Welcome to the House of Snot

We are all coughing and spluttering with some mid winter cooties and lurgi and stuff at the moment. Freya was a bit sick on Thursday, we thought it was pneumonic plague or perhaps dutch elm disease, so I took the day off to look after her. I needed to go to school to get some stuff (such as the answer sheet to the exam I will get around to marking shortly...) and Freya charmed everyone by being really quiet and hiding behind my legs. Once she had got the idea of talking to people she was better, when one of the other teachers popped in to talk to me she said "I'm Freya!".

Today we all have come down with the same sort of lurgi, and have taken it fairly easy, although I traipsed across half of Melbourne or perhaps Australia to pick up a funky wee bedside table for Freya's room that we got off ebay.

Glad that it's the shortest day this weekend... these dark mornings are a bit tedious.
