School Holidays








I have been so lucky this holiday to spend some real (quality) time with Phoebe and Hollie.

Cinema, farm and park visits have been very successful and most enjoyable.  

Had a couple of unplanned incidents - a hosepipe in the back garden proved too much for Hollie despite being told to leave it alone.  Result - two very wet girls at 8.45 am.  Not a good start to the day.
  



This is the second day at the farm for me.  Phoebe and I went last week on our own to assess suitability, I was not sure I could manage both of them on a farm, but it was fine.

Much fun had on this giant pillow.  


Holls Molls on a pony.  






This photo was taken on our first trip to the farm last week.  She was laughing at the cheeky sheep trying to nick everything out of her bucket.




Chick time.

Hollie's beautiful locks.  I was so taken with them I had to have a photograph, so glad I did, Catherine had them cut off the very next day!!!

The Bullet Journal concept has lead to the rediscovery of this very old Blog from 2004, last updated in 2012! Restarted in time for another Olympics.

How life goes in circles.

I have come across this blog after researching the concept of  'Bullet Journals' - a handwritten; bulletted; illustrated, system for tidying, organising and prioritising stuff in your life.

I've been to Smiths to buy the necessary writing tools, have spent a couple of days looking at what might be involved in creating the journal and I'm just about ready to put pen to paper.

I look forward to updating you all more regularly, using the journal as an aide memoire, so here goes.
