TWO DAYS TO GO!
So, this may be quite a dull post today. As I am sure I may have mentioned before, Fridays tend to be the same thing in this Daft Household. Walk to Monkey Music, bus home from Monkey Music, have lunch, talk with Nana and Papa(p), dinner, bed. With plenty of stories thrown in for good measure.
Step one, brekkie. In Christmas jammies. Because reasons.
Today wasn’t much different but it was lovely. The weather looked bright and breezy but lord it was also nippy in the shade! Luckily I had my insulated backpack, Wee Daftie, strapped into place so it wasn’t the worst. (Except for when it was)
When I took this photo at Fettes College, there was a drake in the water. When I looked later, it was not there. Still a pretty pic though!
We were quite early for class so we has some time in the garden at the venue. It is a lovely little space filled with grass, flowers, apple trees and benches.
Wee Daftie had me in stitches while we waited for class. I was sitting on a bench, packing up caboo, and she was running around in circles. She would do a lap, come back to me and say, “Okay. I need to go for work now. Okay. Bye!” And run away again along her little circuit. Rinse and repeat. So funny.
My favourite part was when she would edge slowly away, waiting for me to wish her a good day before she would run at full pelt. Such a funny kid.
Hug that bollard!
We made a small stop in the supermarket to buy the milk I never bought yesterday before we walked the rest of the way home. It’s about a 20 minute walk for me. It took us a lot longer. A. Lot. But it was fun. We played Stop and Go, we had a little hunt for bunnies, we counted the aeroplanes that flew overhead and tried out a new game I like to call Zigzag.
She was walking a bit slow, I was getting hungry (not gonna lie) and she was kind of just jumping across the walkway so I encouraged what she was doing, I just added a big diagonal run to move us forward. And it worked!
This is the walkway. We zigzagged our hearts out!
Home in time for lunch (yay!) with all our steps done (yay!) We enjoyed a nice chilled out afternoon before Auntie Numbnuts came over for dinner (yay!)
Two days to go! Huzzah! Super chuffed with how well we’ve done. Just another 20,000 steps to go. Yay!
