I don't think the people who live in the house are elderly, but I don't know them.

Turtle home from school and seems all went well. Just 10 children in a 200 pupil school today, but catering and teaching as normal. Lots of outdoor classroom stuff. Tomorrow they're doing forest school all morning then PE in the afternoon. I think they're expecting about 15 kids in.
Big tin of biscuits sent in this morning as a huge thank you to the amazing school staff!

DS14 is now off completely with home school but he is pretty independent and studies online with his friends (who are cleverer than he is so that's good!); DS11 is to go in two days a week and home-school. We're buggered because we are also working ft (from home or otherwise) and the Icelandic grammar is probably beyond me in any case :/ Their music lessons are also online so we need to supervise those (help them with the tech).

Phew, I now have 2.5 full-time jobs...

But still easier than being a hospital worker.

I had planned to go for a run but got stuck into gardening and decided it was both physically and mentally the best thing I could be doing. The sunshine was so warm, I saw so many butterflies and bees :-) and one tiny bit of the garden now looks so much better than it did before :-)

And tomorrow, my strengthening class in going to happen over Zoom :-) I've got my yoga mat out already :-)

About This Thread

Maintained by Serendippily
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2020 thread, everybody welcome. The thread motto is:
'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

At normal times: All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles. Extra points for bins :-) And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.
