Holiday :)

Today is the first of 11 days off work, not away, just at home but I'm very relieved to be having a break............
Paul's dad is in hospital, has been since sunday, when he was rushed in, short of breath, and the discovered bilateral pleural effusions. He's ok, fed up and uncomfortable, and its taking them a while to get his left lung re inflated, and only then will they do some tests to find out what's caused it (I'm assuming the obvious). Paul's mum seems ok. The family are coping............so not as bad as it could have been.
I'm learning to enjoy a days calm when I can, and no work is lovely, I enjoy lots of my job, but not all of it, but I know I'm lucky to have has as much freedom as I have up to now.
I have a few plans for this week, but not too many - and today the sun is shining, with a reasonable chance of more sunshine
Oh and last night Katy and Toby and Archie stayed over, and I'm still dog sitting, and Katy will be home at 3 - I'm out of practice on this - hope I don't forget!
