NaBloPoMo 9: London again

Awful early start with Phoebe and I screaming at each other over hair and me trying to rush out the door to catch my London train. Every morning I feel like I've done a full day at work before I've actually sat at my desk. Had a cry waiting for my mercifully delayed train and then again when I realised I didn't have a spoon to eat my breakfast. 

Knitted all the way into London to try and calm down. Nipped into Boots at Waterloo to buy some mascara and slap some tester blusher on to make me feel more human. The liminal space of the tunnels between lines I find very soothing, with the whoosh of warm air and the slap of feet on floor and very little talking.

. Did not envy the three classes worth on a school trip on the Tube, the many teachers and helpers coralling the tiniest, stopping them from eating their snacks and leaving their coats behind.

As it happened they were off to the same museum as me. Spent the day with other Comms leads from visitors attractions hearing about the industry and case studies, very helpful and excellent food.

Home on the slow train. Back into chaos, though had a steak dinner waiting for me. Children wanted to get ready for bed with me whilst I changed for dance, so suffered through that and read Phoebe a quick story.

Dance not as great tonight, quiet and I wasnt feeling it

 As it happened, the online shopping order didn't arrive, so I went off to the 24hr Asda to buy pizzas for tomorrow and breakfast items and randomly emergency school shoes for friends tearing their hair out having lost their kid's shoes. Right place at the right time and all that. Left them on their door handle on the way home.
