Hope you get some sleep - I also have a self-imposed ban on mince pies until Dec 1, maybe we need a unilateral agreement that it’s fine! Xx

Ha! I’m glad I’m not alone. I can’t decide about giving in early…I feel like it might be the thin end of the wedge (the wedge of Stilton, no doubt). On the other hand I’m eating chocolate like there’s no tomorrow so why not throw in a few mini mince pies as well?! Xx

At the risk of overusing "resonated" - that first paragraph resonated with me :). So relatable and well-said.

Hope you have better nights of rest this weekend!

I appreciate the acknowledgment that homeschooling while sleep deprived can be a form of foggy torture! We do love a good poetry tea, but sometimes I have been taken off guard by the poem contents, ha! You might get a chuckle out of this story: https://anneliseroberts.substack.com/p/humor-and-poetry

On my goodness I LOVE that post! It is so very real and you somehow find the humour in a day that I myself would not always find humorous. As you say, caffeine helps!

Also, I truly love the messy photos. We should all share more messy photos. It is a great kindness to others.
