This day I love.......: cupboard

This week has been such a roller-coaster of emotions. I have felt low for most of the week and just wanted to stay away from either online or real life people. I can only apologies for my absence. Normal service will resume.

Sunday

I spent the day at a bloggers event in Leeds. #introjuicing was hosted by Currys and was a great day out. We got to try some amazing juices, and do some Yoga. I had never seen so much fruit. I won an Instagram competition with this photo and won a juicer. I have spent most of the week juicing things

Monday

Spent the day catching up with work and generally keeping myself busy. The start of February is never easy and I just had to do things to take my mind of the week ahead. Spotty dog is back to normal and up to creating mischief as normal.

Tuesday

Today would have been my sisters 30th Birthday.

Wednesday

I had to go to b and q to pick up a few pieces. After 3 years of living with the hallway carpet we have finally saved up enough to get it replaced. It needed replacing when we moved in and it feels so much better now it is finally done. My youngest got a little bored in b and q and took to hiding in the kitchen cupboard displays.

Thursday

We received a new breakfast cereal to try and I have to say I really like it. Will be publishing a review soon

Friday

The winter sun was so beautiful you would be forgiven in thinking it was Summer day. My youngest had so much fun exploring the woods near us. Kicking leaves and stomping in mud, it was a great afternoon.

Saturday

An early Saturday morning start. I ran my third park run today. Not sure why but today it felt hard. I got heart burn half way round and had to walk for a bit which I don't normally do. I did manage a PB so I must have been running fast.

Is it really week 40 already? Can't quite believe it.

Sunday

I took my eldest to see Andy and Mikes Tick Tock time Machine. The show has just started its Autumn / Winter tour and are also supporting the Lullaby trust. The show was absolutely fantastic and if there is a date near you I would really recommend going. My daughter and I really enjoyed ourselves.

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday

I set off late on Sunday evening to do the 4 hour drive to head office. I spent the evening in a hotel which would become my home for the next few days. Starting at 8-8.30 am every morning and then coming back to the hotel for 6 pm before spending the rest of the evening studying. I had a three day training course, followed by some very difficult exams which had high pass marks. Compulsory for the job too. Not to worry I passed them and am now getting ready for the next lot.

I have decided not to put a photo in as the picture would either be of a service station [boring], the inside of a hotel room [very boring], or some blank pieces of paper [incredibly boring], as the materials I had for training along with the inside of head office is all confidential, sorry about that.

Hope this also explains my absence of late.

Thursday

After a rather long day at work, this time closer to home, I managed to make it in time to pick the girls up from nursery. They were very pleased to see me after my three/four days away. I loved watching them play together. Those days away I really missed them.

Friday

I think spending time away from the girls has made them want to be near to me more so than before. I don't really mind I like the cuddles. It was rather cute in the morning when I woke up and both girls had climbed into bed with me.

Saturday

My eldest had a small accident, thankfully she is OK, and so we spent our afternoon in a and e. As you can see she wasn't all that bothered by her trip to the hospital and kept herself rather busy whilst we waited.

My eldest has a love for emptying and hiding in cupboards as she did here, my youngest seems to now be following in her sisters footsteps.

I have never seen anyone empty a kitchen cupboard as fast as my youngest did today. She emptied it so fast it was almost as if she was looking for something, I think perhaps Narnia.

Once she had emptied it she had to have a real good check inside the cupboard to make sure there was nothing else in it.

She then proceeded to climb right inside the cupboard

What these images fail to show is that after this she got very angry that she could go no further and that there was nothing more in the cupboard for her. She would climb out then climb back in again, as if double checking.

This day I love more cupboard fun

After another exhausting night the girls and I are a little tired today. Not normally ones for afternoon, or for that matter any time naps, I was not hopefully that I would be able to catch up on any sleep during the day. A slight miracle occured though and we had an hour nap.

It may not seem like a lot but when your total evening sleep is 2 hours an hour is just what is needed to refresh and recharge. We had a lovely nap all together

Due to a wonderful catch up on some sleep, I managed to get a dinner cooked. The girls entertained themselves by opening my kitchen cupboards. They can only open certain ones due to child locks on some, but I think its good to let them explore others, although my eldest took the exploring to a new meaning

My youngest loves the fact she can use her baby walker to walk over and open the doors. She was not expecting to find her sister hiding behind this door though and it did take her a bit by surprise. It was lovely watching them play together.

This day I love afternoon naps and cupboards.
