one sleepover down

I planted my seedlings in my neighbours green house and in return filled lots of wee pots with earth for their seedlings. After a cup of tea I helped plant lots of geraniums in the garden as Keith (who's 80) has a new knee and can't kneel down. He still chuckles a lot - but you don't need good muscles for that.
Stu and Coleen have asked us to keep an eye on the house and take in their daily paper for a couple of days.
Meg went on her sleepover.   Finn came home and said his was no longer on a sleepover, but an evening visit and Thomas would phone him with details. He waited in for as long as he could and then we gave up and went over to the school and played tennis and shot lots of hoops. He seems fine, but will be feeling pretty disappointed........  his mother feels it too.
Meg's friends mother is lovely and works in the primary school. she's going to ask if it's worth me speaking to them about some work there with the kids who have disabilities.
The light was beautiful tonight. Had some nostalgic feelings of childhood summers. It had that kind of smell. Yet to them, it's a changeable spring, and still quite cold.  To us, it seems pretty settled
Wish I was home for a while, more than anything, just to spend a little while with my Mum
