A productive morning

[ailbhe]

Got up, checked email and livejournal, had breakfast, brushed teeth and supervised Linnea's teethbrushing, washed dishes, cleaned kitchen, made dinner (hurrah for the slow cooker!), tidied downstairs, went to the doctor to confirm I'm well and that not finishing the course of antibiotics was ok, went to the library to return and take out books, went to the charity shop and bought some knitting needles and some yarn (eek! I have a Stash now! Somebody stop me!), fed Linnea her snack outside the library while I knitted, came home, fed and changed Linnea, and put her down for her nap. That was at 11:00. Then I read email and livejournal, bought a permanent account on lj, and gave my remaining paid time to lnc so that I can update that by email if I need to.

Shopkeepers all along the road know who Linnea is - they say "Hello, not on Daddy's back today, hey?" to her. By thy baby shall they know thee.

Now I need to wash some floor, and have some tea, and knit some.

The library couldn't find the Mantlemass books. I didn't dream them, did I? I'm sure I saw them on Amazon a while ago.

They're out of print, I think. Last time I saw them for sale was a set of five for about £30.

WOW!

You MUST be better! I'm so glad. You've sounded so miserable recently because of the illness on top of everything else. It's good that you're getting back to your old self again. Wish I could say I'd achieved as much here!

Being off antibiotics seems to agree with you! You sound so much better - I hope you feel it too.

I don't know if these people are any good but they were recommended by a friend of mine who used to have an Antiquarian bookbusiness.

Check out http://www.abebooks.com they seem to have out of print stuff as much as anything else and at reasonable prices. We got delivery of an electronics text which my girlf has ALWAYS wanted to own this morning.

Sounds like you are feeling much better today. I too have bad reactions with antibiotics. I envy you being able to get things done around the house...it seems like forever since i was able to do anything;)

I see that you knit, that is very cool, my grandmother taught me to when I was little, but she always started the stuff for me, I never did figure out how to start a project, but I do crochet:) I am making tyler a blanket for his road trip that we are taking soon:)

Housework: I have a year's headstart, and also flylady.net - she drives me mad but the system really works.

Knitting: I knit now, I never did before, really, though I knew how to cast on. I can highly recommend the Stitch and Bitch book.
