Slides

Posted in Tabitha at 9:25 pm by roseoak

Tabitha has discovered slides today. We have put her on them in the past but not really let her go for it. It’s hard to do that when you can’t be 100% certain that she won’t fall over the side. Today I decided for the first time to let her go for it. It was the cutest thing I have seen in a long time. Tabitha sat at the top of the slide looking down, then she closed her eyes and shuffled herself forwards until she slipped down to the bottom, still with her eyes closed and giggling all the way. She was very eager to do it again and again, so we spent quite a lot of time on this past time today. Every time was the same. She loves sliding with her eyes closed I suppose. She certainly looks cute doing it.

Bargains

I went to the car boot sale yesterday. I used to go every week, but recently I’ve not had the money or the time and so I’ve not been for some time. Today though I managed to get a couple of bargains. Firstly, Chris and I drink a lot of sparkling water which costs 25p/bottle and causes us to creat a lot of pastic waste. Someone today wanted £1 for a working sodastream with 6 bottles. Lovely. Also, I have been thinking for some time I’d like to have a go at making my own pasta, but I wasn’t able to justify spending £25 on a pasta machine. I picked one up which has not been used for £3 (they wanted £5, but I beat them down!). Now I just need to get the motivation to make some!
