Bitten and bruised

Last weekend I had to go to A&E as insect bite on ankle had caused swelling which antihistamine tablets were failing to have any effect on. Ended up on strong antibiotics and missing 2 days of work. Spent 22nd wedding anniversary feeling sorry for myself whilst husband swore at PC, I am officially a WOW-widow.
Yesterday was Kieran's 18th, he is on threshold of life but unaware of it. I was going to buy him some jewellery but skull and crossbones pendant he choose wasn't my idea of a coming-of-age gift.
Jobwise nothing interesting is happening and I am still frustrated as applications fail to produce results. I keep asking myself what I really want but reply is that it's not working in area I am currently employed in! What I really need is holiday away from here, with boys of course.
