The sleep over has begun..... holy cow, what was I thinkin'?!
The day started by going to hospital--the Emergency Room (Pediatrics actually suggested it since they couldn't get us in until 10 am) for Miss Ky. She had popped the tendon out on her elbow...who knows how, but she was in a lot of pain. Poor little thing. She is fine now and using both arms like nothing ever happened.
A1 received an award today at assembly, but since we were watching Her Highness get x-rays on her arm, we couldn't watch him smile shyly as he was honoured for his great skills in Maths :-(
And if you think I've lost my ability to put a sentence together, let's do an All Things British day, shall we?
Before we moved here, I thought the guidebooks were all messed up. Places were called "Wells-next-the-sea".
Ummm, did you forget to put the "to"?
Oh, wait, there's "Southend-on-sea" as well.
People don't go to THE hospital here, they go to hospital. They go to Temple, and the kids take Maths... which is quite logical really. There isn't just ONE math-- you have geometry, algebra, Trig. etc... so they go to Maths.
And A1 received an award for his.
As much as I'd like to stay and ramble, I've already had three kids come in to tell me what new wound they've received, one getting a punch in the groin by J2... and A1's best mate, Harry has brought a tub of gummies and two bags of marshmallows to share-- I know where you live Jo (his Mum and my now ex-friend)!
Somebody shoot me now. Then take me to hospital so I can get some rest.
I dream of being in a hospital bed, nurses waiting on me like servants, fresh flowers by the bed and sunshine falling over my legs. I yawn. It's so quiet. I think I'll just take a nap.
ReplyDeleteAll this could only happen if I weren't in actual pain. So oh yeah, I only want to be in hospital if I'm not pain. (words deleted on purpose! :-))
i love scones...not so sure about clotted cream...what is it?
ReplyDeleteand...i just told my husband. he said fine but i have to bring my 4 year!! he's attached to me, still, anyway. so....here i come....
I once asked my mother in law this question "Do you think if I went into a hospital and found an empty bed and laid down and went to sleep they would let me stay?" and I was completely serious.
ReplyDeleteI never tried it to find out though. :)
Did you say the dreaded "S" Word? No, you didn't, did you?
ReplyDeleteS-s-s-s-slumber party? Holy crap. I'm having flashbacks. I'm certain I am still suffering from post-traumatic stress from previous, you know, the "s" word things.
Sounds like you are going to be busy! I hope you are able to enjoy the evening and that you'll get a little rest!!
ReplyDeletei want to go to hospital!! i'm in dire need of some r and r!!
ReplyDeletexoxo
Oh, I hope you survived a slumber party. I love reading the Brit was of speaking English. Since a read a few Brits I already knew those, but it is still rather funny, don't you think?
ReplyDeleteHow does SSP not know what clotted cream is? It's practically divine. I had some this morning.
