The return of Fireball

Kirri had a brief break with some friends in MK today. Matti came back with me then we collected Kirri again and they came back to stay until Thursday evening. Kirri really needed to get away and I'd wanted him on his own but N had insisted that Matti come too. When I went to collect them N was there and came out to talk about them coming. Bryony clung on to me even though I had a cigarette burning so I could tell how much in need of some love and affection she must have been. N was moaning about Kirri's behaviour and what he needed to learn and I must have looked pretty vacant and felt pathetic as I was quite unable to say anything for fear of treading on the thin ice and disappearing in a rage of abuse. One misinterpreted phrase or word and I could see the tentative peace would fail so I blurted out something meaningless.

I so very nearly said about Buckingham plans but just held back. Bryony had also been send me messages all morning about how unfair everything seems and I worry about her too. She seems OK but it is all having an impact and, whilst I don't pay to much attention to the 'I'm bored' type of remark, I do know that she isn't at all happy and even realises now how badly N is to Kirri and how she has to be much more careful in what she says.

On Sunday Kirri and I had searched high and low in tescos for what he's written down as Lady's Raisins. I remember Bryony having some small packets with a lady's head on them and reckoned that must be what she wanted. Bought them and then, today, it turns out that it was ladys' razors she'd wanted!! It was quite funny and, although N was moaning about why I had spent £2.99 on the raisins, even she couldn't really carry on shouting after that.

I also brought back yet more boxes from the seemingly never-ending pile in the garage.

Collected Kirri early evening and we had a good time. The two of them rediscovered Toontown! I was impressed as Matti raced around doing what Kirri used to do to try and get computers set up with the game and logged in. Kirri also managed to find, with some ingenious guessswork, his 'Fireball' account which had been highly successful in the past and he was delighted at his efforts.

I did virtually nothing today. Never mind.
