Christmas Tree falls over

Christmas Tree
When you want everything to be simple, it rarely is!  Our Christmas Tree fell over and came out of the stand.  It has now been re-erected, but remains skewy!  The decorations are mostly on the floor!  Another job for us tomorrow.

In bed mostly
Yesterday, I spent most of my day in bed, apart from a little jaunt into the bath.  I did have a walk to the post office.  Martha and Katy had a busy day out with Dave.  They were home in time for Strictly :).

Homework
Today, we spent all morning completing their homework.  Martha was reviewing Nelson Mandela's life and, for numeracy, problem solving.  Katy completed a numeracy test and wrote rules for surviving school.  Katy had additional web-based homework, which I think must have been set by accident.  She completed median, and mode questions.  She skipped the histograms!

The tree keeled over during the homework.

Steel Pans
A giant cooked breakfast for lunch, with perfect eggs!  Martha played the steel pans in church, this afternoon.  I took Martha and Katy there, but had to come home again, feeling very poorly.  Back to bed ,,,  Friends brought them home, and gave us all a lift to swimming club.


My health
I think I am on day 5 of no steroids.  My left eye is swollen, but is not uncomfortable.  Half my hair loss is growing back; I am now half a monk!  My head remains painful to touch - it is usually uncomfortable when I am trying to go to sleep.  I am not taking many painkillers, which is good.

Got to go back to bed!
Have a good week
love Sarah xxx
