Therapeutic Times with Persephone and Pals!

Hello everyone! I'm back :awesome:

Today we decided that it might help TLG feel better if she had a tidy desk :ninja:

It was a real team effort as all four of us worked for over an hour to clear all the paper and dust and random coins off her desk but We Did It! :king1:

Esio Trot was a bit slow, so that held us back a bit but we think we did it in a reasonable-enough timeframe :yes:

We've also put on TLG's ABBA playlist, to give her some energy. That was Calliope's suggestion :colonhash:

but it seems to have done the trick!

This weekend, TLG is doing her volunteering, so we need to do some prep work for that too :work:

What's everyone else doing this weekend? :h:

That sounds like a very nice thing to do for TLG Persephone!
Tonight I am having some friends over to have a "Senior BBQ" (our school's tradition we can no longer actually do) and play games and eat yummy food!

That is sad that covid means you can't do your school tradition as normal, but we are so pleased that you get to do something with your friends, nmah! :jumphug:

You've been working very hard and deserve to have some fun :yep:

TLG says cleaning desks is overrated, but we humbly disagree! :yep:

How are you doing, Laura? :hugs:

Hello everyone :hi:

Daddy TLG woke us up very early today :eek:

so we are a bit sleepy :colondollar:

Tomorrow TLG is volunteering, so we've been trying to help her prep. She's interviewing some geography students. I asked her what geography is and she said it's to do with different parts of the Earth. I asked her if that includes Antarctica and she said yes :ahee:

I asked TLG whether one of her questions should be about penguins in Antarctica :awesome:

TLG said that she will ask about global warming affecting that region. I guess that's a good compromise :colondollar:

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend :moon:

Hello Persephone :wavey:

Well done on the desk tidying :smile:

Are you and your pals planning a party for TLG as a surprise? I think it might be fun :smile:

We have gone to see family this weekend but it's very wet and rainy.

Hi Persephone and TLG!

Good luck for your volunteering tomorrow.

Also, well done for cleaning your desk. I’m still trying to get the motivation to clean mine! Perhaps, I will do it next weekend. 😁

Thank you Muttley! We wish TLG could just keep a tidy desk herself - that would make life a lot easier for all of us. We're glad we decided to take action when we did though: otherwise who knows how messy it would have got?!?! :headfire:

Ooooh a Surprise Party! That's a nice idea. Are Surprise Parties Very British? :holmes:

We will see nearer the time what we can organise :ninja:

Yay for seeing family. It has been pretty rainy here as well :sadnod:

Thank you so much, 5! (Can I call you 5? :colondollar:

)

Maybe you ought to invest in a Therapy Penguin who can tidy it for you :wink:

It was very fun! I am quite tired today after baking dinner rolls and chocolate-pumpkin cupcakes all yesterday :jacko:

But we played many games, had lots of laughs, and WAY too much sugar, it was a great time. :party:

Yaaaay, we're so happy you had a great time :woo:

What are dinner rolls? :ninja:

I guess if you were baking loads of them, they must be very yummy :biggrin:

Is there such a thing as too much sugar? :dontknow:

Dinner rolls are like little loaves of bread, but a little sweet! And it was too much sugar, I crashed after and had to sleep for a long time :u:
