Pinkie Pain

Well, its been a funny old kind of day. I knitted some Christmas baubles (pics to follow) at work, and was very pleased with the results. In general my mood was quite low though. I was recently diagnosed with a bone disorder which causes me an enormous amount of pain. I am taking 2 kinds of medication to alleviate the  symptoms some what, but the efficiency of the medication is not the same every day and today was a not very efficient day.

It would have been sensible to go home and lie down, but I very rarely choose the sensible thing (where I am concerned, not anyone else), and decided I had had enough of white walls in every corner of the flat.

Oscar came home crying and Muma had to get the first aid kit out.




He shut his finger in the heavy school gate coming out of after school club.



I didn't dare say it at the time but there is a very high possibility of that little nail coming off.

Luckily it was his left hand that was hurt because his homework was to go on a 'wintery walk' and draw or photograph what you saw,


the city lights and the moon reflected in the sea


Tonight is night 4 of Hanukkah and its still very lovely lighting the candles and saying the blessings. I had intended to make some Latkes tonight, but with one thing and another I never managed to get to it. I had eggs cooked in oil, does that count I wonder?




I have a busy few days/evenings coming up again and although I love this time of year I really dislike being run off my feet. I haven't decided on opening times during the Christmas break, but I cant see Oscar wanting to hang out in the shop with me, I guess we will struggle muddle through as best we can.

I am exhausted (and sore) now, and I had planned to eat my fudge and read my new book, from the comfort of my cosy wee bed, however the fudge seems to have gone missing??? I am 99% sure I haven't eaten it already.

Ah well never mind, there is still mint ice-cream.

ps, I wish the kitten wasn't so interested in the Menorah, its an accident waiting to happen.
