Time and space (2)

I'd been trying to finish some work all week and what with the children off school and nursery, it had been a futile mission.

Until the weekend, when Simon took the kids off to his Mum's for a visit, and I was able to clear the backlog.

It was all going so well, until that is, I developed a temperature and felt like plop.

Cue the lane to the rescue and the children their friends to play with. (I live within a lovely community otherwise known as a bubble).

The peace and quiet has been astounding. For the first time in a very long time, I've heard the house breathe. (I may have heard it sigh too - it is such a bloody mess).
