Just Musing

Blake made it back from 10 days in Switzerland and Indonesia and Flynn stayed awake the whole day just to make sure he didn’t disappear again. I don’t know how he does it. He’s been feeding every hour and a half through the night. We think he’s going through a growth spurt. He’s a very alert baby and has a suck stronger than a spa outlet. He latches on to any available bicep and I’ve got the marks to prove it. I took advantage of a full house to take myself off on another voyage of discovery. This time I went browsed around the museum area and explored Raffles Hotel fairly thoroughly. Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer is very popular at the moment. I was forced to listen to a very strange rendition by an Indian busker with unusual timing on my way through an underpass. Later I was trying red bean soup (hot, sweet sort of like bean and barley porridge, but nicer than it sounds) and it was playing while the monsoon rains raged outside and I dripped with sweat and thought, it’s a strange old life.
