I don’t know why but each weekend that that is planned for the home life project, something goes wrong. This month was no different in that respect but the reason was slightly different. It definitely wasn’t a good weekend for the project to fall on though. In fact I almost didn’t join in.

You see on Friday we discovered that the lovely new house we were buying and planning to move in to in April  was no longer ours. The brand new house that we had lovingly chosen new tiles, kitchen, carpers and flooring for was now going to belong to someone else. Somebody who was chain free and who doesn’t have really slow buyers. To say I was gutted was an understatement.

I didn’t take any photos on Saturday. It was a day at home, offering the perfect opportunity but I was miserable. Husband was miserable. The girls even picked up on it and were miserable too…bickering amongst themselves all day! No Saturday was not a good day.

Sunday we had decided to do something a bit different to cheer us all up so we headed to Chessington World of Adventures. Being out of season the Zoo and Sealife Centre were open but the theme park was closed. To be honest that was perfect for our girls. It provided a break from the talk of houses, what could have been, should have been, what to do next and all that stuff.

When we got home though, Husband was freezing and couldn’t warm up so went to bed for an hour before driving back ready for work. Thankfully the girls were happy just playing whilst I surfed the net for a new home.

An okay day but far from perfect:

I did try to join in with the challenge and took a few reflection photos…but they weren’t the best. This one really isn’t great but makes me smile. It was taken in the sealife centre. In the dark without a flash (no flashes allowed) but you can see both Poppy and Daisy’s reflections in the fish tank. They were amazed by the sucker on it’s tummy::

Hope yours was better and our month improves too.
