In the next week two of my children are leaving home and I’m going back to school. It’s a lot.

After all the months of nerves and anticipation of exam results, it’s dawning on me that having done well, my boy is leaving in about two weeks, some of which he’s spending with his friends.

I am awake and have been for some time. Child (not really a child, an adult, but you know) is asleep. #ALevelResults

Last night we were in Nuremberg. It was all Albrecht Dürer this and Albrecht Dürer that. There was not a single mention of its most famous inhabitant, Sandra Bullock.

Arrived in Bratislava thinking I knew nothing of the language, only to discover that lots of words are the same or very similar to Ukrainian. Now I can ask to buy fat and say the doctor is there.

Back from three days at PGL. Many: miles walked, children encouraged to do things that scared them, bedtime stories read to people who missed mummy, sleeping bags stuffed back into bags, taking people to the loo, vomit dealt with x4.

I’ve had a large gin mixed with home made elderflower champagne and am watching Wimbledon. A parent bought us each a box of heroes, which is very much appreciated. Happy to be home.

Added a tiny bit of MSG to the sautéed cabbage tonight. Transformational.

Nearly finished booking our complicated (my fault) holiday, line dried sheets on bed, yoga done, collected daughter from uni. #Sunday

I’ve broken the back of reports but I’m in danger of falling out of the diamond league in Duolingo. Swings and roundabouts.

Got myself a new library card (I’d not been for so long they removed me from the system) and discovered THREE Ruth Galloway books I haven’t read. Happy half term.

First A level tomorrow. Child pretty monosyllabic about it (to be fair that’s normal) and doesn’t want a fuss. So I’m fussing on here instead.
