I’ve just managed to get out of cooking this Christmas! Last night I managed to trip up, bash my face and fracture both wrists on my way to the bathroom! Won’t be driving anytime soon either but at least I’m channeling my inner Rudolf 😢

That is so true! Whenever I’m complimented on what I’m wearing it makes it so much better when I can say, “and it’s got pockets...”, and then I do this weird little demonstration with the pockets.....

My eldest son has just asked me where he can buy some flowers on his way to work. They are for a colleague whose elderly dog has died and he knows she will be struggling. 🥺 💕

Everyday I get up first, have a cup of tea and relax.
OH joins me and one of the first things he says is, “What’s the plan of action for today?”
He hasn’t said it yet, which is good because it makes me want to hit him...

That’s lovely Emma, makes me think about this poem. We never know what is going on in children’s lives.
I get so stressed if I am late that I’ve even made excuses not to attend stuff rather than turn up late. Having a bad start to your day is horrible. 😞

We were asked what we would dream of having in our Early Years settings and I said “a boat”. At the risk of sounding all Noel Edmonds, look what happens when you put things out into the universe!

Relaxing in the hammock with a little girl during today’s session, she asked me to “Come and play with me”
“But I don’t know how to play, what should I do?”
She gave me a daisy,
“Just hold this, go for a walk and take it on an adventure….”

Sorry your daughter’s cold but ventilated classrooms are required to keep children & school staff as safe as possible. Teachers feel cold too & are terrified everyday, (trying not to show it) that the children in their care will fall ill, pass COVID on to the vulnerable & die😠

Being Bastards is in our job description. We make our male hooman get up at 5.30am & then chase any bird that dares to land in our garden. As eldest Schnauzer I chewed up the female hoomans shoe & ate her new bottle of cuticle remover this week, didn’t even get a thank you.

Watching my 24 old son in wonder, getting ready to go to a Fire Risk Assessment Meeting at a care home in Dorking.
In awe of his confidence & professionalism & remembering the angry & anxious 17 year old who started his apprenticeship over 7 years ago. So very proud 🥲

The children wanted to carry on exploring the flowers at Forest School this afternoon. We tried some Hapa Zome (leaf bashing). They loved using the hammer, pounding the flowers, developing their hand/eye & arm coordination, using upper body strength 😊

Today our Little People collected cobbles & made a Dinosaur Nest.
We played “What’s the Time Mr Wolf” & “Hot Chocolate” - lots of screaming & running about. One group of boys enjoyed excavating tiny river rocks with garden forks... I STILL don’t understand any of their rules! 🤷♀️

Taking the log dogs to Forest School, I’m predicting the eyes & ears will be picked off within 5 minutes but I think I actually prefer the hand drawn ones anyway! My own dogs were not happy that I’ve stolen their toy basket 😂

I hate to say it but some of the worst menopause ridicule and ignorance that I’ve experienced has been from other women sadly. Thank you for taking the time to learn more.
