Life as we know it

Spring has sprung complete with flowers that bloom, tra la, but nevertheless it's been a fairly full-on week. A week past Monday evening, I had to take Mr Life to Accident and Emergency because he wasn't well, so that wasn't good. We arrived at 8.15pm and I finally left at 3.15am, when they decided to keep him in to see a consultant in the morning - later in the morning. I then went back to collect him and he was released with pills and things. But it's all a bit sobering. 

On Saturday, Big Grandson and I went to Glasgow on a train to ride around on buses, which he considers fun. First we went to the Kelvingrove Art Gallery, where we had an early lunch and a bit of culture. 

He inspected these floating heads.

We enjoyed an organ recital. 

And then we got on and off a selection of buses for much of the afternoon. He's great company. 

When we got back to Waverley Station in Edinburgh there was a steam engine pulling old carriages where people were sitting at tables with frilly lamps and eating afternoon tea. So that was quite interesting too. We took photos for the grandfathers, both of whom like steam engines. 

So yes, good and bad. 

I got lovely Mother's Day flowers but now that they've faded, I've replaced them with a more modest bunch from the garden. 

And so life goes on.
