emerg-NZ (american pronunciation)

last night z couldn't get to sleep, due to a mystery pain

111 advised us to see a doctor in canterbury A&E where we arrived at 12.10am this morning

bounced to ashford A&E because canterbury didn't have the paediatric doctor we'd need to see

after seeing a surgeon at 2.30am in ashford, got home and put z back to bed at 3.30am after some food and drink because he'd be 'nil-by-mouth' when he woke up again.

back to ashford for an ultrasound at midday and another evaluation

before being given an all clear: i.e. no-one knows what's causing this pain so we'll call it an 'undefined pain' and it will probably go away...if it doesn't come back and see us.

bit of a shit saturday, mainly spent in hospital or getting to and from it.

but very happy that there's nothing obviously wrong with the young man

i put a shit on you

as we were playing cards with the sons, in front of the fire tonight, a large burning ember spat out, off an old gate post, past the fire guard and onto the sofa that maximum was sitting on.

over the last 9 years, i have regularly left the fire burning, safe in the knowledge that the fireguard would catch anything and i wouldn't burn down our 366yr old house.

this happening while we were there is more than fortunate

for a shitty saturday, i'm feeling very f***ing lucky today.
