I do seem to be more busy than I meant to be... I suppose I knew that I would be for a couple of weeks. Holiday, then straight to Job 2, and dentist and doctor in between. On top of that, laptop issues (including with the new one, which means I kind of need to return it after all - but I'd need to get my old one sorted to do Job 2 (for this last time!) first, and... argh and ack!

To cap it off, R. is being really difficult at the moment, to the point that I feel like the wicked stepmother or something! A, at least, is mostly still delightful, except when she copies R. at one of her awkward things, like her tantrum-wail when she doesn't get her way! But its fun seeing her learn new words - she's at the stage where she's frustrated because she can almost make herself understood, but not always... and she can now do stuff independently, cos she can walk and she's just grown taller and more stretchy - only to find that people keep trying to stop her... Aww!

I think it's kind of all good, mostly... though on top of all that, there's mid-year tax to deal with, which I'd completely forgotten about - ack! See - I keep adding things to the pile!

How're you doing? I haven't forgotten you, I'm just... chasing my tail a bit, as they say! *g*
