Today you are being treated (or not!) to a guest blogger …. It’s Sally, so get ready for worse than usual banter, very average puns and probably quite atrocious spelling and grammar! We spent Friday morning recovering from Jacks birthday celebrations which involved hunting down the ping pong balls which had gone missing during the game of beer pong Quidditch. …
Our last lock down birthday of the year and hopefully the last lock down birthday full stop. Wednesday was spent almost entirely doing birthday preparations, I think Jack had forgotten what I looked like by the end of the day. He did meet a friend for a long walk around the country park and came back a lovely shade of…
I had a very restless night’s sleep (I am not a fan of sleeping in this sticky heat!) so decided an extra hour in bed would be beneficial, mainly for everyone else’s sanity. I therefore missed out on the intensive cardio workout that Mum and Amy did (oh what a shame!). It was my turn to be social yesterday and…
I’m a bit behind on the old blogs, which is a struggle when you can’t even remember what you ate for breakfast. Sunday was a lazy one, as the best Sunday’s are. Mum and I felt a bit house bound so decided to make the most of the nice weather and take a walk up to the country park. The…
Another bank holiday weekend rolls around, they should really just bank them and let us have them when this shit show is over. On Friday morning Jack and I got our bake on and made some cookies for a friend’s birthday. We worked surprisingly well in the kitchen together, we did have to get some advice from Baking Connoisseur Amy…
We have managed to survive the heat these past few days (just) and only escaped with very mild sunburn (go us!). Wednesday may have been one of my favourite days of lock down. We have been talking about making a slip and slide for a few weeks but never felt it was quite warm enough to warrant getting out the…
I thought I’d get in there early today before my head implodes in the heat, heat and Megan are not a great combination. The morning workout was more successful than the day previous, with no worry of anyone popping up at the window. We did a ‘sexy’ cardio workout. Can say we’ve never looked sexier. We rotated between inside cool…
Our morning workout was somewhat disturbed by the window cleaners. We didn’t fancy an audience, both for our and their sanity, so we moved into Amy’s bedroom with the curtains drawn. Amy’s room has much less space and is carpeted which doesn’t bode well for anything on the floor, carpet burns were an extra addition to the pain of a…
The big 60, that call for a party or something? Mum and dad got their gardening on yesterday, strimming and cutting the hedges. Mum came in at one point and had to empty her bra out into the bin because she had half the hedge in there. Meanwhile the ‘children’ played games. We started with a bit of netball, the…
Another Friday rolls around again, the cabin fever is really starting to set in now but we’re still powering through. Friday was fuelled by Amy’s sourdough lemon cake, which was absolutely delicious. It had a kind of iced bun taste and texture to it which made for a very happy Megan who has not yet found gluten free iced buns.…
