Lily made it back from last night's excursion at a reasonable hour. True to form there had been a text asking to come home later but I'd not seen it so I side stepped that one. All the same, she didn't make it to school today. I'm an architectural designer with my own practice designing extensions and refurbishments but business is slow just now. I have one project on site, one just about to get planning permission and a few wallowing in the murky completion stage with a builder that has run into financial problems. I work on my own. My home office was taken over by Lucas last year when he was suddenly and unexpectedly sent home from his full time placement. A few weeks turned into 8 months and I now rent a desk in an office in town. I've always fitted by work round the family but just now I have even less of a routine than usual and responding to Lily's ebbs and flows is leaving me, well, at sea. Lily drifted around the kitchen this morning, clearly ...
This is my place for working out and reflecting on what on earth I'm doing to raise this complex, demanding, delightful and incredible teenager.
