Another month rushes past

It is about a month since I last wrote here and it has been a roller coaster month. At the end of September we went to the Scottish staff conference, which gave a really good opportunity to see what is going on in the nation.
After that there was a spell of family sickness. One of my friends for 20 years + finally tied the knot to a very nice lady. So I got to see the family togged up in kilts...(with the exception of me)
While at the wedding in Aberdeen the hotel fire alarm was set off at midnight, so I had to wake the kids and check that it was a false alarm ( which it was) However the alarm stayed on for an hour.
Now it is half term and I have 2 kids to appease.
My eldest I think is missing school.....we have sums before breakfast!! The joy and eagerness of learning! I had started a news letter but that has been shelved until the "normal routine commences. Ha what is normal!

Stuff the washing.....let's take time out

Last night I did my regular street pastors rota night. So around 9pm I set off to start the shift and got in around 4.15 am. This morning there were 101 things to do but apart from my needing a lie in, it also happened to be our anniversary and hubby's birthday.

I did get a bit of a lie in (after the kids woke at 7....and we opened the presents.)

The last week was 2 rolled into 1 long week. So today it was stuff the house, the washing and anything else.......it was family time.

I am such a lucky woman....God gave me a superb man to love.

So today was family lunch, soft play ( always a winner) and films.
Housework can wait, work can wait ....family is first today.....Knowing I am truly blessed!!!!
