September arrives

 It's a busy month, end of school holidays, so daughter came on bank holiday Monday with her 3, we had a simple BBQ which we ate inside as it was blustry, it was cooler after heavy rain in the night, the fake grass was dry, so the little ones could play. George has a new balance bike, he was unsure for the shortest time, he loves it.

I stitched George's swimming badge in his robe and did a small repair on Will's favourite T shirt. The badge needs to be very secure,  George will pick at any loose bits.

It was hubby's birthday this week, he's 77, we had a quiet day, the children came for birthday cake, this year a lemon drizzle one, again the children asked him to make one instead of purchasing one, he was happy to do, I did offer to bake one for him, a selection of cards including the 'joke' one.

After a chance meeting, she returns to her past, to make sense of the death of her boyfriend in a fire at a research centre, what she remembers is not the same as others, now she is trying to save her family.  Book 65 read this year

A sequel to the above book, it's a couple years later, she is asked to go to USA, a deadly virus is loose in LA, she can help, her family are in different locations and in danger. The plot was a bit farce, interesting enough. Book 66 read this year.

Daughter was here with children Monday and Tuesday, we both love the laughter they bring, both days they played outside, all three used the new balance bike, Molly and George are the same height, daughter is again often asked if they are twins. Monday was quiet later, sat reading, Tuesday they were home by lunchtime, with other commitments. Later a neighbour popped in for coffee and a chat and 8 lovely fresh eggs from her chickens, I sat reading for the rest of the time, my tummy issues are back, I have spoken to the doctor, I think I have more test coming, I'm feeling uncomfortable whilst taking tablets every day, it's good to know my doctor is keen to find out why.  

Wednesday was a day at home, Will went back to school, Molly and George go back on Thursday, we don't have my car, daughter is using it, her car is back in the garage for a couple of days. Later we packed our holiday bags for a short break together, staying in UK.

Today we have a 3 hour drive to hubbys sister, we are spending the night with her and driving to our home gor the following 5 days.
