Not chicken pox ? measles!

Today awoken by phone call from Layla to say Bella did not have chicken pox as the spots of yesterday had not'poxed'. However though vaccinated against measles, she was covered in a rash with other signs and symptoms of measles, so they were told to go and see the GP weekend cover at the Western General Hospital, even though if it is measles it is highly infectious! The Dr there was very kind and took a couple of swabs which will say if it is measles or not, he thought it might be! Bella is obviously feeling a bit under the weather but is still very perky, chatting and playing. As Joe and Layla had an invitation to a John Lewis sponsered Christmas recital with a reception afterwards and Bella was fine with Graham and moi we babysat so they could go. We went over to theirs, Joe looking smart and Layla glam in their gladrags off they went Bella waving a big bye, bye. We had spinach and cheese sauce with pasta for dinner it was delicious. Then Bella watched her favorite 'Miffy' with Grandpa and we danced to the vinyl, then upstairs with Graham, teeth cleaned big kisses, two stories then bed. I had to sing theis song that graham sings to her and soon she was in dreamland. Do hope her itch disappears soon.
Cooked a fry up for breakfast, had a shower and washed my hair then took Ruaridh for a walk to the park and Ravelston woods he had a good run and played with a Springer spaniel for a wee while.
Made bread and soda bread did some ironing, as we are heading to the Glen tomorrow. Bed now. Bye.
