A pleasant day

although it started badly with a stinking headache. Accordingly I didn’t go to M’hell – I’m going later in the week to talk about mortgages, so I’ll roll it all up together then. Instead, I lay around for a bit feeling sorry for myself, and dragged myself downstairs just in time to open the door to Kirsty 🙂

Good to catch up, and pleasant to watch the children playing in all sorts of permutations. Two girls, two boys, two older, two younger, all four together. Lots of screaming and wailing of course, but mostly pretty good. Plenty of cups of tea consumed, and much chatting too.

Later on, Big cooked her own tea again, she’s getting pretty good at this. This was after she’d made her own and M’s lunch (they turned down the pizza I’d prepared). She did her own pasta last night as well I think. We also talked a little about basic first aid – now that she’s starting to deal with hot pans and boiling water it made sense to talk about what she should do if anything went wrong (not that she’s doing it on her own, there’s always someone with her, but it’s still a good topic to discuss just in case).

And that’s pretty much another day gone. I was doing emergency cover, and I did get one call, but it wasn’t anything I could actually do anything about, so a rather low key emergency. Instead I read and thoroughly enjoyed Twelve Impossible Things Before Breakfast and watched a Criminal minds. Now I’ll be out of whack for the rest of the week trying to work out which day it is, but it’s worth it for another lie in 😀
