Hello, I'm back! Got back on NYE really but have been busy with my new jigsaw puzzle.
DD and I had a great time in the UK, not doing much at all, just eating and slobbing about. Went to the beach a couple of times and to the local playground twice but other than that we just stayed in and I am now quite fat from eating copious amounts of stollen and shortbread biscuits.
DD had lots of fun and too many presents, I was having cold sweats worrying about them all fitting in my suitcase. DD's speaking a lot more English too, all coming along nicely now. She's even started sleeping in later in the mornings but had to get up earlier for nursery this morning so that won't last mi sa.
I'm quite glad DP didn't come now, am still mad about the principle of it but I was glad to not have to translate constantly and being able to watch any old rubbish on the telly without worrying about him being bored. I must say, though, the television has gone downhill a bit, despite the zillions of channels on my dsis's Skyplus we were still hard pushed to find something decent to watch. It's put me right off getting Sky here now.
Franca, I'm glad you're settling in well, we must meet up again soon.
