MAS poor you to have the pain. Well done on getting through it all though. What's next, now they've ruled out a clot?
Sweetest, that eye op sounds amazing. Was it under local?? If so, huge hats off to you for bravery. And if under general, well you should be horizontal in the garden with a good book. 
Gig, a break from therapist sounds like a plan. Could you maybe do something else with the time? Not sure what, but maybe something physical and life affirming. I went swimming rather than to young womens cancer meeting the other night and felt I got far more out of it!
Ned, DS is fine about potential dyslexia. I haven't talked to him about it much, just explained what it is and that he might have it. His teacher is dyslexic, a cousin and one of his most favourite grown ups too, so he has a few brilliant role models already. Am sure that will help a lot if he is. Assessment's next week. [eek!] Is your DS enjoying the holidays?
Kurri, I used to get one from Waitrose - think that as the Weleda one. Was alright, though i have switched back to normal ones now.
Figgy happy holidays. Bet it's a lovely feeling to have the weeks stretching in front of you.
Amber, why are you so exhausted?? Hope it's for good reasons not too much work. >
Topsy how's the teen? Has he emerged from x-box land at all yet?
Bollocks, if you're out there let us know how you are.
DS and I managed to get into the swimming pool. Twice now we've been turned away as it was full, so we set off early! Then went to a cafe for a treat of a breakfast. I had granola, with amazing yoghurt and berries , he had pain au chocolat. Very nice way to start the day.
Waving to all. So sunny still here.
