ten on tuesday.

1. Yes, i realise its been a few weeks since i managed a ten on tuesday, they have all been there in my head. When is apple going to invent a mind reader to text machine. Now that would be good.

2. We have come to the end of the incredibly intense ballet rehersal/show time. The ballet company that my girls attend put on a performance of sleeping beauty. In addition to the weekly ballet classes they do the girls attended an extra 20 odd hours of practice and they stuck with it with relative good humour and enthusiasm, given that they are both still quite young I am so incredibly proud of them both.  But secretly we are all silently relieved that it will be two years till the next one. 🙂

 my cute girls. Gawjus 🙂

3. JB1 went to Cadbury world with the school today. He was so excited that he got up three times throughout the night, he was so desperate to make sure he got up in time as they had to be at school early to depart. He came back with a gift for everyone…ahhh..including this for his mum. Thats my boy!

4. Two housework jobs i hate most in the world. Unloading the dishwaser and pairing socks. Another little project perhaps for the bods at Apple..c'mon guys. Have to say though that my wonderful OH will generally take on those jobs. Sometimes the lack of paired socks does reach critical status tho!

5. Music for you this tuesday folks:

 

yeh yeh..good middle aged choice….

6. Theres something about facebook that seems to remove all logical and sensible thinking right? Well in some people it would seem. Sometimes you feel a little 'you know this is a public forum right?" reminder should pop up before you hit that send button. 

7. I read an article on the popularity of 'ear lobe stretching' – not sure i understand why exactly you would want to make your ears bigger? But the title involved used the term 'lobe gauging' which for me is enough of a reason to think 'bad idea'

8. Have you met 'Little Charlie Bear?' We love him and so does JB4 in particular. Narrated by James Corden. Happy to sit and watch this ….

 

9. Almost my favourite lens has given up the ghost. Its the second time its happened and having googled the problem i discovered that its quite a well known issue with the lens which is a shame. Its gone back to Canon and i miss it. 

10. JB2 had decided that she doesnt like lamb because they are sweet and cute and she doesnt want to eat them anymore. When i asked her if she still likes chicken, pointing out that they are animals too, she said 'no, they have beaks and they peck' Sort of selective vegetarian so far then.
