Moon rising to signal the end of a crazy day

Took nice photos of the moon yesterday, but wanted to blip the bridge. Tonight I waited, ready, camera in hand for the moon to appear only to be met with "change battery pack". I used C's camera and just pointed & shot because I don't know how the rest of the settings work.

Noticed a bite yesterday morning on the back of my ankle. As it was not sore or ithcy, just minding its own business I forgot about it until the afternoon when I noticed a little blister. The blister grew & grew like some alien life form. This morning it was sore & by 12 my foot looked like a balloon - a blue & red, itchy & warm to the touch balloon. After 2 pharmacists, NHS direct, surgery nurse & GP I am now armed with a bottle of antibiotics to fight off the attack.

I upset the entire neighbourhood (consisting of 2 houses). Chiris, the neighbour, gets a lift into town with me every morning and because I left work earlier C had to take a detour from his work to pick her up. He got stuck in traffic & Chris had to stand on the street corner waiting.

All got home safe albeit a bit later thn usual & we had some biltong to make us feel better.
