Creeping up

Young Trevor tries to kid us that he's still much younger than the rest of us. Maybe so, but age is certainly creeping up on him, as he celebrates another birthday. He has so much to learn!

We were up early for the Ellie drop-off. She had a sore throat overnight and was a little hoarse when she first arrived, but that seemed to clear up a bit before we took her to school. Zoe phoned the surgery and managed to get an appointment for mid-morning.

I started my pre-breakfast walk in blue skies, bright sunshine, and a very cold wind. By the time I was halfway around my usual route, the skies had darkened and it started to rain quite heavily. I diverted from the usual route and headed home.

After some breakfast, I updated the accounts and then returned to my little coding project. That consumed a couple of hours and left me with a logic conundrum that will take some thought. I headed out for another walk. This time it was bladder pressure that caused me to divert and head home for lunch.

The afternoon saw some Kindle time before we went to collect Ellie from school. Back home (and out of the cold wind) she settled down to prepare a poster about an active volcano of her choice. She chose Mt.Etna, so we spent some time looking for suitable information online and printing it. Now that she has the facts, she can spend tomorrow (after school) completing the poster.
