Stayed home with the senior son again today, and actually spent the time wisely. We read a lot of books, did some vacuuming and generally chilled out together until R came to do the afternoon shift. I picked up the vital necessaries to do the afternoon class, having got an order form and rung school to find out where to go, and had the order rung through for me by the technician. The class went really well, but I am urgently seeking another lesson to do with them next term... biotechnology anyone?? Tonight at home we ate well - C helped cook - and then played family games till the boys went to bed. Its like the perfect day for the kids, and everyone gave me five minutes of putting stuff away before they went to bed, and now the whole house is picked up too.
Two days of school to go, and I have a sore throat. But I don't think I can ring up and have another day off...
