i woke up this morning with massive pain in my kidney area. that set the tone for the rest of the day. thankfully the pain had subsided by 8.30 when jane took me to our doctors. whilst there i had an x-ray to rule out kidney stones (i’ve not heard anything back so assume that was negative). i’ve now got various medicines and I’ll go back next week to see how they are working.
jane missed mainly music to take me to the doctors but then went along anyway as i had a bit of a wait, but the mainly music people sent her back to me!
i spent the rest of the day managing to work from home despite the doctor giving me a note saying i’m medically unfit to work for the rest of this week (hah – i know best). I’m ok working from home though.
jane then took my car to be re-tired, which actually only cost $25 as they could repair the tyre. she also bought a new violin bow for esther from a violin expert.
then we tested the home smoke detectors which did their job beautifully, warning us that something was about to set on fire. queue much rushing about by jane and me. the smoke alarms are connected to the home burglar alarm and poor Pearl was a little traumatised by the time we’d found the Code and turned everything off (and then off again as the smoke detectors kept on triggering). Pearl sat at the bottom of the stares shaking for a while after that.
this afternoon jane had her teaching lesson and the kids were naughty to that was rubbish too.
this evening esther’s out at her church youth club and the rest of us are going to bed early and pretend today didn’t happen!
