Jamming

I'm trying hard to stay calm about tomorrow's hospital appointment, but I now have some sort of inner ear infection and the room is spinning every time I stand up. I feel and look drunk. Also, some bad headaches. Jamie is taking the day off so I won't have to drive myself. But I hate him using up precious leave days from work just to accompany me.

Grace and Jack have both had colds, but are on the mend. Grace is starting to get into the swing of her new weekly routine with college and other commitments. Jack is working hard on studying for his exams in a few weeks.

I've been making lots of chutney, jam and jelly to pass the time and stop me from fretting these past two weeks. My family are enjoying the fuits of my labours though. Plum jam today! I just hope I don't topple over into my preserving pan with this vertigo! What a way to go that would be. 'Oxfordshire Woman Drowns In Plum Jam'
