Another Day in Happy Happy Land

That's it, I quit!
Oh, yeah, there's no quitting when the husband's away. Miss Ky has been good enough to share her cold with me, but while she naps, I am still picking up the destruction left in her path. You see, this serves me right because I was dancing lightly through the daffodils with my rosy vision of motherhood just yesterday and so today-- the world came to a halt (for 3.5 seconds-- the time mothers are allowed to take a break) when my head suddenly gained 20 pounds (about a stone and a half if we want to have our All Things British lesson for today).
I already type in the dark (one of the little vultures will know I am down here and join me if I switch on a light), but now I have to sit a little like Eliza Doolittle in training to keep my nose from running off on it's own. What a great life....
