What has made me happy.
Week seventeen
This week has been tough. Being back at uni is hard work and my timetable means that I get home at 7pm two nights a week and 8.15pm one night. This means that I miss seeing my children go to bed and I am really missing seeing them more during the day. I have to remind myself that it is just for the next nine weeks and then I have some time off again. Settling into the new routine has been tougher than I imagined but it seems to be slotting into place now.
So here we go, this is what has made me happy this week:

This week has been tough. Being back at uni is hard work and my timetable means that I get home at 7pm two nights a week and 8.15pm one night.

Settling into the new routine has been tougher than I imagined but it seems to be slotting into place now.
So here we go, this is what has made me happy this week:
- Watching the children get messy at toddler group! My son loves getting paint everywhere and it is nothing a good bath won't fix. I think children should be given the opportunity to do some messy play. The worst that can happen is that you all have to wash when you get home.
- Autumn leaves floating on the canal. The colours were stunning and we stopped to look closely at them on the way home from toddler group.
- The peaceful walk to the train along the canal towpath early in the morning on my way to Blog camp in Manchester.
- Blog camp was great fun, really informative and it was fantastic to catch up with friends.
- Getting ID'd. This has happened twice in one week which has made me feel particularly youthful!
- Going for walks with my little girl. She now prefers to walk than sit in the pram so we are now entering a new phase of toddlerhood.
- My mum coming to stay. She has been here for the past few nights and it is lovely to see her. It's also really nice to have tea cooked for me!
- Starting a new blog. Obviously it is really bad timing to start a new blog but that hasn't stopped me. Please pop by and say hello, it is a site which aims to give advice and thoughts on life, money and politics. You can find it here.
