Day 40 - Green

A pretty uneventful day today and nothing really to report. Had another pants nights sleep but I got up okay.  It did actually rain and was a very grey day but I didn't mind.  It was nice hearing the rain hit the windows and it was great for the garden.  I loved how green it looked and with us not being in it much we could see plenty of wildlife. 😊

The school day went better with the sheets printed off and I actually learned quite a bit about working out the missing angles in a triangle.   Also loved getting the paints out and making a picture.  Haven't done that with them since they were little.  We used to do that sort of thing all the time but they just don't have any interest in any of it anymore. 😞

I can totally recommend running in the rain!  The cycle path was empty 🙌. I didn't have to zig in and out of people or worry about what side I was on etc and the drizzle helped to keep me cool.  I did a little over 5k but I didn't even look to see what my pace was, I was just away in my head jogging along.

For dinner tonight I wanted to cook the boys some herby turkey burgers from scratch but I didn't realise until making it that you have to chill it for 2 hours/overnight before you cook them, so I got them ready and stuck it in the fridge.  It was pretty simple to do, just time consuming getting it prepared.  I'm not a very patient cook, I'm more of a chuck it in the oven and stick the timer on type of cook. 😂  But at least I'm trying.  You can find the recipe here and I'll show you how they turn out tomorrow.

After feeding everyone, again, clearing up again, doing the dishwasher again, I realised I was feeling a bit drained.  Don't worry I'm not depressed or ill, I just think I'm very tired from so many nights of bad sleep and a bit dehydrated.  I think I'm achy from too much exercise!   So after putting Oscar to bed I asked Rob to sort the other two out so I could go to bed early and chill.  So here I am at half 8 in bed already! It's bliss. 😑

Going to watch a Killing Eve episode and catch some zzzzz 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Today I learnt about finding missing angles in different triangles and how to spell recipe. 😂 I am loving the fact that I don't have much washing anymore and I am grateful for the rain making my garden nice and green. 💚
