Little Loves

Read I read a few good books here but my pick of the month is Louder than Hunger. I felt the need to talk about it with (bookish) people afterwards, it gave me an insight into disordered eating that I hadn't realised and it was powerful and moving to read while also enjoying the cleverness of the layout.

Watched We haven't watched anything amazing but I'm enjoying The Dry (a dark comedy about a family struggling to recover from tragedy) and Dark Matter (which I'm sure I read the book of years ago but can't find my review...)

Heard Listening to this cheery number a bit 

Wore My new Twoobs. Loving them (husband not so much -ha!) So comfortable, with that feel good boost from being made out of recycled materials...rubbish shoes I call them though these are advertised as ugly shoes or Sneaky Janes...(I have all their shoes - I get compliments almost always in my slides and sandals, but I also have the boots. Thumbs up to them all from me).

And lastly Had parent teacher this week. It was our first in person since the covid lockdowns (as there always seemed to be flurries of outbreaks so they moved to zoom). It was sad to see so few people brought their child along. Precovid almost everyone brought their child along. There is nothing you will hear that isn't in the report, so it's much better that the teachers direct all their comments at the child. It was such a positive expereince, even in the subject that needed improvement. Teachers also offered direction on good practice to get in place for the HSC years, and help thinking about the elusive final units for the HSC but the best bit was watching my kiddo spark up and shine when they (the teacher and child) started talking about her assessment projects or things that happened in class. You see a small insight into your independant child (the grown up coming) that you don't see at home...
