It is the middle of May and yesterday the temperature was only a chilly 9 degrees. We have had a couple or warm days but mostly it has been cold and wet. Again, I have put off planting anything in the garden so again I don’t have much going on there. I’ve planted some pea shoot, lettuce and radish but that’s about it.
Jake has lost another tooth, which happened last month. He ‘new boys’ are growing well and look huge. Jake has made a new friend Leandro, which make his ‘circle’ consist of James T, Ciaran and Leandro but of course things could change!
Mia has been doing rather well with her dry pullups of a morning. We may attempt going without soon. Scary! Her favourite thing at the moment is Peppa Pig. It is the only TV she has ever watched and loves it. She has watched her one and only DVD a multitude of times but thankfully Lovefilm have 60 episodes available online. Jake’s and Mia’s favourite episode is Polly Parrot. “I’m a noisy parrot! Oink!”. I guess you had to be there…
Amy has finished her course placement(only yesterday) and is stressing understandably about looking for work. She has enjoyed her time there and feels a little bereft. Fingers-crossed something will come up.
My Xtracycle odyssey it almost complete. It began in August 2010, so nearly three years in the making. I have just ordered a pair of nice Surly 1×1 forks, two Bontrager tyres and some inner tubes. I still need a seat post and clamp but can steal those from my Ridgeback. I must say that with the Freeradical attached I am shocked my the sheer length of the thing. It will be interesting to see how it handles.
