Sting

If you're gonna get stung, do it on index finger of dominant hand.

OW.

Also, dizzy from pain vs dizzy from antihistamines = no win.

(We are unaffected by the floods. Yay for paranoia and relief maps at time of purchase.)

Bloody awful week. Fortnight. Whatever.

Puerperal psychosis, job losses, sexually abused four-year-olds, friends with fatal illnesses with known time-left allowances, flood-induced homelessness, life-induced homelessness, and a beesting.

And that's just people in my immediate circle.

Good stuff, for balance

My therapy will be monthly from now on.

We made it to the farmers' market.

We had a guest from forn parts who was very popular with the children.

We had a guest from London who was ditto.

Linnea has the most gorgeous house in the world ever, in the garden.

Rob had an excuse for manual work.

The cats have all been to the vet.

The garden gets better weekly.

Rob is the best partner I could ever have hoped for, in every way that matters.
