Oh dear!!

I've not had a good day. The children and I woke a little later than we should have this morning, but never the less we all managed to bundle into the car at our normal time this morning. All in good time to get to work and school. Samuel was strapping himself in and we were saying (quite smugly) how well we had done to get everything done. I reversed to get our of my parking place and CRUNCH!!!!!! Samuel had left his car door open and it crunched into the hedge on the passenger side and had made an almighty mess of the door. The door panel is buckled and the hinge is bent and I was very very sad :-(    Bless poor Samuel he was mortified and was crying - which is never a good start to the day. I too was really upset and had to get Ben down to the car to have a look (and to close the door as I was unable!). What a pain. My Benjamin is a star on the other hand - or he is just used to me messing the car up - as he kept saying as long as you are all alright then its only the car.............I'm sure he wasn't thinking that inside but he didn't show it. I've felt awful all day made better only due to the many texts from Ben checking I was alright !!

I did get to work in Liskeard Hospital todaywhich make a nice change. I haven't seen the lovely Liskeard ladies in ages so it was good to catch up. We have decided to go to London at the end of March on a trip organised by Unison to march and protest about the beak up of the NHS. Sounds like fun and I will have felt like I have contributed to the many efforts of people who are not happy with what is happening. Liz would be a good one to go on the trip she would make sure she was heard hehe.

Its been so very cold in Launceston and Liskeard today so I am very pleased to be back in my lovely home all snug. Tamsyn and Emily and snuggled up on the sofa watching Dispicable Me and Samuel has just come back from playing football and cricket up at the park with Uncle Andi. He's quite cold but will only have to go back out again in a little while to go and play rugby! Poor thing he will be like an ice block later on.

My mugs arrived today YEAH xx They are so fabulous and I love them. I think I will order some more next month when I get paid :-) I can wait to give them to Mum and Benjamin (Mothers day is only in a month's time, but I will have to wait until May for Bens birthday.......I think I may not last that long and give it to him sooner....they are too nice to be hidden away.....!)

Tamsyn is a stripy lady as I speak. My friend Tracy has given her a top and a jumper with pink and white stripes from Boden today and she looks very qute. She is so tired, I think having to go to school is a bit of a shock to the system after our lovely half term. Me thinks tea, a bath and a very early night xxx
