Our forced week at the beach has now been extended to two!

Every cloud has a silver lining . . .

and for me this is the rest much needed.

I have even read books!

And so to answer Big Sister's question . . .

Here are the books I have read!

A story from Taiwan

A story from Ethiopia

A story from Vietnam

Adding to the tears and tulmultuous times

was Mr Capable!

Heading out on his bicycle the week before work began seemed like a good idea.

Until he was hit from behind by a motorcylclist.

Thankfully his helmet protected his head.

He did however land heavily on his back

fracturing a verebra.

A week in hospital.

6 weeks in a brace.

3 months later and today he was given the all clear.

The doctor mentioned that he could also now take part in contact sports.

I am not so sure!

Absence makes the heart grow fonder . . .

and how I have missed my little bit of 'me' time sharing my thoughts!

It has been some time since I

have posted on our blog.

Infact it was during our summer adventure to our homeland that I last logged in!

So much has happenned since then and it is only now during our 'forced'week at the beach

that I have the head space to contemplate doing so.

I will endeavour to fill in the gaps in installments!

August saw the beginning of the new academic year and a new position of Leadership for me.

All good in theory.

In reality it has been

tumultuous

tedious

and full of tears

infact

bucket loads

of

tears!

I do believe that I have indeed become

The Little Red Hen!
