Me on Monday

Today is the day we wave to Sian at From High in the Sky. Showing ourselves at the beginning of the week and looking back at our weekends.

This is how you’d find me right now: editing photos for future blog posts and breathing a deep sigh of relief. My girl had a telephone interview at 5pm, for a place at her top choice of Art College. She hates the phone and would much rather have had a face to face experience, where she hoped her portfolio would speak for itself. All was well and, after 15 minutes of questions, they offered her a place. The acceptance letter should be in the post this week. I’m relieved and excited for her.

It was a rugby watching, home team cheering, steak and chips cooking, vegetable roasting, soup making, banana mashing, muffin baking kind of Saturday.

A roast lunch (that I didn’t have to cook) eating….the best kind, Christmas present delivering….the poppy (complete with a little mud and rust) finally arrived and my Mum is delighted with it, homework writing, artist researching, Our Guy in India watching….the traffic sounds took me right back….distraction finding sort of Sunday.

How was your weekend?

    Congratulations to your daughter:) We loved Our Guy in India, he's proper, isn't he? I'm reading his autobiography at the moment.
