Domestic day

Today J and I got to pick out a sofa, a cooker and a fridge. This was a lot more fun than it might sound. These are the things that will start to process of us turning our (first) house into a home. My mum and dad came along for the ride today and we even managed to sit down for dinner at John Lewis (despite being the busiest time on the first day of half term). Every time I spend a day with my folks I learn something new and feel grateful for having them.

Back home now with a cold that has come complete with an annoying, irritating and wholly grating cough. Nothing sorts coughs out except time. I write and wait.

Cough.
