Plague..

Well, it has finally happened, the monster has come down with chicken pox. He has been exposed so many times and never caught it but now he is officially with pox. Having said that though, it seems to be a very mild case. Only a handful of spots, no itching and as bright and happy as he always it. With any luck it won't get any worse. The bad part from his point of view is having to submit to the calamine lotion. He hates it and wiggles so much that most of it ends up on me. Bribed him with chocolate to stay still but even that didn't work!

We spent the weekend painting his room and visiting with friends. I had not intended to do the ceiling but now the walls look fresh and bright the ceiling looks awful. Guess I know what I will be doing this weekend.

Evil mom that I am we are still doing lesson despite the pox. Our next science kit came so we having been building our own weather station. It seems to work, it can't be any less accurate than the bbc!

Housewise things are ticking over, we have decided to put back our completion date until April 27 as M is working almost every weekend in April. By putting it back we will have time to get the floor laid on the ground floor and hopefully finish up the work that needs doing here. Still no viewings on this house which is frustrating, keep your fingers crossed that we will get a tennant soon.
