Busy busy day......the morning was spent doing 'school work' with Abigail....mainly math - working on money. She finished one of the math workbooks she got for Christmas! So we filled out the certificate of achievement that came with the book.
I started work on some projects for Valentines Day....using felt and buttons :)
We cleaned out the craft cupboards ( we have three craft cupboards in the kitchen - full of all kinds of craft supplies for the kids...from glue and glitter to candle making kits, volcano kits, paper plates, beads, foam shapes, feathers etc etc.....while we sorted it all out, Sam played with the building straws...and the two of them sat at the table and drew on the Magic Wonder paper or whatever its called......it's black and the pens make the colours show up.....and then they used the scratch art supplies to colour some butterflies.....
Oh and then we found a HUGE rtoll of paper and they took turns to let me draw around them on the paper....
After lunch we went for a walk and then when the kids got home from school I went for a run....more about that on my running blog.
What else? I soaked in the bath for a while and read.....did some laundry, cleaning.....fun fun fun!
Lloyd got home and we went in to town. We stopped at Timmys for supper - I had the new Tuscan Vegetable Soup with a wholegarin bun - yummy soup!!! TRy it!!! Really healthy - 1.5g of fat only! and 5g of fibre.....which is a good thing as I finished off with a Honey Cruller donut ;)
After that we went to Costco to get the groceries......bloody store was empty of stock! Luckily it was also empty of people - I love going on Monday nights - so quiet! I picked up a book - the one about Jane Austens Memoirs...but I put it back...I have so many to read right now....
Came home and I separated all the meat - what a gross job that is.....We buy massive packs of minced beef and chicken and then I separate them into smaller packs to freeze...but grabbing handfuls of minced beef makes me feel sick!
Not a very exciting day but we seemed to do a lot and so thats a good thing!
I have videos to post!
