I was up at my usual time. It was decidedly grey this morning, and though the temperature was higher, the wind had changed direction, and it felt significantly colder than the last few days. Following our normal schedule, we walked around to Zoe's to collect Ellie for school. She was very subdued. She clearly has an allergy to cut grass, and her face has erupted in little sub-surface spots. It makes her feel a bit self-conscious.
After dropping her off in class and explaining what was going on to her teacher, Di headed home and set off for my walk. I had not dressed for the weather and felt quite chilly, but it did, however, encourage me to up my usual pace. When I arrived home, Di explained that she was going to take Ellie (and Zoe) to the doctor to have Ellie's allergy checked. I stayed put, had my breakfast, and got on with several domestic chores.
Back from the doctor's, Di confirmed our diagnosis that it was an allergy to cut grass. An increased dose of her hay fever medicine has been recommended. I hope it works, as I well know how miserable hay fever can make you feel.
After lunch, we had some Kindle time until it was school pickup time. Today we had the opportunity to go into class to see the work the children have been doing in school. I went through Ellie's Geometry, Maths, and English workbooks. She is doing really well.
By late afternoon, rain set in. It hadn't been scheduled until 21:00, but decided to arrive several hours early. Rude!
