Along with her many other unique accomplishments, T is the only person I’ve ever met whose birthday is the 29th February. So Happy Birthday there, chicken!

Office Hours

Hilarious day, especially the fella with the eyes that wouldn’t stay on his coffee… isn’t it funny how guys have what seems to be a completely involuntary response to women in their vicinity? Like their better nature should prevent them but their evolutionary imperatives force them to seek out booty and case it. Outstanding. Now, I [...]

Happy Days

Gorgoeus weekend. Only made more gorgeous by the fact that I got loads of gardening done, the Mouse helped, we all ate ourselves silly and we each got some relaxation in! Simple ingredients in a classic combination.
I’m not drinking at the moment; not because I have run out of drink, but because I just feel [...]

Duvet Day

I’m in bed, reading, listening to Radio 4 and podcasts, and teaching myself a much-needed lessonette in learning to notice when I’m ill enough to stay home, and then acting on it.

Hi Speed, Lo Drag

Husband is away tonight and periodically between now and the end of March. Think it’s my sinuses. That are wrong with me, not that’s making him go away! Oh, [...]

Just scabby now!

We’re all through the worst, and at the end of a really difficult week, with smiles and hugs all round. Mouse is feeling less itchy and more his toothy, cheeky self; I’m totally wiped out and fighting off an ear infection but just so grateful that we got through in one piece. The doctor has [...]

Chickenpox

R has it. His spots are bursting and itching, covering him in pus and bloody streaks. He’s still my little love, so patient, so uncomplaining; he says it itches, but that’s it. My heart is breaking.

New Blogroll Hero

So you will see to the right Ten out of Ten, a wry, sarcastic and hilarious blog from an actual ER doc in the States… more funny than him are the patients he treats - some of them are useless.
Interspersed with the humour are stories that make me wince and I think that’s the best [...]
