New Year visitors
Jan. 3rd, 2003 11:28 amThe New Year started well; Ryan & Beatrice have settled back into their old sleeping patterns (a 9am start), the electrical repair is working, and
triskellian &
smiorgan came for dinner.
( People who can talk ! )
Meanwhile, the twins seem to be happy despite the lack of doting grandparents, aunts and uncles (OK, so they barely saw their uncles). Ryan has managed to climb the first step of the stairs whilst Beatrice is making some heroic-yet-unsuccessful attempts at crawling. The only downside is that they are fighting over the musical snail (thirty tracks - played at random) and consequently my days are currently filled with half-finished nursery rhymes.
In other news, I have finally finished Miss Smilla's Feeling for Snow. Frances bought it for me when I was in hospital, at the end of 2001, and I lost it when I first came home (only a few chapters in). I finally found it again a few weeks ago and I finished it over Christmas. I enjoyed it, but I'll leave out a review as
venta did one a few weeks ago.
