This morning is a jumble of hand cream, latex gloves, tea, macros and laptop therapy. The hands are 100% better than yesterday. The peeling has stopped and the burning sensation has calmed. After breakfast and tea, Froggy and I hopped onto the main computer to go over the macro work I'm doing today. I turned my laptop on out of habit and we went ( Read more... )

Stitches came out this afternoon - always a stressful moment, symbolically closing the overall operation. With Froggy on holiday since Thursday we've been able to simply relax and enjoy some well-needed peace at home ( Read more... )

Delighted to have finished my first mug cosie. It certainly took long enough. That said I undid the darn thing at least three times - not including frogging back a row or two when obvious problems arose.

I'm enjoying a nice big cup of tea (Immy mug of course). So far I've been cleaning up (only light cleaning, promise) here and there but mainly orgaising areas that have gotten out of control. I'm quite pleased with my progress *pats self on back*. Froggy gets home late tonight so we'll have to see whether he notices the changes himself or reads ( Read more... )

Froggy has already called time out on the evening. Luckily he's caught up in the Land of Wiki so I should have just enough time to jot down a few thoughts before he sends us all to bed.
We watched a really fun film this evening: Mrs Hendersen Presents with Dame Judi Dench. Lots of laughs and a few very typical English lines ( Read more... )

On a scale of one to great today was suuremmoista. We took Anna to dim sum and just cruising through Paris was fun. The skies were blue and the sun shined all day long. After gorging ourselves (despite the fact that we specifically said to ourselves before leaving that we would just eat a little) we waddled out to the car and headed back home, ( Read more... )

Well yesterday was relatively uneventful which is a good thing actually. Unfortunately in the evening I was feeling a bit under the weather but with huge doses of hugs and loving from Froggy I soon fell asleep ( Read more... )

I suppose I didn't sleep well because of yesterday's chemical cocktail. That I slept during the majority of my hospital visit probably didn't help. Of course, it could have been the young man who lives in the basement flat under us. He had the uncanny idea that practicing his electric guitar after midnight was a good thing. Needless to say I ( Read more... )
