Put away some shopping, took DD to Doc - she has a nasty infection and a very nearly burst eardrum so she is on drops and medicine and has to be really careful not to burst it [its balloon shaped!!] Never rains but pours here

PS Toots - Mum was coping up until this morning and has had a minor meltdown - I think she is intending to have a couple of hours off visiting on Sunday and will go in later in the day - she can't sleep and isn't eating properly but no amount of telling her is going to change her- will just have to be there when she does collapse from all the strain!Projects made for craft fair - 40
