Yes. Its me. Thought Id share with you all a day in my life as mother, wife and person sometimes if Im lucky.
I got up yesterday, showered, tidied the lounge. Ive never been one to clear the wine glasses coffee cups from the night before, always in the morning. Got Danny sorted for school then drove him there. Only takes 2 minutes.
Popped in to see hubby at work. He works at The Chateaux in our village.
Went to Chatillon which is the main town. Visited the bank, the pharmacy and then the supermarket.
Came home unloaded the shopping and prepared lunch.
Ive decided to cook our main meal and eat it at lunch time. The french do this. I actually think ts a good idea.
My Son and Hubby came home to a feast of Spagetti Bolognase (A family favourite) and fresh melon for dessert. It was well received.
As us girls know we are the masters of multi tasking. While doing the above I also managed to fill and empty the washing machine twice, the weather was lovely, couldn't miss a drying opportunity.
Dropped Danny back to school for 2pm. On my return I then split some logs.
My neighbour has a machine which splits the logs by using a great amount of pressure. Did three wheel barrow runs. Was actually sweating like a geezer!!. For those of you who don't know what that is, it is sweat dropping from your nose and from your forehead into your eyes. Nice !!!!! Not!!!!
Had an hour online catching up with emails, facebook etc. Might have spilled over the hour slightly!!!
Picked Danny up from school at 5pm. Came home, then assisted Danny with his homework. He protests everytime. I find that quite stressful. Weve approached the homework situation in lots of different ways and find that doing it as soon as he gets home is the best way.
Not having to prepare a meal also took alot of pressure off. We all had ham sandwiches and melon and ate it when we wanted. This allowed Danny to go out and play for an hour, Gregg walk his dogs and for me to water the garden, sort out washing and cut the lawn.
Danny was shattered and was in bed asleep by 8.30pm which then gave me the rest of the evening to watch the Soaps and The Children, a drama running at the moment!!
Monday nights is soap night. My husbands least favourite evening. He does leave me in peace and respect my viewing. He has just recently acquired Setanta Sports so he does do okay. Im outnumbered in this house as my son is football mad. My husband is sports mad!!! Im just going mad!!!! Ha ha!!
I would be interested in finding out what other people do in there average day if you can spare the time to explain.
Hope you enjoyed your day as much as i enjoyed mine x x
Parsley
Basil
Mint
