Child in upper bunk with projected stars. Today was hard. Going to Leith and back to get vaccinated somehow took 3½ hours, and then in the afternoon I took Sophia to her flu vaccination too. And then she came home with me and wanted to help. And was actually able to help more than I expected once I started giving her tasks. The bed isn't quite finished, but enough for her to sleep in it tonight. And tomorrow we can start teaching Gideon that the bottom bunk is going to be his bed...

I expect that she'll be very happy up there. (-:

I get it!

Going to Brum yesterday and never actually getting all the way to where I was going took me four plus hours.

It should take one and a half.........

Good Lord! Mine was because half the route there is being dug up for tram works - what's happening to Birmingham?

[cmcmck]

More than one train line completely screwed up due to signalling and train breakdown issues and the trams on strike!

When I was about 9 or 10 I shared a bunk bed with my younger sister, and I was very happy to have the top bunk. In my 20s and 30s I remember doing it occasionally on holidays. Now that I am old the idea of hopping up to the top bunk appears unattractive, especially with my habits of insomnia. I think it's my mind that has got inflexible, rather than my body.

It's not as comfortable getting up to the top, even with it being steps rather than a ladder. And she's closer to the roof than is entirely comfortable. But she's still looking forward to sharing with her brother.
