forest walk

On Saturday, Rick and I and 7yos went for a walk in the forest in the afternoon.  13yos was playing tennis with a friend and 12yod was at a friend's house for the afternoon and evening.  It was a walk I haven't done before and I really enjoyed it.  7yos took a ball and a toy car and enjoyed playing with them as we went around.
I have a stinking head cold so had a lie in on both Saturday and Sunday.  I didn't go out to any of the meetings on Sunday but do feel quite a lot better today.  18yos came home on Sunday evening so he is busy making tea for us now - spinach risotto - I am really looking forward to it.
Today we got work done this morning. 7yos is really coming on well with his reading.  12yod spent some time finalizing her composition for the music festival. Then all three of them were at orchestra later on in the afternoon.  We also made an appointment with the high school of our choice to see the depute rector of higher school about 13yos starting there for S4 this coming autumn.  We spent some time looking at his possible subject choices and where he was likely to end up.  He definitely is veering towards sciences so has to think about that.  We have an appointment on Wednesday so will see how that goes.  This school is about 26 miles away so not as easy to get to as the one up to road but for various reasons it is definitely the right one for him to go to.
Things are looking good on the job front for me.  As well as having an interview on Thursday 14th for a one day a week job, and pracitce nurse cover, I have an exam coming up with a view to an interview for community nursing which I would really like.  Things are coming together nicely.
Plan on a 6/7 mile forest run tomorrow with some good hard hills in and then a 4 miler on Wednesday with 13yos.  Then hopefully a couple of other short runs later in the week.
