

The upside of it all is that we did actually get home a lot faster rather that the usaul dawdle home!

Once again managed to get the munchkins out of the house in time for School & Nursery! Although Mophead did have to run from the school gate as her class were going in! 

Dopeydaddy, after one day back to work is back at home ill. 

It’s also very very icy and slippery outside – black ice everywhere

January 5th and everything is back to ‘normal’ again. For once we managed to get everyone up and out of the house and off to school/Nursery/work  in good time without the stress levels hitting their usual high! 

Feels a bit funny with the house being so quiet now after 3 weeks of bustle. 

Time for the first uninterrupted cup of tea of the year… (probably the ONLY untinterrupted cup of tea of the year!) 

Unless the phone rings of course….

Well, it had to happen sooner or later that the Festive bugs would catch up with me!

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year!
