Reset

Drop off this morning, S unexpectedly very upset when we got to the door and didn’t want to go in. A bit of encouragement from her favourite teacher and she was fine. I have always found the weeks before her birthday to be difficult as she seems to take big developmental leaps around that time. I stopped at a friend’s to drop something off and was invited in for a cup of tea, lovely to catch up and see her. I went home and was still feeling quite drained from yesterday so decided I needed to do a reset, which for me is a day of baking and listening to podcasts. I made bread and a raisin and frangipane Swedish sourdough bread type of thing. I also made a dahl for lunch which was very tasty. This evening we all went for a walk after dinner to see if we could spot the owl.
