Our Fridays are always full and fun; and occasionally frantic. We take a break from our bookwork on Fridays to spend the day in other ways. Here was our Friday this week:
8.45am go and pick up a friend for Scrapbooking / Craft morning at our house
9 – 12 noon Open house for homeschoolers to come to Scrapbooking /Craft. Mums work on projects and the kids play together. We’ve been doing this for a few weeks now and have had 3-4 families most times. I’ve managed to get several scrapbooking pages done and the kids have played well together so it’s been good.
12 noon – pack up, drop friend home, go to lunch at Andrew’s parents’ house.
12.30pm Lunch This time is always great as the kids see their grandparents every week and spend time with them. I also get to go out shopping by myself in the afternoon so it’s a real blessing to me.
2pm Stephen has an optometrist appointment so he comes along this afternoon
2.30pm Shopping for fruit and vegetables at the market, going to Fyshwick shops for other birthday presents.
4-4.30pm Get back and have a quick cuppa with Mum before taking the kids home and unpacking the shopping
5.15pm Start making a Spinach, Leek and Feta fritatta that I have never made before
6pm It finally is in the oven!!!
I then sit down and catch up on emails etc for a while
6.45pm Dinner is ready and we sit down together to eat!
7.30pm I head out the door again for a birthday coffee and cake supper.
Usually, I’m out the door again between 7 and 7.30pm on a Friday night as I take one boy out with me. I have a coffee and they get a baby cino and we just have a short one on one time together. It’s late night shopping night for us so we browse around a little too. Each of the top three boys takes turns in coming out each Friday night.
10pm Got home, collapsed on the lounge and watched some of BBC’s North and South
So, the day was flat out and full but I do like my Fridays and look forward to them.
What are your Fridays like?
