I'll back up a little.
Sunday afternoon K and I headed out with Beebs and Lor Lor (and Laurel with the VERY pink hair!) to a handmade charity event in Dundee. I ended up with a migraine, the blinding, agonising type. Yuck.
Unfortunately it lasted until Thursday!
On Monday I went to buy the wellies I have been drooling over for weeks and weeks. When I finally had the good fortune to find a hole in my old wellies, I wasted no time in zipping off for the red spotty ones!!! But they did not have my size! I am still crushed. I tried again today and there are still none.

On Wednesday my girl broke her heart going in to School. It was totally unexpected and I was blindsided. Completely.
I had to leave her crying .
I shattered into a million pieces.
I left crying and cried all the way home. It was 9am! How was I going to make it to 3pm without knowing how she was? I finally pulled myself together and got on with my morning.
I was sitting playing cars with the new little boy I care for. He is 18 months old and adorable. He somehow lost his footing and caught his mouth on the table. Hard. After some ice and more tears (all mine! the little honey was still smiling!) I was really a bag of nerves. I had a whole day of worrying about two kids to do now!
Lor Lor came to my aid and kept me
K was perfect when I picked her up, she had settled quickly and came home smiling! I put the kettle on for a cup of tea and put a chicken in the oven to roast.
My nerves were settling and I was ready to relax into the evening, the day could only get better right?
Fraser walked through the door with a black and misshapen finger. He had hurt it playing rugby at school. First period.
The School dealt with it in a VERY unacceptable manner and I knew nothing of it until he came home at almost 4pm.
I rushed him straight to the local Hospital but we were already too late for the x-ray dept. We had to go back in the morning.
I was fried! I was so so ready for the day to be over and for Thursday to come.
Thursday morning came and another hospital appointment! Fraser has fractured his finger and needs to return to the fracture clinic next week. Cue a long letter of complaint to the school for the way they handled the situation!
Mama bear is not happy!
On the plus side K went in to School absolutely fine.
On the down side - K got sick on Thursday night and had to miss school on Friday.
What a week! It was certainly not one I was sad to see the back of!
I obviously had to take Friday off of work, I am so lucky to work with the great families I do. They all were very understanding.
K and I had a snuggly day. We lay on the couch and watched Disney films, we looked through cookbooks and made baking plans. We relaxed and re-charged. It was just what we needed.
Today was a busier day, K had a hospital appointment for an eye test (on a saturday??) and I had some fabric errands to run.
I will never do this on a Saturday again!
People in car parks are rude.
That's all I'm going to say about that.
I think this post is long and depressing enough.
Tomorrow we are going to get back to what we usually enjoy as a family. I have some sewing to do and we are going to head out for a long walk somewhere, blow away the cobwebs of this horrible week. I will take my new camera and play a little. I can't wait, it's a good thing that it's almost bedtime. x
