It has been some time since we've had any rain. It isn't exactly pissing it down (pardon me) but it is enough that the plants may have a decent drink and revive themselves.

I'm feeling a bit better. I've been on medication for 4 weeks which is meant to help. My doctor did say it takes a bit of time to make a change but perhaps it is doing so. It was a bit of a disappointment to need that sort of assistance I suppose, but one does what one must.

Michael's piano lessons are coming on well enough. He can find middle C and he has mastered playing fortissimo without being taught. (chuckles) He is not shy about it, and actually is a good student. I told him we shall take on the oboe next at which point he gave me a very unkind look.

We attended a wedding last Saturday. It was lovely and the carvery roast that was served at the reception was perhaps one of the best I've had. The happy couple have had their share of good and bad in the past four years of engagement. In the end it all comes down to love and commitment. I do wish them both well in their continuing journey through life. As they survived Michael's confetti cannon I imagine they will do very nicely in future.

I fear this will be a short post as it is time to wake the boy from his rest. I do mean to petition Ms once more concerning a solution for his snoring. Why a fit boy should snore like that is beyond my comprehension. Perhaps there is something amiss?

I wish you all a lovely day.
