    Hallo!

    Much better today. Think we all needed a good boo. Although I got a call from nursery, when I was driving, but when I called back it was engaged for ages. So me in a tizz drove there straight away to find DD has been bitten again, and its a bad one. Same child :( The bruise from the last hasn't even gone yet. They are getting someone in to shadow him as its getting out of hand - seems his mum is beside herself (and gets bitten too by all accounts). Anyway, she's ok and I've put arnica on her (DD, not the boys mum). So it's been a bit hectic what with work too and hence not much flying.

    DS had a good swim lesson and now has some goggles with funny dragon eyes on :eek:

    Honey I'm completely off the meds and have been for 4-5 wks so will keep an eye on that.
    Pegpin. I mean pigpen :D I lurve your pegs, pretty washing line! And thanks for the invite, we should organise something! X

    I did get some more muck for the raised bed (thanks for the tip dusty), and I've cleared my papers out of my junk drawer and sorted into their correct homes, with some to go to work for confidential waste :T

    Catch you tomorrow, hopefully a less eventful day.
