I know it has been forever since I visited here last. Everything and nothing has been happening around here lately. But I'm here know and armed with some updates. Firstly my rescue mission on some discarded chairs is complete:I'm pretty proud of them. They fit into every room in our house so we are never short a chair when needed. Also this year my marvelous started kindy. She loves going, even though some mornings it feels like we'll never get out the door in time. I am using tricks like premaking lunches and filling the freezer with them. It has been so hot here his year that they are definitely defrosted by the time she eats them. Also a ban on telly and computer games on school mornings mean there is a few less distractions. She has been bringing SO MANY of her creations home. At least 1 large painting every school day. My fridge door was overflowing so I have come up with something I like to call the "table of Honour". Our dinner table has a clear plastic protector mat on it. The plastic itself is getting pretty beat up due to the fact that I seem to think that means I can go to town with all my arts and crafts on it as the table won't get wrecked. So I have started sliding all of her and the cheeky boys artwork under it so we can admire it at dinner times etc. I think it looks really cool and we can fit a lot under plus be able to open the fridge door. What do you think?
