Reading... A Life on Gorge River by Robert Long. I actually bought this for my dad for Christmas, but made the mistake of reading the first page and now can't put it down!
Watching... Jo Frost Extreme Parental Guidance. It's probably not right, but you have to admit, seeing kids that make your own seem like little angels is in some smug way quite satisfying! I'm always either in total agreement with her ideas for the family or talking to the TV, telling them what I think they ought to do! Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution. Love his passion & enthusiasm for teaching kids to make good food choices by getting his menus into schools.
Loving... Summer! Long warm days, blue sky, open doors and windows with a breeze gently drifting through the house, walks on the beach, swimming in the sea..everything just seems so much calmer, happier and, well, just better now it's summer! I'ts almost enough to make me question why we are leaving summer soon to head to 2 months of winter...almost, but not quite!
Craving... Strawberries, fruit smoothies, fresh fruit salad ...excuse me I have to go..!
Learning... NCEA History Science Maths and Chemistry facts as my son revises for exams. It's scary how much I have forgotten/never learnt!
New things in Photoshop thanks to this book by Scott Kelby that I have dug out again.
Planning... Our trip to UK in 11 days! I had forgotten how much organising/planning/sorting there is to do getting ready for 2 months away from home, and 2 months of other people living in my house! Deciding how far to go on what to leave at friends houses (the computers for a start!) what to pack away in boxes and what to leave out for the family that will be calling our house home. Planning time with special friends and family in UK, Christmas gifts to take with us, places to go, things to do, people to see, how to turn my suitcase into a tardis...
If you’d like to do this on your own blog please leave the link in the comments I'd love to see! :)
