Realised it has been a long time since i wrote anything. I usually spend so long reading my alerts i am too tired to write, so tonight i am writing first.
I don't know why some have an alert for me posting yesterday cos i wrote nothing but i suspect AOL will have had something to do with it.
Some people have asked how come i got a free room at the B&B. This is where things have a different meaning across the pond. By free i meant the room was empty (vacant) and avaible for the dates i wanted, unfortunately i still had to pay.
And yes i have been to the B&B and she seemed like a normal women of about my age so i mentioned how she must have thought me peculiar on the phone with my questions. Bless her she said she didn't really remember but totally understood as she had a similar problem (menapausal).
Someone was paying me back cos as we drove off on the start of our break i could feel the beginnings of a sore throat. By the time we got there i was in the throes of a bad cold complete with pounding head. I very rarely get a cold and i was cross. The next day i dragged myself round Ely and then back to the B&B and laid down for a sleep. We then went to dinner and i felt dreadful. We got back to the B&B about 8pm and i went to bed and for the next 3 hours had a raging temperature and then it went as quick as it came.
The next day we were supposed to go to Cambridge but i felt too wiped out for that and anyway Kings College grounds were shut for exams, so we just went round somewhere closer and smaller.
The next day we came home and by the evening my daughter phoned asking if we could look after my g'daughter while she took my g'son to A&E. In a row with a friend, his friend had hit him round the ankle twice with a cricket bat and in trying to get away he had twisted his ankle as well. That eveing A&E was full of kids withbroken limbs and it was 3am before my daughter got back. Thankfully g'son had just bad bruising and twisted ankle but he still had to be on crutches for two weeks. It is still sore but he is now running around again. But for us this meant another day of our break had been taken up as we was very tired for the next few days.
Then it was time to go back to work and that was the end of that weeks holiday.
Thursday i am going to listen to my g'daughter sing a solo for the guide commissioner at her guides open day and last sunday i became a great grandmother. I AM TOO YOUNG.
But i thank God for the safe delivery of a new baby boy.
