The soundtrack of my life

It's be nearly a month and no posts.  As much as crying has become the soundtrack of my life (I have been assured that it will pass, although no-one can say when), no regrets.  The smiles are worth every howl.

Finally the sunshine arrived this weekend and my new sunglasses came into their own.  Sunglasses, along with a coat with a hood and big pockets are my must-have for new mums.  The coat to be thrown on at a moment's notice when there is no alternative but to escape out of the house, the hood to protect in all weather, and the big pockets to replace the handbag that I no longer have the hands to carry.

If we moved to Spain for the good weather then our plan backfired.  As the snow arrived in Barcelona on Monday, so too did the power cuts in the region where we live.  The lights flickered, the blow heater went silent and all was dark.  What I thought would last for just a few minutes went on for a day and a half so we decamped to the snow covered city to seek light and heat with Ivan's brother.  Costa Brava or Costa del Third World?
