So much to do, so little time
We’re not having a very productive week and the list of things I want to get done is getting ever longer! We had the removals assessor round today and the move is going to take a day longer than we were planning for, because we have so much stuff. So we need to rethink where we are staying as we move - won’t be able to use the £10 Travelodge room I’d booked, though I’m booking a different one for the next night. We need to pack our bookcases and a triple wardrobe that is full of craft things and allsorts, so that we have room to take the wardrobe apart. This weekend is the only one before we move when A is home to help. The week before we move we’re on holiday to Melrose and the week before that A is away all week on an MRT course.
M and I have colds and we’ve hardly done anything this week. I suppose there’s been some autonomous ed with M playing on the computer alot. We finally found the tutorial bit of SimIsle (game he got for Christmas) so he’s made alot of progress now on that. When he spends too much time on the computer he gets reallt ratty though. He’s also been finishing off his Astrosaurs book - it’s good now he can read more for himself. Though I need to teach him about how annoying it is having him read my emails over my shoulder!
I’m feeling like I’ve been run over and had a horrible night last night. I just couldn’t get warm and didn’t sleep well, then from about 2am L was crying and feeding and couldn’t get settled. About 5am I eventually realised the back of his neck was soaking so I changed his pyjama top and A got him off to sleep on his chest. This morning I could see a massive area on the back of L’s neck was red raw and weeping. No wonder he was upset and scratching so much.
We’ve been to the GP’s this afternoon and had half the pharmacy prescribed. We now have different moisturiser, bath oil, antibiotic cream, hydrocortisone (not happy about that but his skin is so raw I’m willing to use it) and anti-histamine 
I don’t think there’s been any improvement in his skin since I cut out dairy etc and I’m seriously fed up of cutting everything out, especially when I feel unwell. Might reintroduce one thing back every couple of days, just in case I suddenly react to something I’ve cut out.
Early night and watch Desperate Housewives in bed I think.
And now I can’t even blog this cos Blogsome is down until tomorrow morning. Grrr….
