Day 117

It was a good day today, I know that much. I just have to think back to how it started.

...Obviously I woke up, like every other day. I also got ready, and came downstairs to get the boys breakfast. Tim left early, so I took care of all 3 courses. And of course, none of the boys were finishing their course at the same time, so I was up and down all morning while my cereal got soggy. We got homework done, and then Heloise and I hurried through the pathways to school. - It took the boys ages to get ready, and they had to be told about 5 times, to get their mitts and toques on.

We dropped them off, and then walked back home. I quickly wrote a letter, got some things together, and walked up to the post office. From there I walked to the hair dressers. They did my eyebrows, and washed my hair, and I enjoyed the beautiful walk home. I didn't have long to sit around when I got back, as Heloise and I had to go get Zach. When we arrived however, Zach had decided he was going to a friends house. The two of us got into the car, and drove to Chelmsford. Heloise had an essay to hand in at University, and we sat in the cafe and had lunch together. When we finished there, we went up to admin to see if they had a document she wanted to pick up, and when we couldn't get that, we headed to the grocery store.

After buying a number of movies, and a cadbury cream egg...then showing my ID for Heloise's wine (as she didn't have hers, and couldn't believe she had been ID'd), we got into the car, and drove to Xavier's. Heloise had a cup of tea while we chatted to Michelle, and then her, Zach and I had to rush out to pick the other 2 up. We stood in the playground waiting for them to come out, and Zoe came over and gave me a huge hug. We then had a mini snowball fight. Nathaniel and Josh came out with their friends, and I became the target. It was fun, but I didn't want to get them in trouble. - They're not allowed to have snowball fights at school -

One of Heloise's friends, the mom of the brothers that look like Josh and Nathaniel, decided to have us all back to her house. We walked there, and while the older boys played on the computer or something upstairs...the young ones played the Wii. Zach and one of the boys sisters decided to bead necklaces and such with Heloise. I was watching the boys play Wii when Zach came over and asked me to join them. I went in and sat beside the little girl, and I made a necklace for Zoe. I can't wait to give it to her! The boys ate dinner, and eventually we came home.

I vacuumed, while Heloise made dinner. The boys got ready for bed, and then came down to watch Aladdin with me. Zach decided to help me vacuum before I put the movie on though. What a cutie. Josh wrote out a birthday list for me - as I have no idea what to get him...and Nathaniel drew me a really nice picture of my goalie jersey, and on the other side of the paper, he had written me a really nice note that said thank you for taking care of me, I'm having a lovely time. WHAT A SWEETHEART!!!

We sat on the couch to watch the movie. Josh wasn't really interested, so he went on the computer. Zach gave me cuddles, and Nathaniel was up and down. Tim built a fire. After a bit, I was getting cuddles from both Nathaniel, and Zach. It was really nice, and helped to keep me warm. Halfway through the movie, and after I ate dinner, the boys had to go up to bed. I switched the TV on, and watched Friends. Soon after, Heloise's friends came over for her Birthday drink, and we sat around talking and eating Horderves. When they left, Heloise put "The Proposal" on. Her, Tim and I are watching it, and it's almost over now. Which is good...because I'm EXHAUSTED! Which is why I'm writing my blog before crawling in to bed. I expect I'll fall asleep instantly tonight. BUT I get to sleep in tomorrow!! That's the first time in like 3 weeks!!!!!!!! It's going to be amazing!!!!

Gonna go for now. Good Night xx
