Who’s Normal Anyway?

It’s been raining here all day, all grey and miserable. M had a disturbed night’s sleep so we were all a bit groggy first thing. We’ve done lots of washing (hurray for tumble driers - til we get the leckie bill) and bits at home. M did some maths about division and may possibly have finally clicked the interchangeable pairs of numbers thing (can I be bothered to go look up what it’s called?) e.g. 24 divided by 8 is 3 so 24 div 3 is 8 etc. But I’m not counting my chickens just yet, in case he “ungets it” tomorrow LOL. Then he did some writing stuff and we did some German on the computer. We’ve also played computer games and watched a few Class TV programmes about Islam and Ramadan.

Early in the afternoon we had a drive out to the supermarket for a few bits, mainly for yogurt for a recipe I wanted to try, but I managed to spend nearly £20 on other bits and bobs. L fell asleep in the car so M stayed with him and listened to James and the Giant Peach courtesy of the Telegraph while I quickly shopped. When we got home L stayed asleep and M and I did some housework and then he did Lego for a while.

When L got up we all made naan bread dough together in the kitchen. L wanted to help measure out yogurt and stir it all together but he ended up wearing quite a bit of mixture. I don’t mind the mess but his leg came up in hives . M did a great job with the kneading and we had naans with curry for tea.

This evening M has gone out for his second evening of Cubs and tonight they are doing their Cycling badges so he’s gone with his bike and helmet and a raincoat. Meanwhile we’ve been packing up posh togs for A’s do tomorrow and then I bathed L and put his PJs on. Tomorrow is going to be an early start cos we want to be off before 8am and we’re going to Yorkshire and back in the day.
