March madness

I write this today through a haze of lost sleep, so it'll be tough task for me to notice any spelling errors! See, I already caught myself out 4 times already in the space of 2 sentences! It's not good!

Anyhoo, we travelled to Scotland this weekend just past to attend my brother's birthday party. I can't believe I'm old enough to have a brother at 40 - that means I'm next!

So, an uneventful journey was followed by a pretty eventful Saturday. My poor sister-in-law was getting pretty stressed about it and had put in a heck of a lot of work, and just as we were all thinking of getting organised, she had to be taken to hospital with a potentially very serious problem, which looks as though it was sorted in time, thank goodness!

So, we were all at the party and a good number of people turned out. News filtered through about my sister-in-law and it did put a bit of a dampner on it because naturally, our thoughts were with her, hoping that she'd be ok. That meant it took a while to kick into gear, but when it did, it did! It's been a long time since I've had that much fun at a party and what was really nice was that the hubby really let go and had a blast! He surprised everyone there 'cos they've never seen that exuberant side to him. He was FUNNY!

A couple of days later, we're home, even more broke than before and shattered, but we had a great time! Just what I needed to take my mind off March.
