The night shift did not go too well last night. It started off well. I took the twins through and I enjoyed reading to them. Elbereth settled in her basket but Malach would not settle off. It was not too late but I was feeling really tired so I just decided to put Malach in bed with me for tonight. Most nights they are settling in their baskets so I was not too bothered about one night. Elbereth also woke during the night but one off night is not bad.
Wolfie slept well though so at least I managed to get one out of three. I got up and made breakfast for Devil boys daughter, Wolfie and I. Wolfie made a right mess this morning but the cat was feeling obviously hungry and ate a lot of the porridge off the floor.
I started work on the shed again and I start3ed sorting through some of the bags and chucking out some of the things. I always find this part the most challenging of it. I usually find things and think ‘Oh I really like this’ or ‘I will keep this as it does not take up much room’ I was good today and I managed to get rid of a lot of things. I think that now I have started the decluttering I will really manage to get rid of the clutter that I have wanted to get rid of for years.
I came back in after a while and while Devil boy took Wolfie I changed and fed the twins. There is quite a difference in their characters already. Elbereth is quiet and serious looking. She does not look at you for long and is much more interested in looking at around about. She is also much more of a sucky baby than Malach. She sucks her hand quite a lot. Malach though is more vocal than Elbereth and is much more interested in looking at you rather than around the room. He smiles so much and makes lots of really cute noises. It feels like you can have a conversation with him. You say something to him and he smiles and coos back at you. It is lovely.
After they had both been fed and entertained I started work on the kitchen. I decided that I was going to sort it out. I managed to spend most of the afternoon on the kitchen. I cleared the table of stuff and organise the side where I had my recycle corner. I have fond a new home for the recycle corner and sort out the recyclables to take out tomorrow.
I also organised the cutlery draw, which was a right mess. It looks so funky now. The kitchen is really beginning to look good now and it is looking bigger and more efficient. I am really proud of what I have managed to get done.
I had to take a break at one point as my back was really aching and I was getting stomach cramps. Thankfully they did not last too long and I spent most of the night relaxing on the sofa while feeding the twins and watching a funky programme on UKTV history about the British Isles.
The twins have now both settled off to sleep so I am going to relax for another half an hour before getting ready for bed. We will see what tonight begins.
