Update on the week

Grace went to school yesterday, she managed to complete the day and only asked the teacher to phone me at 3.15. The teacher told her that she only needed to wait another 15 minutes until I got there, but she said her tummy pains were so severe that she just couldn't stand anymore.

Faye collected her from school as she was nearer to home than I was, and when I got home she was fine, just desperate for something to eat. I explained to the teacher this morning that it may be that they should try giving her a piece of fruit first to stem the hunger as she has been used to being able to eat when she wants during the summer and now she is back in school routine and that she will adjust.

This morning there is no tummy pain and she seems more refreshed and able to cope with the day, so hopefully it won't be long before she gets back into the routine.
She was definitely quite perky last night, and wanted to play in the garden for the first time in a while, trouble is the garden is not a very friendly place presently.

We have been informed that we should have a roof by Wednesday and that next week is the week when the wall is going to be knocked through (probably the messiest bit)so I will be having lots of fun trying to keep dust at bay.

Meanwhile here is an update of the progress on
the kitchen as modelled by Grace. Also an opportunity to view the builders on their lunch break at 9.30am yesterday morning?! Billy, Sammy and Mick affectionately known to us as Harry, Ron and Reg. Billy is the one with cake around his mouth.
