Rain rain go away

Filed under: Home Ed

I don’t feel like we’ve got an awful lot done today. This morning we had to be out by 10.45. Before that M just managed to finish some maths about gallons and pints and he wrote a letter to his grandma and grandad. He even wrote in his address at the top of the paper and composed and spelled everything more or less himself. His writing is really coming on at the moment.

As we drove towards town the sky got more and more black and it pelted down with rain and hail. There was a slight let up as I parked and got a ticket and then it tipped it down again as I was getting L out of the car. I fastened him on as fast as I could and zipped him up in my coat so he was fine, except he didn’t appreciate not being able to see out. So we dripped our way into the homeopath for our return visit. It went well and we discussed where we wanted to go next with everything.

Afterwards we walking in to the shops and got some lunch in a cafe and then went to the bank to cancel some direct debits and pay in a cheque. Came back via a stationery shop where I bought M a scraperfoil kit to try and some charity shops where I found some books. It was gone 3 by the time we got home again and the whole day was gone. M did a bit of scraperfoiling but it wasn’t going to his satisfaction and then he played on the computer.

I did manage to hang out a bit more washing for the rain to rain on. I planted out my beans, then stood up from planting and hit my head on the bird bath, tipping dirty bird-pooey water down the back of my head and neck. Yuck! So I came in and had a shower while A made pizza for tea.
