Windy and wet (and the weather's not great either!)

The Leap Year Blanket is still on track - woohoo :)

Square 3:

Yes, it's a bit squiffy but maybe once it's edged and joined .................. we'll see :)


Square 4:


My favourite one so far :) - pattern is here

So we're not quite ready to start back with any "official" home ed yet.  We've mooched around a bit on Studyladder, Reading Eggs and Education City, looked into some ballet classes for Missymoops and Rainbows - and Cubs/Scouts for the Bean so a bit of gentle integration with "people" :)

We've been in touch with some friends who we "grew apart" from towards the latter part of last year so now is the time to build bridges and accept that we're all different and embrace everyone for who we/they are :)

Apart from a small dose of the lurgy, 2012 has started happy and healthy - and long may it continue.

Still awaiting course materials for the Beauty Therapy course - I really have ZERO patience ;) :D

Healthy eating/weight loss is going well - if we don't count those half a dozen chocolate digestives whilst watching Mamma Mia tonight!! :D :D - but hey, we all need a treat sometimes huh??!

New Year, New Me (AGAIN)

So 2012 is here before we know it - this year's plans:

1. Start Beauty Therapy course.
2. Lose weight (again! :D )
3. Start (and complete) the Leap Year Blanket
4. Have some major meltdowns over autonomous Home Ed - then realise all's good and carry on

So I enrolled for the Beauty Therapy course - now I've just got to wait for their office to open before I get my coursework - quite excited and REALLY looking forward to it and getting out and about and playing/practising on people! :) :)

Two squares completed on Leap Year Blanket.
Square one:

Pattern is here.


Square two:
Pattern is here.

So far, so good - but we're only on day 2 so far!! :) :) xxx
