I am thinking ... how lovely it is to be able to sit out in the garden with my laptop.
From the learning rooms ... a school trip to the Natural History Museum in London for Star tomorrow.
I am thankful ... for a summer worthy of the name, and hoping it stays that way.
From the kitchen ... chicken fricassee in the crockpot, a new recipe I am trying for the first time, and cheesy scones made with Cherub before she went to
I am wearing ... cropped beige trousers, pink vest, black flip-flops. It's hot!
I am creating ... working up the leg of the second of a pair of socks. It's slow progress, but at least it is progress.
I am going ... to play with the template of my blog. Time to move on from spring bluebells to something more summery. Watch this space!
I am reading ... Buried Treasure: Travels Through the Jewel Box by Victoria Finlay.
I am hoping ... to get into better eating habits. More fruit and veg, and less of everything else. I don't have a particularly junky diet, I just eat too much.
I am hearing ... leaves rustling in the breeze, a distant train and a little traffic noise.
Around the house ... a large fridge-freezer in the kitchen waiting to be plumbed in, and the old, working fridge-freezer in the dining room.
One of my favorite things ... a jug of cold Pimm's on a summer afternoon.
A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week ... girls' night out to an Indian restaurant on Wednesday, with Angel, Star, K-, J- and A-Next-Door and Cherub's friend N's mum; trip to Thorpe Park (theme park) with all three of my girls on Friday as the older two have a day off school (no roller coasters for me this time as Cherub is coming); dance show dress rehearsal for the girls and band concert for me on Sunday.
A Picture Thought I Am Sharing ... you push me ...
And I'll push you ...
The Simple Woman is away for the summer, but you can find links to other daybooks here.
Cute pictures! What exactly is Pimm's? Sounds good if you're going to have a jug in the fridge!
