Monday’s Child: Rare Edition
Yes, a rare photo of Cas AND his Mum.
We went to see The Medieval Imagination exhibition at the State Library a little while ago with a couple of friends; Brett from Airminded, and HG, who wrote that beautiful guest post for me. That meant there was somebody other than me to hold the camera and that is, I think, one of the best presents you can give a single parent.
In other news…
I haven’t been very well, hence my long absence.
I haven’t been very well, hence 1st semester uni was really screwed up. I’ll do better next time.
A girlfriend gave me her old car. Hooray for being able to grocery shopping with ease! (And see friends at the State Library). The car is sadly purple but my friend still rocks, obviously.
We’ve received some parcels for WinterWarm, which is also great, and I’ll be working on some blog posts for that this week.
There is a couple of other (possible) good news items but I don’t want to jinx them so… we’ll see.
And my Mum will be visiting soon which means I will get to have a sleep in for the first time in a year.
I’ll also be able to get to see my doctor, with Mum babysitting and me in my shiny, purple car. So hopefully health won’t be an issue for much longer.
Hugs to everyone I’ve abandoned and I will be trying to catch up with you all soon.

Gosh, Caspar’s getting to be a big boy! And just as beautiful as ever; no wonder you look so happy. Lovely to see you both. Trust it means you’re better now.
How great that you’ve got a vehicle at last! (Purple is my favourite colour, so I would ADORE a purple car.)
Welcome back! Lots of love!
Oh, and illuminated manuscripts are very much my idea of something worth seeing, too.

Lovely to see your beautiful smiling face again.
And great to hear from you.

@ Rosemary - He is, isn’t he? The terrible twos are just around the corner. Of course, he won’t be so terrible. Because he is an angel.
And you are the third person that has said that to me about the car’s colour. Me, I’d like a custard yellow vintage convertible.
The manucripts were great although the exhibition was packed so it was hard to get a good look at everything. The best ones were those of the non-religious texts, I thought (I guess I’ve seen a lot of those before so they weren’t as exciting.) Lots of astronomy and odd medieval science. All weird and beautiful.
Healthwise, not so great. But Mum will be here soon and I will get a chance to rest because she will monopolise Cas.
@ Musing and Lightening - Thank you. I’ve missed you guys too and I’m really happy to hear from you both. Haven’t been doing much reading of late, as you would have noticed because my silence wasn’t just here. But I’ll be fixing that. {{{hugs}}}

For posterity, I think Cas was saying “Look! A tram!”
