1. I'm having a rubbish day, and put a sorry-for-myself status on Facebook. This shameless piece of attention-seeking gets a pleasing amount of sympathy. Of course, it's not a card I play often...
2. Nick brought home freesias on Thursday. The buttercup yellow trumpets at the tops of the sprays are beginning to collapse into soft wrinkles; but new blooms are opening on the tips.
3. I have had enough baby today. He's been lying on me all afternoon, and then feeding and feeding and feeding all evening. Finally at 10pm he stops, milk dribbling out of the corner of his mouth. I hand him to Nick, seize my book, dash into the bathroom and run myself a bubbly bath.
