Home Schooling Day 1

Hi all, So last Thursday my kids' schools all shut down (as did all schools in the Republic of Ireland) to avoid spread of the Corona Virus. I was delighted. Firstly, the government made the right call, quickly. Secondly, I was going to have time at home to work on projects that I've wanted to … Continue reading Home Schooling Day 1

Nearly The End of April

So two days left in April, and I can say for one I do not know where this month has gone. I didn't manage to get any of the things that I wanted to get done done. I didn't restart my healthy habits.

Pumpkin Picking!

Pumpkin Patches are a relatively new idea in Ireland (as far as I know anyway!). We had planned to go to one last year but couldn't for some reason, so this year I was adamant we were going to go. The one we chose to go to was one that we didn't need tickets for, … Continue reading Pumpkin Picking!

Happy Mothers Day (belated!)

He had to get a few operations, and he couldn't work, so that was the end of the business. His leg never really … Continue reading Things are changing in this home!
