Conehead & the alien 'Splot'

I watched the last episode of Vampire Diaries last night, such a good program not sure what I will watch now - oh yeah daily fillings of BB of course! I figure I had about 3 hours sleep on and off last night. I slept downstairs on the sofa as Peps was not too chirpy after her operation. She hadn't been to the toilet and she was whimpering (I couldn't give her any pain relief until this morning) so I thought I hadn't better leave her. I had to sleep with one ear open in case I heard her licking her wounds. N was having a sleepover at a friends, so at least I didn't have to worry about her.

I had to wait until I collected N this morning before I could put the cone on Peps, I tried on my own its impossible. Here she is - you can just about see the stitches on her tum. She is actually being a really good girl with it, only getting frustrated now and again when she can't scratch her ears!

I finally managed to get N to watch Finding Nemo this afternoon, after years of being terrified of it. She really enjoyed it and so did I although not sure how I kept my eyes open - in fact no I am sure I did close them every now and then! Well I have to try and catch up on my sleep sometime.

When N said this afternoon "mummy I want to do sewing now" inside i squirmed. Sewing can cause an argument in this house on the best of days, basically because neither of us know what we are doing and we get annoyed about it. I was thinking please, no, neither of us has had much sleep this will end in disaster. Thankfully N didn't want to make a complicated piece of clothing, she was satisfied with a felt alien - which she named splot. disaster averted.
