Thursdays are funny days I’ve decided. They are definitely beyond the hump day but they certainly aren’t the start of the weekend quite yet. They are just a day sitting there waiting to be completed like a really difficult level on a computer game. In my experience they start really slowly and then get fasterContinue reading “DAY 114 – 9 July 2020”

There are a lot of ways to wake up that sets you up nicely for the day. There are also lots of ways to wake up which makes you think it’s not going to be a good day at all! Today’s wake up call was a constant bleeping which, upon a hazy investigation, turned outContinue reading “DAY 113 – 8 July 2020”

For the first time in a long time Daddy Daycare took centre stage as Steph headed into the office for the first time in over 3 months. I’m surprised I’m still awake this evening as they ran me ragged and I’m not quite sure where the time went.We had a list of jobs Daddy reallyContinue reading “DAY 112 – 7 July 2020”

111 days seems like a lot of days to share your daily comings and goings with the world but somehow here we are. And a Monday to boot. Boy, everyone loves a Monday! Back to #RemoteWorking, back to #HomeSchooling and back to juggling a hundred balls at once!After a really fun weekend we did come down to earthContinue reading “DAY 111 – 6 July 2020”

Well, there we have it. Sunday night and a chance to look back and ask again how it is possible for a weekend to disappear so quickly?Today was a big day for lots of reasons, most of which feature in the top 5 below. I just knew it was going to be a good oneContinue reading “DAY 110 – 5 July 2020”

So the pubs, restaurants and hairdressers are open today but we didn’t visit any of those. In fact, we are still in our little bubble doing exactly the same as we have been doing for the last 108 days. I’m sure we will venture out at some point as we can’t stay in lockdown forever!InContinue reading “DAY 109 – 4 July 2020”

And in a flash another week of work is done and we all have a weekend to look forward to. A wet July weekend. The joy! At least we can go the pub tomorrow although personally I couldn’t think of anything less appealing at present. Instead we will be doing our usual of being antiContinue reading “DAY 108 – 3 July 2020”

When I sat down to write today’s diary entry I was trying to think of how to sum up the day. It’s been difficult mainly because my children are refusing to go to sleep which manifests either with just coming downstairs constantly or, in the case of the youngest, screaming until we feel we haveContinue reading “DAY 107 – 2 July 2020”

Wet Wednesdays are never a joy but at least we are over the hump. Today marked the big day of Steph’s return to work and in true style she designed some shift patterns that involved her starting at 7am and finishing at 8pm. I don’t know where she gets it from but she’s such aContinue reading “DAY 106 – 1 July 2020”

Tuesday ✅ Not just any Tuesday however. The end of yet another month in lockdown and the end of Steph’s furlough. Tomorrow is going to present a whole new challenge as suddenly we will see the return of shift working and Daddy returning to the classroom. Actually it’s not a whole new challenge at all, and seemsContinue reading “DAY 105 – 30 June 2020”
