Eve headed off to France, Friday night,  and what with the weather, we were a little worried, but as it turned out, there were only yawning delays.  I think they were supposed to get the ferry at some early hour (07:00ish) but ended up getting is some 11ish hours later.  I would hope the movies stuffed onto her phone and the battery charger thing bought for her turned out to be useful.  Jude was marked not 5o be able to dedicate time to minecrafting on the Friday,  as I was actually using my own computer to help sort Eve, rather than deferring to his usual monopalising – hey ho – he had most of the weekend there, as usual. 

Now Louise’s Nvq is all done she had a stress free(er) weekend, and Esme and I didn’t jaunt off somewhere to be out of the way.  An actual lazy Saturday,  but an industrious Sunday,  as I spent most of the day tidying the girls’ room (in Eve’s absence)  which… took a while.   All done: to the edges indeed.  Hopefully we’ll be able to better keep on top of things, after having heaved it ‘back’ to a semblance of sanity,  but.. that’s a toughy.
