Don't Scratch........

 
A quick trip to the garden centre last week and a short wander round our garden just to decide with Hubby where to plant each new shrub and I've an arm full of insect bites! They itch soooooo much!

A lovely family evening for Mother's Day on Sunday.
Frustrating bit was Daughter ordering Chinese takeaway online and it took almost three hours to get here! So the grandchildren resorted to playing Trivial Pursuit. 
R, E and O also collaborated in making us mums personalised cards. 
Son brought flowers and chocolates and cake and he paid halves with Daughter for the Chinese, although as it arrived so late (9pm ish) he boxed up for him and fiancé (who had felt a little unwell and hadn't come) and took it home. 

SisterS caught me out with her April Fool joke, together with bilK they are on a two month grand tour of New Zealand and Australia packed with tours, events and a couple of visits to relatives slotted in. Her message read "We had a boring day today, nothing much to see" I reassured her that a rest day will do them both good! Then she sent the photos of all they had really done. Hahaha

Hope I'm not speaking too soon but now in my second week of taking these evil pills at the 20mg dose and some side effects but so far much more tolerable than before. Fingers crossed eh? 


Hubby actually came with me to see one of the final preview performances of the play R and cast are taking to New York. 
It was the same powerful performance I remember seeing the first time in 2023. Afterwards, when we gave R a lift home, she told us so much of it went wrong but honestly in the audience we didn't notice one hiccup. 

Supermarket daffs are so worth the £1 per bunch for the smile they bring. 
So a good week all round really (apart from the itch).
