Still ill

Still very tired, though not in so much pain. My back seem to be recovering (touches wood). I have now seen all of Elizabeth R and indeed, it was as good as you all say.
Now I'm watching Shakespeare in love though, very distractedly, and sewing shifts for my big girls. All their medieval clothes were made two years ago and they're at least 5 inches taller now.
It fills me with such joy to think of how they have grown, both in body and in mind. It is good to be a parent. Lots of work and some worries, but good.
