Illness strikes again

We finally registered 'baby' last Friday on 2nd November.  She is:

Charlotte Madeleine Mary

But she's not well!!  She's had a cold/cough for a week, and it has been getting worse, quite scary when she is having a kind of coughing 'fit' and can't get her breath.  Finally got her through traige today, and the doctor has prescribed an inhaler, so hopefully that should get her on the road to recovery.

Oven is on for the Bonfire Night jacket potatoes, I've just planted (finally at long last) the Devon primroses (one outside the utility window, one on the left hand side of the garden) and two roses from the front of the old house (one in the 'secret garden' and one on the right hand side near to another rose bush).  The 'blue oiseau' and the grapevine were planted a week or so ago.  The garden is huge, and there is a composting arrangement at the bottom which I have since found out is a '3 bin system' which I'm now researching how to use.  I've also been looking up decorating ideas, antique furniture, clothes for me, just won a pair of Startright boots for Elizabeth on Ebay today... in amongst googling Croup and Whooping cough...

Exhausted doesn't even cover it!!
