NaBloPoMo 20 21 London baby


Thurs 20

Woke up really early to get kids ready, Tom taking them to breakfast club. Made my 808am train to London for big team autumn campaign evaluation meeting, then a leaving do for a long-standing colleague. Absolutely love seeing all the lights. My phone camera couldn't do these ones justice but they were so simple and pretty. Had do in Seven Dial Market, heaving at lunch time, but a great place to sit in the afternoon. Home about 6pm, to get car from station to drive to dance via a detour to Tesco to get a meal deal. Dance in the old gym as main hall in use by the school. Freezing cold, but ended up having some great dances. 

Today. 

Up really early for morning walk and tumeric chai with Alex in the frosty dawn. Home up get kids up, made it out without too much trouble. Home to work at home all day on the freezing cold, wearing all the layers and my blanket poncho. Curled up in the sunny conservatory with my lunch to thaw out. Working on social media monitoring, autumn evaluation, recruitment, web training and mentoring today. Then stopped to do Phoebe's hair post bath, dinner of duck breasts and dauphinoise, by candlelight at that seems to chill the kids out a little. Helped Lydia film her extremely elaborate Egyptian project homework then got Phoebe to bed and Lydia showered whilst Tom out tracking down Phoebe's lost water bottle at Trago Lounge. Phoebe asleep now, listening to Tom read Matilda to Lydia in the next room.
