I can hear

I finally feel better. For the past two weeks I have been feeling yuck - viruses, deafness etc. Ailments that make me feel as though my body is falling apart. Went to the Dr - got my ear syringed and wow what a difference. I feel a part of life once more. Not just one sense has been restored but amazingly all. I can see better, taste better, feel better and most importantly hear better.

The builders are still demolishing the bathrooms. Today the jack-hammers started to remove the floors. The concrete might be 2 inches thick but has been treated with a substance that has made it super strong. Light fittings downstairs have been removed, dust is falling around us and the house is shaking. We still have a rook over our heads.

The noise has kept Titi up from his lunchtime sleep. The kids became feral just before dinner. Thank god we decided to cancel our dinner out arrangements otherwise it would have been mayhem in public rather than the relative privacy of home. Apologies to the neighbours for screaming outside the back door after one was relegated outside to calm down.

Ahh peace at last - all three fed, washed, read to and tucked up in bed. The reset buttons have been pushed and they are quiet and peaceful. WHERE'S THE CHOCOLATE!!
