Reasons to be cheerful....

Dad came home on Thursday. I can't say he's fine, but he is much better. He's confined to upstairs and can't get out of bed much, but he's well in himself. He has a couple of cracking scars and still has a feeding tube, which he hates. But at least he's home. And his doc is very pleased with how everything went. So it's just a matter of time now while he heals.

And Jamie gave me a lay in this morning! Those of you on face book will know that the other day he decided to get up at 1.30am!!!!!!!!! Well he made up for it today. I woke at about nine with a sudden panic that he wasn't knocking to get up (he knocks on the inside of his door when he want to get up). I went to check him but he was still fast asleep. So I went back to bed, hurahh. Luckily for me Richard had given me the day off today. Usually I would be working on a Saturday. So it worked out perfectly. I got a proper lay in, the first for.....ummm....can't remember.

My agent now has 'Digging for Victoria' on ten CD's to send out, fingers crossed.

Now it the climate would just hurry up and remember that it's summer!?!? Ok rain is good. The gardens need it etc. But really, enough already!

Great news for you, I have been told next week weather mixed and then improving for a long hot spell, surely we can't have another summer like last year?

Congrats on your dad! Congrats, also, on your sleep-in Saturday morning!

forgot to say ~ 14 yr. old daughter is bonkers for Twilight. She made a blog a while back and has a funny (also sad) post up about her Twilight sleepover last Fall. If you're interested in a 14 yr. old's Twilight hysteria, you can visit www.sunglassesandricecrispies.blogspot.com for a giggle.

Great that your Dad is home & on the road to recovery.

How exciting that your novel is being sent out.

Nothing as blissful as a lovely lie in when you're so used to being woken up at silly-o'clock.

And the rain.....well it sure better stop - I don't fancy yet another school holidays stuck inside.

Lots of good news there and lots of positive thoughts still being sent your way. I particularly liked the 'my agent' line :) (squreal!) x

I hope your dad is still doing well.

Has summer arrived yet? It hasn't in Suffolk yet. I thought this year we supposed to be a scorcher?!!
