Normal days of a Wednesday

Today's adventure was a most normal adventure indeed! Screens, books, toys, and imagination. We went to the doctor, played house (cleaned, cooked, groomed), learned at school, and had many a games such as: hide-and-seek and cross ways (in which we time bearhugs). We also had a singing contest and dance party. Sausages for dinner and starting our new routine up again, the dreaded (but really fun) bubble bath!  

Nerd of the Rings

Today while Luna made a mess of the living room (again) and frequently curled up with her blankets to watch the big screen, I found myself deep diving into LOTR territory after listening to some LOTR/Hobbit music.  I also found myself trying to create "popcorn" crochet stiches with the yarn luna used to practice her cutting skills. I figured I could somehow attach it to the side of a blanket in which the sides were too short to properly secure.  The channel I found that has the lore and myth and theories of Tolkien's work is aptly named Nerd of the Rings . Have I posted about this channel before? He has full playlists dedicated to each era (first, second and third) and most of the main pivotal characters.

  Yay me! As it was the first of the month I did our monthly bedding change (also our weeks of laundry), dishes, trash, and puck g messes from a Luna Belle. It was happily fairly quiet. We also did the normal screens, play, and books. The main adventure was Luna decided this day was a good day to practice her workbook and her cutting (lots and lots of my yarn and paper). As I agreed with myself that the workbooks were for her to do, the...trials of her doing the work(ie, me only doing the show and tell or hand over hand) came and went throughout the day and this adventure. To end this day, my husband brought home Popeyes and we had more cake. Yum!
