My rules from day one of our lockdown/quarantine that started January 23rd 2020. I forgot to post it. So much has happened since.
Making worksheets for Maths on Monday on Saturday night is the most relaxed I’ve been all day. The kids haven’t had great days and it’s been so full on.
Elise likes these books, Daisy has an active imagination!
Loving the Tiktok Sea Shanty remixes. The electro (?) version in particular, it’s gone on my Omar playlist for 2021.
Walked a new way home because Baidu Maps said we could. Took us down a random muddy path but it was a new perspective on the area we live in. Despite being so built up there’s still space around.
Having someone to go with makes it harder to not go and more fun when I do.
Having someone working a different level has been good too, in that it forces me to consider what I’m doing more. As I creep towards 40, I’m making choices about working out so I can work out again this week and next month and for the foreseeable future.

No idea what to make of the first 2 episodes of Wandavision honestly, but I know we’ll keep watching.
“I’ll follow you into the dark” cover by Frank Watkinson. I’ve been listening to the original recently but liked this one. Also, his house is so British and it makes me miss the place a bit.
Daddy’s Breakfast Diner is open. I’ll cook whatever you want as long as I have the ingredients. Midnight Diner on Netflix
The kids enjoyed the lychee and orange Oreos that have been released for Chinese New Year but I wasn’t a fan, just a strange taste.
“She’s a grown-up, isn’t she? Grown-ups and monsters aren’t scared of things?”
“Oh, monsters are scared,” said Lettie. “That’s why they’re monsters. And as for grown-ups…” She stopped talking, rubbed her freckled nose with a finger. Then, “I’m going to tell you something important. Grown-ups don’t look like grown-ups on the inside either. Outside they’re big and thoughtless and they always know what they’re doing. Inside, they look just like they always have. Like they did when they were your age. The truth is, there aren’t any grown-ups. Not on, in the whole wide word.”

I thought about adults. I wondered if that was true: if they were all really children wrapped in adult bodies, like children’s books hidden in the middle of dull, long adult book, the kind with no pictures or conversations.
Not sure why this passage struck me but it did and has me thinking about grown-ups and how we grow up and we’re the same but different.
