I’m all for reducing plastic, but replacing curling ribbon with paper which doesn’t tie or curl somewhat defeats the purpose of it even existing… ?!

I think aside from food and some Santa specific wrapping paper, I may have just finished my Christmas shopping! Annoyed I did a lot online but shopping with two kids in tow and trying to do things secretly would be a logistical nightmare….. 🫣

Never thought I’d be jealous of a child, but H’s ability to just lie down, head on the pillow, and be out cold snoring in 10mins flat is beyond impressive. It’s a real talent that if he could bottle it would be worth millions 😂

Maybe I’m just a bit of a boomer deep down, but I keep seeing those photo edit groups come up on Facebook. Can we not just enjoy photos for the beautiful moments they are without the need for perfection?

M has completed a fair chunk of her sponsored walk “around” the Amazon, and we have seen a Jaguar!
I know it’s Christmas and times are tough but even £1 can make a difference before Feb for her in accessing support and care.

Trying to think of even semi decent presents for the kids seems more and more impossible each year. Even a look round the toy shop it’s just largely plasticky tat… 🤷🏼♀️ I have lovely ideas and stuff for smaller bits but I am stumped…

Had big plans of productivity today, except H got up overnight from a nightmare, and it’s Monday Morning (I didn’t factor in it being Monday).
Only one thing for it: watch an episode of Hoarders to motivate myself…

“God it’s so hot in here isn’t it?” (It was not hot in here 😂 )
I also had some bits of potato so that’s on me tbh. (A fellow nightshade)

The biggest downside to children is that I - Middle Aged and run down having looked after H who was poorly all week) - is very much ready for bed at 6pm on a Friday.
M - not middle aged - has a drawing book set up and is very much the opposite of tired 😂

Imagine commandeering an emotional well-being meeting for a child because it’s “your right” and your input is “having too much time to think about something”.
Very anti-therapy. Very anti her support system.
Groundbreaking. No notes. Very 1970s vintage.

Illness struck H down for a few days and in the last few hours demolished a packet of baby cucumbers, a bowl of tofu and sweetcorn noodles, a packet of breadsticks, and a brownie… I think he’s feeling better!
