Today was a really miserable day as far as the weather went. When I left the house this morning it started sleeting quite heavily, then it turned to rain which lasted all day – and it was just cold cold cold all day!

Finlay woke up really early this morning, at around 5am. He then proceeded to say every word that he knows, from Scrambled Egg on Toast, to counting to ten, talking about the dob dobs, monsters – he just chatted away merrily. Usually on a Wednesday the early mornings catch up to him and he has a really long sleep in the day. Not today though. He wasn’t a happy chappy for it either. He had a sleep in the car on the way home but with only 15 minutes of the journey left I knew I’d have to wake him up as soon as we got home – and then came all the tears. It’s understandable though, he wasn’t having tantrums or anything like that, he was just really upset as he was so tired and I’d woken him up. It took about 15 minutes to calm him down – and showing him the present that I’d bought for him. A Jenson Button McLaren cap! He didn’t seem all that keen, but I’m putting that down to him being tired. He loved the Jenson Button Brawn GP cap I bought him last season so I’m sure he’ll like this one. He’s got a thing for hats and caps at the moment so it arrived at a good time!

Tonight I’m finishing off the tidying in the office so that I can start working in here again. I’ve just got a few boxes that I need to sort through and then put them up in the attic for storage. I haven’t worked in here for ages because of the cold weather – it’s the coldest room in the house, but it will get milder now so I’m hoping to get in here a couple of nights a week to carry on my studies and build more and more extravagent websites.

The boxes are calling so I better crack on. Might write again a little later when I’m tucked up in bed and am playing on the iPhone!!
