The snow came and I couldn't quite believe it. Murron's school was closed because the power was out and there was no heating. Luckily we had heating here, so after an awful drive to Haddington to have some more blood taken and pick up extra thyroxin, we cosied up inside and made some chocolate cookies. Murron declared they were the best ever and went to bed this evening with the remains of a chocolate moustache from snaffling the chocolate destined for the cookies. Sam and Rowan's Spring (if only) concert was cancelled so we stoked up the wood burner and just let the evening unfold. I am embarrassed to admit that I also have the electric blanket warming up my bed - with my thyroid all over the place it's a necessity if I'm to stay warm - but it does make me feel old...

Thank you all for your lovely comments today/yesterday on my 1095th blip. As ever I posted late and didn't realise the significance - it was a lovely surprise :)
