Slightly manic mummy

and very cool James.

James "volunteered" to pose for me this evening. Reluctantly at first, but then he dashed off for five minutes, came back with hat, changed into shirt, waistcoat, jeans and his favourite red converse boots (that he still can't tie the shoelaces on!) and with two guitars and an amp in tow. "I'm ready!"

He then went on to play and pose for a good ten minutes giving me an opportunity to play around with the lights and different angles for shots. This is what I need - time to practise and learn.

I feel closer to normal today, having caught up on things that are seemingly unimportant but actually drive me bonkers if they aren't done - washing, cleaning, shopping, cleaning my car. I also managed to go back to my goth girlhair colour which has made me feel much, much better!

Now, sort the laundry, pour a brandy and get ready for the last 5 days of term. What they will bring, who knows, but it won't be as bad as last week i hope.
