Food: Mother’s Day Brunch at CΓ΄te Brasserie

Change4Life Food Scanner: Making better food choices

1st February 201810th February 2020

One of my biggest parenting challenges is around food; snacking on the wrong things, not getting a balanced diet, and being unwilling to try new things. Literally every dinner time is a cause of stress for me in one way or another. My meal plans are boring and uninspiring (well, to me anyway- the kids… Read More

Mid-jump Arlo waving a large stick around! He look Mid-jump Arlo waving a large stick around! He looks like he's hovering... what's the spell? Levi-OH-sa! I found it when I was moving my pictures off my phone to a hard drive, which I hadn't done for over a year πŸ™ˆ has anyone else just let general life admin slide this past year? I mean, it's not like I've been rushed off my feet with social appointments or holidays is it? I'm just lazy. 
Very much looking forward to Monday, no kids at home, Zoom plans for work without the prospect of being interrupted for snacks. JOYOUS!! Happy Friday fellow home-school parents, WE DID IT! πŸ™ŒπŸ™ŒπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ₯³πŸ₯³

The sheer joy of a sunset stroll. πŸŒ… One week to The sheer joy of a sunset stroll. πŸŒ…
One week today we'll be ready to head out on the school run for the first time this year.  It'll definitely be a shock to the system. Then (if all goes well, please cross your fingers!) We should be moving 2 weeks after that. I've not even looked at  school places in the new town- I'm happy to drive them back and forth for a little while to give them some stability again. 
How are you all feeling about things being slowly lifted?

Put ya feet up! πŸ‘£ (Ad|Gifted) I put my feet up Put ya feet up! πŸ‘£
(Ad|Gifted) I put my feet up today, with a good book, a hot cuppa and some chocolate malted milk biscuits. With so much going on right now (homeschooling, impending house move, sorting removals, chasing solicitors, work, so on and forth) it was nice to switch off for a while, won't happen again once the kids are back at (home)school next week! 
These very cosy slippers from @bedroomathletics are ideal for me, they have a furry lining, suede uppers and are as comfy as you can get- perfect for all these days at home and ideal for standing packing all my boxes as they have a moulded foot bed- this old lady needs to support her feet these days!

I've got hardly any photos of him recently apart from ones where he's asleep with the cat, or being pissed off the cat has leapt on his keyboard and wreaked havoc. Anyway,  happy 33rd Sammy!
