Helping

Today has been a better day. Despite the Lurgy attacking me in force overnight, I have not been a shouty mummy today and for that I am TRULY grateful. Mainly because Ben has not driven me to distraction today. Probably because he didn't have an early nap and is therefore content to have his jumper and hat on, and help his daddy put the doors on the new bike shed!

Early naps are a pain in the bum. Seriously. They mess up our mealtimes, they make Ben a llot more tired in the afternoon and evening, I can't get anything done without shouting a lot and getting very stressed because Tired Small Person can't make his mind up about anything.

But today, today I suspect Ben will be up quite late owing to him having a very late nap today - went to sleep at 3.45pm. That's seriously late. Woke up at gone 5pm.... Tots tomorrow morning, he can occupy himself while I recuperate with a cup of tea there!

Brrrrrinnng That'll be dinner ready then. Lamb crumble. And all I had to make was the crumble topping :) I love food in the freezer! Nothing to have with it of course, all the fresh veg got eaten up yesterday with the roast dinner....


And I just found a notification that yesterday's blip hit the Spotlight page - and I missed it! Ah well :D


PS... It was this, or another shameless portrait of Ben...

PPS... And if you're interested, tthere's a little bit of an update on the old diabetes here.
