So after the problem with my middle son going into school yesterday, I then had to see my daughter’s nursery teacher about the arrangements for next Tuesday (the dreaded hysteroscopy).
She’s been brilliant going into class without my help. But . . . . her teacher invited me into the classroom to talk privately. Big mistake as my daughter saw me and started crying for me! I let the classroom assistant help her out as I didn’t want to mess up the routine she has established and then gave her a big cuddle before she went off to her group. Sorted, but could have done without it.
I have friends on standby to let me drop the children off at 7.00 am next Tuesday, which is brilliant. I have another friend who has also offered to pick the boys up for me. It’s so good to have people to rely on who are willing to help. After all it’s a big favour asking people to be ready for me at that time of the morning.
Apparently all the ’surgery’ is carried out in the morning, you rest up for a couple of hours afterwards to make sure you have no adverse reactions, then you can go home.
I’m not looking forward to it, and am having to console myself with the idea that at least I might get a couple of hours uninterrupted sleep. The instructions (amongst other things) also say I’m not allowed to operate a cooker and kettle for up to 48 hours afterwards. Or was that a week!! (Probably won’t get away with that one). Still I’ll milk it for what I can. :-)
Also on a positive note, mom got behind the wheel of her car today, with no problems. I made her do two emergency stops like they do when you take your test!
Onwards and upwards!

I read somewhere that you are strictly forbidden to do *any* sort of housework until at least six months afterwards…..
Now where did I read that?

Don’t care where you’ve read it, that’s good enough for me!
