Gloomy old Eeyore!
Groan! It's so grey and heavy and close outside that I feel like my skull is being crushed *looks sad* - just wish it would get on and rain lots to clear the air!
God did I feel ill this morning after the revolting Macdonalds last night! I woke up feeling utterly bloated and sick and headachey, didn't want breakfast but forced a little down anyway (thinking it might help some) and then tackled some housework to take my mind off it. While I was doing that, Rosie read some history books and April got out the Cuisenaire rods (see below!) She built stairs for 1-10 and worked out all by herself that if she put a 1 rod and a 2 rod together they were the same as a 3 rod. Then she did a 1 rod and a 3 rod and got a 4 rod, and so on - clever girl! *smiles*
As the morning wore on I felt so bad that in the end I even phoned Tim at work with a sort of "tell me you're not going to be too late home today?!" plea. Then, I cooked lunch for the kids but I only had some Shredded Wheat.
After lunch, Rosie and April built a shop in the hallway which was a little inconvenient as it involved me clambering over it every time I needed to go in the bathroom! They were having a lot of fun though so I let them get on with it :) Tim got home (thankfully not too late!), at which point I dozed on the sofa (still feeling icky and a bit sad).
Anyway, now the kids have gone to bed and Tim and I have been making leek and potato soup for dinner - something nice and simple to say "sorry" to my poor, battered digestive system! :) After dinner I intend to get an early night but I expect Tim will stay up to all hours - he won't be doing anything on his website though (which he sometimes does) - it seems to have gone AWOL! Heehee!
