Hello and welcome to Word of the Week!
If you’re new here, Word of the Week is a nice and simple weekly linky, with everyone welcome to pop by and share. You reflect back on the past week and sum it up in one word. Then share your word with us in a blog post, with as little or as much explanation as you like. It’s a fun and friendly linky, so please do be lovely and visit as many of the other blogs as you can and share with them your thoughts on their words and weeks. I do comment on every entry to the linky, and if you add the Word of the Week badge to your post to help spread the ‘word’, I also tweet them out.
My word of the week this week is:
It’s been a good one, though I have to admit I’m a little grumpy about how quickly it’s all gone by.
We have been very sociable this week, very sociable. The kids and I have squeezed in meeting up with 4 lots of friends, as well as catching up with pretty much every member of our family in between. We’ve been out to the fabulous Disney on Ice and I’ve even managed to get a day of studying in, too, whilst the kids were being way more sociable than me playing with my mum all day.
It’s been great having both of the kids at home and without having to time my day around school runs. It’s also been fun spending the week catching up with people and letting the kids do their own thing, be it playing, reading, watching movies, whatever they fancy. It’ll feel strange when Boo goes back to school on Monday, but likely only for an hour or so as the old routine seems to come back so quickly, like we were never away!
What about you? What one word sums up your week best?
Please grab the badge, link up and share.
Linky opens at 6.30am Friday, to midnight on Sunday.
Sounds like a lovely week full of fun 🙂 xx
It has been! x
Wow what a busy week – sounds like you’ve had a lovely time catching up with friends and family and seeing Disney on Ice and I’m impressed you managed to get a day of studying done too. Hope you have a lovely weekend and enjoy those last couple of days before getting back into the term-time routine.
It’s absolutely flown by, all fun, though 🙂
Lovely week for you all, it’s a shame that holidays just whizz by, isn’t it.
Have a fab weekend and hope the return to school goes well 🙂
I know, they fly by! Thank you 🙂
Sounds like you’ve had a lovely, sociable week. I saw Emma’s pics of you all at Disney on Ice – how fab!
It’s been good and yes Disney on Ice was brilliant!
That does sounds like a very sociable and busy week! It’s tiring isn’t it? Hopefully they’ll be back in the grind of things next week 🙂 x
Very! Tiring but worth it! x
I like your word of the week. Unfortunately we’ve not been feeling very sociable this week and even turned down visitors the other day because I was too tired to cope 🙁 Our week hasn’t been bad though, despite the dreaded homework, which is my word of the week.
Oh no, sorry to hear that x
Hi Jocelyn, it sounds as if you’ve had a crazy week. I’d be totally exhausted if I’d have met up with so many people, but I bet you and the children had a fab time. It must have been a total pleasure to be able to sit and study in peace, knowing that the children were having a great time with your Mum.
Hope next week isn’t too much of a shock to the system.
Thanks for hosting.
Loved it! I do like studying knowing they’re having a great time and being thoroughly spoiled 🙂
Sounds fantastic! Madam, my MIL and I are going to see Disney on Ice tomorrow 😀
Have a brilliant time!

Aww sounds like you are really meeting a lot of friends and relatives! I agree with not having to follow any school run sched is nice. Its just so amazing to have that power to go anywhere whatever time for a bit =)
Yes, absolutely – the freedom is wonderful!
It’s great to be able to have quiet periods setting time aside for just ‘me time’ and then having lots of sociable times. Sounds like you fit a lot in and enjoyed it all.
We did and it was good! Thanks
