Last week...
- The headline: we started potty training the Little One. It is not going well.
- I baked for a bake-sale I helped to run. I semi-burnt half the biscuits. I ate the most burnt ones myself. Even half-cremated, they were quite a perk of the job.
- I started my tax return. Then realised I needed log in details. Oops.
- I did no sewing. I meant to. I wanted to. But there was housework and kids and errands...
- But I did quite a bit of cooking. Including our first proper dinner for friends in the no-longer-new house.
- I made a cheesecake that collapsed in the middle. My third ever cheesecake, and all have done this. But it is better fresh from the fridge a few days later. Perhaps I didn't chill it enough first? Or was the bake to short or chilly? I must get an oven thermometer.
- I finally put the sealant round the bath.
- I wiped too many snotty noses too many times.
- And I dreamt of a sewing studio, or nook, all of my very own.
- My Molly Makes magazine has arrived. I love it. And by Jove I'm going to find time to read it!
- We will get the Little One to stop weeing in his pants even if it drives us nutty!
- My parents are coming. Hoorah.
- I will sew something. There must be time somewhere for sewing.
- I will finish the wedding photo frame that's been in progress for at least two years (and we've been married over four!). I know, I know. But I'm going with the mantra that postponing is better than cancellation.
- I will re-start my Eat the Week feature on the blog. Well it only featured once before, but I plead extenuating circumstances!
- I will start thinking about Valentines. Yes, it's a month away. But I live in an odd space-time-warp in which months fold themselves up and seem to last only days. Spooky.
- I will get out of the house, even if it means resorting to pull-ups for the Little One. I'm sure the Big One potty trained in only a couple of days. Am I rose-tinting history?
- I will try to stop obsessing about potty training. And writing about it here. Do you really want to know about toilet things on a domesticity blog? I thought not.
