19 May 2010

I was coordinator for TMG and had decided to use the jidokan in Meguro as the venue, the first time it had been used for the group. In the end it was a good turnout, but I didn't actually do much as Emily would not go indoors to the playroom where most of the mums and babies were, preferring to play outside with the trikes and just generally picking up sticks and leaves. Bettina and Tim came along and it was our first get together for about four weeks. They had been holidaying in Thailand and had actually been staying at the embassy in Bangkok with Sam and Mario when all the recent trouble was at its height, nearly being shut in just when their flight was due to leave. Something to drop into conversation at dinner parties, I suppose!


At bedtime, Emily brought up an issue I had hoped wasn't troubling her. She has had a small wart on her forefinger for some time and said right out of the blue 'someone has put a button on my finger. I can't get it off'. I know it isn't a big deal, but it has clearly been bothering her and I feel really bad about it though it's not my fault.
