Midweek

It's the middle of the week. It's a rainy and blustery week and also a very busy week at work. James had a bad cough before he went on his hill walking weekend and he came back on Sunday evening really quite ill. Needless to say he refused to take any time off work, but is now gradually improving. I have heard several bits of bad news this week - serious health problems affecting people that I know - it makes me more keen than ever to try to sort out my life before it's too late. Tom and Ruby are not letting the weather get them down; they are full of life and it amuses me to see Tom "helping" James to tie his shoelaces in the mornings!
