It's been a busy week which means that I didn't get time to jot down my learnings like I usually do. Or maybe it was a slow week and I just didn't learn anything? Regardless, I jotted down five and anything else I learned has flown out of my scatterbrain head already. So, enjoy my five for the week that was and I'll try to do better next week!
1. I missed a real opportunity when my babies were tiny. If only they had been better sleepers! Check out what
Adele gets up to when Mila is sleeping...
2. How to print on twill tape. Now, I know you're thinking 'why would I need to print on, ah, what's twill tape?' but I'm enamoured by the idea of printing out little message to sew into clothing and things. Pop over to
Weekend Vintage to see for yourself.
3. I* can make this fab chicken coop and run courtesy of
Costa.
4. Kids don't actually melt when they get wet in the rain. They love it, in fact. And since in this modern age we know that you don't actually catch a cold by being wet and cold, I just went with it and let the Tsunamis and their friends** get wet and mad as we came home from school on Wednesday.
5. You really do say it best when you say nothing at all (thanks Ronan). During a conference call that I didn't agree with on Thursday, I went into silent mode and said absolutely nothing. After the call I had 3 people phone me back to agree with me. Ah, hello, I didn't say anything!!
Did you learn anything new this week? Scroll, scroll, scroll and click to share your fabulous knowledge!
* Okay, so LOML can make it... or we could potentially pay someone to make it... or we could just think about making it...** If Sasha or Ben's mums are reading this, Sasha and Ben stayed well and truly under the umbrellas watching the Tsunamis get wet and mad. Promise.It's FlogYoBlog Friyaaaaay hosted by Lori over at
Random Ramblings of a SAHM, thanks Lori...
EDIT: On 1/11 I changed the image that accompanied this post. I had permission from Adele to use her Mila's Daydream image when I posted, but I noticed that she is trying to recall her images so I've taken mine down to respect that. Hope you enjoy the new image if you're late to this post!
