this is the big sugar ship going by on the way to the sugar refinery. it’s the height of these boats which determined how high the harbour bridge should be. how’s about that then fact fans?
esther had orchestra practice before school so needed both her violin and her trombone and her sports kit and usual school bag. so we both got the bus together and i carried her trombone. then i got on another bus to get to work. that system seems to work well.
esther got an ‘excellent’ for her badminton test and the teacher said she was a natural. that’s good.
kezia went to zumba after school and esther had her tennis lesson.
jane went to meet the new owners of the language teaching franchise this evening (the one we didn’t buy). nothing much to report from that.
and i managed to make it through my first day in the office in over a week without too much pain or illness. my presentation went ok this morning
this afternoon i went back to the doctors to see about my continuing pains. the doctor was good and thought i could have passed a small kidney stone or something last week which was the pain, and the pain generally had triggered my IBS hence the ongoing pains. I’ve been given some muscle drugs to go with the other drugs and hopefully should see some improvements in the next week. The x-rays didn’t find any kidney stones and the all my other tests came back ok this week (unlike last week) so the doctor didn’t seem too worried. and i think i’m a bit less painful than i’ve been before
so, all good i think.
