Exercises completed. Miniest wanted to go to the beach but I think tomorrow is a better day weather wise for that. Also, and I hate to say it, but I've got a lot of cleaning and laundry to do! Also organising stuff.. there are piles of clothing in different spots around the house and the Miniest is heavily into art and craft activities and she's a prolific artist so I have to discretely "manage" some it. When they first start drawing painting and creating things you have a tendency to want to keep everything, but after a few years and hell of a lot of art you tend to want to cull it a bit more heavily!

Sometimes I come across artwork that another kid has gifted to my kid. I have been housing random children's artwork. Makes it pretty easy to get rid of. Some of my daughter's work I scrapbooked.

I've got a designated "art wall" in my house, so if it's good enough to go on the wall it does. If not it gets put in a pile for a bit and then discretely binned. My favourite thing is the unfinished notebooks and sketch books. I have to admit, I love new notebooks myself.

Hahaha. Yes who doesn't love a fresh notebook/exercise book. I had to go through them because there was always private information in there like full name, dob, address etc.
