Quiet indoor time.....





We are having some quiet times at home....Measles has been going around for the last 4 weeks, and it has arrived at our house! We have many friends who have been through it with there children the last few weeks...so we are armed with info for a successful recovery.

Lots of Vitamin A, which is anything orange, plenty of fluids, especially lemon water and borage herbal teas...plenty of rest and a darkened room. It is a long illness, with cold symptons for 3-4 days, then a high fever for a few days, then spots covering the body for 4 days, and 3-4 days of recovery.....So will be laying low for a few weeks, as Ruben will get it as well....Apparently if your child is going to get measles, before 10 is good!

Went to the market and stocked up on fruit and veg, fresh juices. The weather has also changed, with showers, and fog up here on the hill. Fog and mist are wonderful if you are up high, it makes you feel like you are on top of the world!!

Sam and Ruben had there haircuts today, and the man of the house did a wonderful job!!
