Out, out!

Look, rhododendron!
Finally, it's really out!
Joy to come home to :-)

Busy busy.  Dropped Mr KCNQ2Haiku for the early train; morning routine; school run; dog walk; email I've been putting off about care provision; spoke to social worker; emailed school; prepped tea; walked dog (again); fetched Ben from school to go for tea at new respite place; cajoled him into the car to come home; walk dog(!); feed other teen; bath Ben; collapse!
Ben actually did really well at the respite place, he was a bit over hyped and kept asking for more juice but he helped prepare his dinner and ate nicely at the table, we had a little walk out and he tried out the trampoline and the bucket swing.  Altogether a success, even if I am a bit wiped by it all!
