Good day today. Rick cycled to Stranraer for an appointment and 6yos and 11yod went to a sewing workshop and came home with a ninja headband and belt and lovely headband for a friend respectively. Then 11yod decided to spin some wool we had found on holiday in a field and she really got into the mood by dressing up. In the end she carded it and washed it and will be using it for felting.
Meanwhile 6yos took advantage of the fact that the canoes were still out and played at shark hunting on them, having a whale of a time.
Music lessons this afternoon and 13yos spent ages tidying his room and getting some things ready for when he goes to camp at the end of the week. I received one of my study books for the Return to Practice course which means it is all getting more real now. Just trying to get the uni and my local Health Authority to have more contact with each other so it actually works out that I do my clinical practice here, which will make life so much easier.
Had a great 4 mile run this afternoon with a friend down by the river. It was fascinating to see how all the vegetation had been flattened in the recent flooding, which doesn't usually happen in June. Really felt invigorated after the run and pleased to have pushed a little more. The strange thing about running is how you enjoy it so much more once you have finished!
One of the chickens is broody and we wondered where she was. Looked in one of the storage sheds where we keep the straw and found her comfortably sitting on a nest she had made. Under her were 10 eggs! Moved her off and back into the chicken shed and swiftly moved the eggs. Hope she gets over it soon as she is affecting the laying of the other chickens and that means less eggs! Although I have some sympathy with her being broody, life is tough and she needs to get over it!
