Were the holidays all you expected them to be - whether good or bad?

Ours have been fine. We've been a bit busy this last couple of weeks with boring stuff and so had set aside today and yesterday to do something nice, but DD has had a temperature and no appetite, so we had a sofa day yesterday, and probably will do today too. The weather is perfect for once- not oppressively hot but not bucketing down either, but never mind. We're reading a great book - The Silver Sword - a childhood favourite of my own. She doesn't always enjoy my childhood favourites (I don't either when I revisit them) but we're both loving this one, so we're having mammoth story sessions instead of day trips.

I've been doing lots of school work ready for Monday (no kids until Wednesday though).

There were a couple of people we had wanted to catch up with over Summer but didn't manage to. It's always the way. We might squeeze in a couple of science experiments/engineering projects that we had planned back in July.

Did you get everything done that you had planned to do?
