It hasn’t stopped raining all day! Nice, soft, slow rain. Love it.

I can’t shake this nervous feeling that I have. Not sure why but I think it is because I finalised all the trip details and payments today. Have this sinking feeling that I got something wrong and we’ll be stranded in some airport for 2 weeks. It all all happened so fast and yet so smoothly…..I won’t jinx it by going any further with this train of thought!

TV repair man has been back for the 3rd time and this time the problem is still not fixed and it is actually worse then when he took it away on Friday. I’m getting slightly cross at having to lift my heavy TV in and out of his van every week or so. Technology is well and truly advancing but the problems associated with it are not good. I’ve had my little TV since I moved out of home in 1995 and it is still going strong with never a problem. Pretty soon I won’t be able to watch it at all without a set-top box. Ahh the good old days – when everything worked and lasted forever!

My least favourite words this week are “Mum I need to do a wee!”, and that is because it now happens every five minutes and whenever we are passing a toilet while we are out. I can remember the thrill of seeing a new bathroom/toilet as a kid, so I understand her desire, but it is getting tiring!! At least she is doing really well and even having a sleep in the day without her nappy. Go Amy, you rock!

Time to do the school run.
