catch up

Bug has been brilliant the last two pick ups at nursery. On Thursday and today he has happily come running to me when I arrive to take him home. Very pleased and hope it continues. I think explaining to him what's going to happen has helped a lot. I also think that him understanding he gets to go back to nursery is also helping. Then, of course, he's getting used to dropping his afternoon nap. Although yesterday he did have a nap on his bedroom floor.

Yesterday my baby nephew turned two years old. Where have the last two years gone? It really doesn't feel like that much time has passed. 

On Saturday I went to the city with my sister (who I might give the pseudo name Gwen ;)) and it ws a lovely day. I picked her up at 9am, stopped off for some much needed coffee (cinnamon latte to go) and then headed to the train station. This train station meant only a 15 minute train ride into the city, free parking and no city driving stress. 

We headed to the art store where we both got some bits and pieces. Then we went a wander before going for lunch. More wandering. I got L clothes for his birthday. We also found this little market place where we got some hand made soap. Lush. Then back to the train station. Lovely day. 

On Friday I went down to visit my friend L. I hadn't seen her for a few weeks. We went to the cinema to see "The Heat" which I'd seen before but was funny. After the cinema I went back to hers for some tea and a catch up before heading home. 

So that's what I've been up to. 

Surgery is eight days away but I'll write more on that later.
