Family day..

.. funny isn't it how when something happens in your family and you don't adopt the same old routines, it makes you realise how work and that same routine are irrelevant when you come down to it and in the same way are good and bad for you!.. good to keep you feeling sane, but bad that they feel normal and make you quite disorientated when you step out of them..

I'll explain.. Col and I spent the morning with Jordan who had some pretty extensive orthodontic work done under General Anaesthetic today..it was worse than she had expected, but six hours later she's much better.. though the living through your child being 'done to' is really quite emotional and definitely draining... I have only just got over the odd week last week..and here at 5pm I could crawl happily into my bed again.

And now Cols gone off with Zac to his college parent's evening.. a first for him, but hey, he's an expert in 'A' levels and UCAS points etc now.. after his tour of all England last week!  I usually do the Penwith College thing as I (also) went there.. and how cool that the new buildings are named after local coves.. and Penberth is one of them.. how sad and nostalgic am I!!  It's good though for Colin to go for once and I get to take JB on a tour soon anyways.

I have the babe for the evening, as M&D are moving house and need to get ahead, she's such a joy, more words every day.. even an old hand like me is amazed, but maybe that's a grandparent thing!

Oh and Ross and co arrived home safe from the road trip to France.. like everyone else he's got to settle back down now and start some serious work and studies..well it had to come to him sometime!

  2. Mmmm, sure thing..but I'm hoping Jordan may just grab Zac's shirt tails, though I suppose not, but at least we'll be experts by then!

  3. Hope Jordon is feeling ok and no its not nice being "done to" but in the long run it will be worth it give her a hug from me.

    Hope you will take a rest soon Kathi I think you need it
    Hugs

I am hoping that 'Anonymous' has stopped stalking me with his Spam now, but may have to put verification back on if it comes back.. I just can't buy any more over the counter drugs or Louis V handbags girls!! ;-)
