Congratulations to Pigpen, OH and her family on the safe arrival of Dot. She is a lovely little dot xI must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.0 -

Morning.
Minion's bus didn't turn up. Nor did the one due 15 minutes later. So we were standing at the bus stop for about half an hour. So she and a LOT of kids are going to be rather late for school. And then she has to leave again later this morning to get back here in time for her physio appointment. I am not convinced she is going to make it, as she is relying on a letter from me in her planner to get her through the security doors.
I have downed a coffee, but still feel ready to go back to sleep; it's not an option today. But at least I should be able to do some flapping about in the bedroom and get that looking nicer again before she gets back.I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll0 -
DW been unloaded/reloaded, our bed stripped and bedroom hoovered. I think it's gonna be a slow day. BIL ended up back in hospital yesterday, he's got an infection in his leg. He'll hopefully get out today or tomorrow.
Right i'll go load the wm and get rhys dressed. Then get my bits done in town, hopefully it won't be too busy.Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.And things go wrong no matter what I do.Now and then it seems that life is just too much.But you've got the love I need to see me through.:j :j0 -
