Be Prepared...

I spent the day preparing.

Dear son heads off for his first full pack camp tomorrow, and apparently the sun is due to return for the weekend, fingers crossed pleased; not worried about him, but rain = mud = lots more washing for mummy!


I then spent the afternoon preparing a Super Tote.  Sooooooooooooooooooo much cutting and interfacing and all that horrible mularky.  I did not enjoy that bit.  But it will be worth it, hopefully a good night's sleep will clear my head for the fun piecing bit!


So not random.  Sorry, but here's a link that will make you chuckle, especially if you are of a teacher-persuasion, the parent of teens, or just glad your school days are over.  Make sure you make it to no.33, that's my favourite!

Oh, and I uploaded the contents of son's Nintendo 3DS SD card onto my MacBook for him today, he is nothing if not random...


Linking with Cindy's Really Random Thursday.

  1. Your son seems random, but awesome. :-)

    Also, that list made me laugh until I cried. If I could get away with wearing a storm-trooper helmet in a school photo….

  2. Hee hee, that link gave me a giggle! Now the question is, will the son actually fit in the tent with all that crap (plus his teddy bear)?

    (Just empty everything into the washing machine when your son gets back, even if the weather is nice his stuff wil be filthy)

  5. off to follow the link next (with high expectations as i tick all boxes! my tip for the next camping trip - start keeping worn out/too small stuff, or take a quick trip to charity shop - and send him (or them) with stuff that can be thrown away rather than washed
