Day 67.

I and most of the kids have been knocked down with a severe cold this past week. Today was the first day I woke up and felt like my head wasn't full of cotton wool and fog, yay!

Taffy's work is still going well, it helps that it only takes an hour or so and that she will happily colour in for another hour, or play outside if it's not bucketing down with rain.

Gretel is astonishing me with her letter learning, considering I'm not teaching her!

Karys is trying hard to get out of doing anything, admittedly she is feeling quite unwell.

Colt is doing better with his maths, yay!

Dart is suffering because his very mean mummy decided that we would not have screen time during the week any more!

Both boys are suffering greatly, their lives are at an end and they are BOREDDDDDD!

Poor darlings!

Obviously, they needed this intervention so they can find their imaginations again!

It's going to be quite painful here for a little while, but I'm tough, I can do the hard yards with them. :)

Today we planted some bulbs that looked a bit old, so we'll give them until the end of the month and if there's no progress, we'll buy new ones and start again.





We also planted potatoes and re-potted a blackberry bush.

Then we made cards after lunch, for our friends and family.


We came close to deciding to move out to the country these past few weeks. It has made us make some decisions about where our lives are headed and what our goals are.
I'm glad we have thought about it and now we will take the next year or two to learn about farm animals and growing fruits and vegies, and learn how to run a business.
