Good afternoon.

It's my usual Monday off and I've been pottering and doing jobs as usual ... as well as trying to stop 17yr old DS interrupting 14yr old DD! She has a full school timetable of lessons to complete each day and as his A levels have been cancelled, he is wandering around being a pain! I've suggested a few jobs he could do ( put his clothes away, rather than on the floordrobe as an example ) and DH suggested several jobs in the garden ... but no! I do understand that a week ago, it was full steam ahead and now it's all stopped and he can't even go out and see his mates, but it's going to be painful as he gets through it!

I could never have homeschooled!

I've had one of my mums already message to say 'HOW do you manage to do this everyday?' I sent her back a hug and said relax, don't need to do anything, just enjoy the time. Which, as I've experienced above, is easier said than done. But at least little people can be occupied playing!

Stay safe everyone xxx
