\nThis one’s for all those who think that blogging is just self indulgent blather. It’s just a quick post to see whether my feedburner<\/a> feed (now on my sidebar as “subscribe”) is picked up properly by bloglines<\/a> .<\/p>\n

10 THINGS I DID TODAY
\n<\/span>It’s the type of day that I have about once a month, but people think Stay At Home Mums have all day every day.<\/span>
\n<\/span>1. Scanned my teddy<\/span>.
\nWork colleague reminded me in an email to bring in my teddy for Library’s Midwinter Lunch, which has a Play School<\/a> theme. She used many bear smilies in her post. I scanned Coco just to show her what a real teddy looks like. My Co-Pilot has warned me that posting it here risks creating a “Scan your Ted” meme.
\n2. Watched Play School with my 3 year old<\/span><\/span>
\nA rare treat, as usually we are a “One hour of TV between 5 and 6pm household”.
\n3.Folded 5 baskets of laundry<\/span>
\nOnly half a week’s worth.
\n4.Sewed up the 8 year old’s school jumper<\/span>
\n5. Went to dance class at the gym<\/span>
\nThursday nights, 6:30 pm. Body jam<\/a> class.
\n6.Watched “Vera Drake<\/a>” on DVD while the 3 year old napped<\/span>
\nHow else would I get through 5 baskets of laundry without climbing walls?
\n7.Cleaned up a couple of day’s dishes from the kitchen, then cooked dahl, rice, poppadums, corn<\/span>
\n8.Was hot water bottle for Nougat, the furless Cornish Rex cat<\/a> all day<\/span>
\nYes, I did 2., 3, 4., and 6, 9. and 10. all with the cat stuffed up my jumper.
\n<\/span>9. Listened to 8 year old’s reading, timed his timed reading passage, helped him stay on track while he did his homework<\/span>
\n10.Made an appointment with a Real Estate Agent to appraise my dad’s house<\/p>\n
