Swimming

At last the kids are well enough to use the pool, but I'm the one now with the flu. I have actually never heard of it, but I was told I had pharyngitis. All I know is it is a horribly painful sore throat; everytime I swallow it feels like I am swallowing razor blades. Coupled with the tiredness, I have had a slow week of it.


We have managed to get to playgroup twice this week. I've re-entered the fray and decided my 3-year-old needs some more stimulus than morning TV shows and the occasional play with friends. As it is, most of his friends have started kindegarten; he has to wait another 12 months to start because he was born after June 30. So we went to playgroup this week and he's having a great time. There was a special fun day on Thursday, with lots of slime, painting and sand play to get dirty with. More people than normal were there, so lots more children to play with too.


So it's the weekend again, and I've not managed another entry since last weekend. Hopefully something wonderful will happen this weekend and I'll have to jot it down for you to read. But for now it's back to "watching" the kids in the pool and, later, time for Friday night crime.
