Well guess what I've gone and forgotten THIS time?!!!!

Oh boy! You really are a great lot, you know. Thank you for so many comments after my last navel-gaze. OK that sounds like I am making light of it, but I'm not really. I really do appreciate your words and I hope I've taken some of it on board. There is a lot of wisdom out there! And a lot of kindness, too....

So! What did I forget this time?
Well, I was off to my mum's from Saturday midday-ish till Monday evening.
I took with me-

• some craft stuff (she is getting interested.... slowly.... dipping her toe in.... just.... about..... I'll get her, you see if I don't!);
• extra clothes;
• washbag;
• book;
• camera;
• umbrella (the original one, not the one we bought when I thought I had lost this one -and then lost that one the other week. Ahem.)

Any guesses what I left behind?

if you said "THE BLASTED CAMERA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" then congratulations, you're psychic.
And hence the gap above is not filled with pictures.

HURRUMPFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Luckily, Luvbug has a camera so I'll take some photo's of some stuff I made and post those.
They won't be as good because my camera is better than his, but I bought his as a present and he bought me mine, so less said about quality difference the better. Ahem.

By the way, re some of the other things on the list-

• I didn't forget the umbrella because I forgot I had it and so left it safely in my overnight bag when we went out for a walk. In the rain.
• And I didn't forget my book because my mum mistook my showing it to her in a "hey I'm reading this, it's really good!" kind of way as a "would you like this book?" kind of way. Now SHE is reading it.
• And oh, actually yes, I left the crafty stuff behind as well. The camera was in the same bag. Oops.
  

I'm not getting any better, am I? =)

Not quite normal, not even for me, yet.

Thank you, everyone, for the lovely messages and emails =)

Seems I have had a bad head cold with an upset tummy. Bleagh. No joking; at one point my poo was orange. ORANGE. That's just not normal, is it? At times like that I'd love to be a doctor, the type that works in a lab and knows about stuff like what turns your poo odd colours. Weird.

I've been up and about since Wednesday night and I went out today for the first time in at least a week. Nearly attempted this yesterday but was too dizzy.

Thought I was doing well till I realised, on the way home, that I was sans one umbrella. Oops. I had left the house with it. I had used it. I definitely had it in town because I got sworn at when it nearly took someone's eye out ("I'm sorry, but look where you're going, you stupid horse!" I thought, then wondered why on earth I had called her a horse of all things.) I only noticed that I'd lost it when I saw some for sale in a shop window. No, even the rain falling on my head wasn't a clue. Oh dear. Perhaps I better keep taking the bunged-up-head pills for a little longer.
