R and I spent most of the day consolidating our Christmas preparations – checking lists, wrapping gifts, and so on. The weather was dreary, and I was so tired that I doubt I’d have wanted to go out in any … Continued

Short ears

Old friends

B’s current cold includes a horrible cough, and a huge coughing fit woke him at 10pm last night. Luckily I managed to get to him before he roused fully, and after I’d talked to him quietly for a couple of … Continued
