This morning I had to do a school run not something that features much in my life anymore as my eldest is at secondary school and the youngest is home educated. It is such a lot of energy to get two children to school, on time with everything they need that I have decided children should only go to school once they can get there themselves! That is if they go at all.
The rest of the day was much quieter. We decided we could not be bothered to go swimming so instead he watched lots of Horrible Histories and played his newest PS1 and DS games and I finished a book and played scrabble online! After that fruitful morning we played Railway Rivals. The first game was on the American board and the second was on the French board. Surprisingly I won both because he usuallly wins the American board. Just at the moment though it is my lucky game.
Then the second school run of the day. I am helping a friend out but when her husband returns from conferenceland tonight I won't have to do any more school runs (barring illness) until this time next year. That suits me just fine.
