The last week has been a little different for us as Gabe went back to school on Monday. The first day he went back with no problems or complaining and had a lovely time. We had a bit more moaning on the other days but on the whole it’s been great for him being back.

Wow, week 26! I can’t believe we’re half way through the year. 2020 will definitely go down in all our memories as one of the weirdest ones we’ve ever had. We might be half way through the year but it really doesn’t feel like it after spending the last three months almost entirely in our house!

I’m back again, albeit a little late this week. This is mostly because I hadn’t taken any pictures of Toby and Gabe at all last week so I had to wait until I had some to use. Lock down restrictions might be easing around the country but everything is still continuing the same as it has been around here for the last 12 or 13 weeks (or however long it’s been now!)

Here we are again. Another Monday, another Living Arrows post. And like most weeks I have nothing new to tell you this week really. The weather has been a bit rubbish all week so we haven’t even really been out of the house.

Last week we were back to our lock down normal with a bit of home learning, and probably too much TV and PlayStation. I’ve given up worrying about screen time now though to be honest – I’m just going with whatever keeps everybody happy!

Finally, I have something different to write about this week! Last week we took a half term holiday from school work, and Barry had a few days off work too. It was my birthday on Thursday which we celebrated with afternoon tea at home, and on Friday we all left the house together for the first time in over 10 weeks.

I really am running out of things to say in these weekly posts – every day just seems like the last and nothing ever seems to change. I can’t believe we have barely left the house for 10 weeks now!

I’m a bit late with this week’s Living Arrows post because I hadn’t managed to take any pictures of the boys at all last week. There’s not really much to take pictures of at the moment is there?

Here we are again. Things are much the same here – our new home learning plan that we brought in last week is still working reasonably well so we’re sticking with it for now. We all enjoyed a relaxed three day weekend this weekend though with the bank holiday so I think we’ll be keeping that every week too!

Here I am again with another Living Arrows posts. I haven’t had the motivation to blog about anything lately (although I have got a Millionaire’s Shortbread recipe post in the pipeline!) so I’m glad I have these posts to keep me writing, and so we have a record of these unusual times.
