A little bit about nothing

Hi everyone! I really don't have anything too exciting to report today so it is likely to be a post with a whole lot of rambling about nothing... 

We've enjoyed a lovely morning playing at the park with our gorgeous Mums Group pals and have just returned from an impromptu doctors appointment for Sophie. She woke up yesterday with a puffy top lip and I did all the usual stuff like antihistamine and ice and hoped that it would resolve itself. When she woke up this morning though, it hadn't improved so I took her off to the doctors just to be sure. Not surprisingly, the doctor looked at me like I was "one of those" Mums that takes their child to see the GP for no real reason at all. He suggested I continue with the antihistamine and if things were not better in a week, come back. I think I am getting used to that look from Doctors but I would rather be over the top and have my child checked out than do nothing at all and have whatever the ailment turn into something serious.

As for our time at the park, when I arrived I was the first one there from our group. There were a couple of other Mums playing with their one child and having a lovely time. I kind of felt compelled to play with my kids seeing these beautiful interactions going on, but then I got my wits about me: today is Thursday, the one morning a week that I don't have to entertain the kids because they spend the time running amok with their friends! I put our bags down at a table and cheered and praised the kids from the sidelines instead. All was right with the world :)

Other than that, absolutely nothing worth writing about has happened in the last 24 hours. It's kind of nice to go at a slower pace when you consider the usual chaos that I write about. In fact, I think I will have a cup of tea and catch the end of Dr Phil before getting on with the afternoon chores. Bye :)
