SL Therapy

I still have a cold, and a really bad chest, but I've been back to work and seen some family. Alexia is sleeping better, which is very nice, and she's been really cute lately. She's been singing random songs at pretty random times and potty training her teddies! She's as crazy as her mother, that kid!

For the rest of life's tribulations I've invested in some Second Life Therapy. Not literally, although you can apparently buy therapy sessions in SL, which is an odd concept to me. No, I've just been playing it a bit which means I get an hour or two where I'm thinking in a completely different character in a completely different world. It works too, I feel really relaxed while I'm playing and a bit saner when I stop.

Here's the latest picture of SL me.

Lets Play Catch-Up...

Well, where to begin. There's been some family shit going down, I won't go into it, but it was shockingly unpleasant. Then on Friday whilst full of cold, and against all odds including weather and babysitter issues, me and Mr Wonderful went to Leeds to celebrate our four year engagement anniversary. We did some Mother's Day shopping, went to see Cloverfield at the Vue Cinema (which was amazing!), and went for a meal at Wagamamas (Which is Japanese, delicious and not very expensive). There was horrible wind and rain all afternoon and basically until we'd gone home, which wasn't good considering how ill I felt. Yesterday I rang in sick for the first time in ages and today I was sent home from work even though it was really busy.

I think my cold is now an inner ear infection and is sending me seriously off balance, so maybe that needs attention.

Alexia slept at my Mum's on Friday. She had a good time and it seemed like she hadn't missed us, until she got home and then she seemed really glad to be back. She gave me a big cuddle and we had a long, deep and meaningful conversation about eyes, giraffes and doggies, among other things.

Last night at midnight I got a bottle of Baileys and a Mother's Day card that nearly made me cry!

And that's about it really.
