Mud & Mischief

Just our way of home educating our three girls; assisted by an allotment, a Land Rover and a heap of ingenuity.

Busy day - again

Had a car-ed day - seemed to spend half of it on the road anyhow. First to Kirsty's to drop off her laminator, (borrowed via Jax), then whizz into Sheffield to see Barbara for an hour. They were going to Bradway though, so we left them at lunchtime and headed to Chesterfield to visit with Sarah & co.

Would have liked to go to Bradway, as they were making sock puppets, but we're still in self-imposed quarantine due to chicken pox. Actually, we're a day or so in the clear now, as the particular strain we were exposed to makes itself known 14 days after contamination, but we thought we'd err on the safe side, especially with Kessingland coming up.

However, there are no spots visible yet, so it seems we've escaped the pox yet again. Must be the third exposure since February, and Tea and Piglet still haven't caught them. Myf had them when she was 10 months old, so fingers crossed will be immune.

At least we're clear for Thursday - it's Doncaster's first Home Ed meeting, at the Point. 12.30 to 3.30, for those who want to know. Guess I'd better post it on a few lists.

Borrowed a set of 'Bob' reading books from Barbara. See if that gets Myf reading. Especially as Barbara's E sat and read the first book to me, with Myf looking on in astonishment. Hmm - wonder if I've awakened a competitive streak in her. Or if she'll just sulk and pout that E can do it and not her. :::sigh:::

And very pleasant it was to see you! The kids got on well, no fighting, no arguments - well, none serious enough to need referreeing! And we got to drink tea and put the world to rights.
