Just popping in very briefly to say hello [waves]. Taking a short break from unpacking boxes to sit in the autumn breeze with a latte and a teething baby (maybe, maybe not, maybe he’ll never get teeth…) and use the wifi. (Still no telephone or internet at home – aaaaargh!)

It’s been a little chaotic, what with the move, a brief trip to hospital for Little O (suspected concussion after a fall – I’ve never been so frightened for him – more on this later, when there is more time), a new förskola for Little O (all going so, so well – we love the new preschool) and unpacking and trying to organise some kind of life with the boys both sleeping in the kitchen room, no fridge, no oven etc etc. but we’re in the new place and it is all going to be wonderful when it is finished.

It seems to be autumn here now, so I am desperately hunting through the 98 boxes that we packed, trying to find the warmer clothes for the boys that I didn’t expect to need for another month or so. But the leaves are starting to turn and to fall and the city looks lovely in this light, and occasionally the sun peeps through (like now) and I am reminded how much I like the autumn once I have adjusted to the temperature change.

Is it autumn yet with you?
