Day 85: Strawberry Picking

Monday, 15th June 2020
Weather: Hot and sunny, with a little thunderstorm late afternoon

I was kind of hoping we are going to make it to Day 100 to round it off nicely, but seems we're going to miss that by 10 days! Isabella is returning to school on Monday. It would then have been exactly 3 months of no school since the last day of school was 20th March.

She is very excited to be going back. It is our choice whether we want to send her, parents aren't fined at this time for not sending their children to school. It is sounding as though there will be quite a few not in school, but it would be lovely for the children to have small classes. They will have a maximum of 15 children in their class group anyway. Isabella is actually also quite excited that the classroom will be looking different. Hopefully she will really enjoy it, because it's only four weeks then it's summer holiday again.

So yesterday:
Isabella went to a friend for 'school'. They did some school work and played and she had a great time. So did I, working in a quiet home office. Andre was out for work too.



I picked her up in the afternoon and we went strawberry picking at a pick-your-own farm.



Our rhubarb gin has been maturing for three weeks and turned out delicious!



I was just planning to sell this chair as Isabella isn't using it anymore, now our new baby is using it! He also uses various other places for napping so won't be keeping it specially, but he does often lie here. We bought this high chair second hand and got years of good use out of it.
