… I call a bad day
Despite what I might have said yesterday, it wasn’t an early night. I wasn’t tired at all and so it was rather later than I was hoping when I went to bed.
During the night I’d been on my travels – something to do with being on a train but I’ve no idea about any more than that. But when the alarm went off, I just couldn’t bring myself to leave my bed. In fact, it was at 09:15 when I finally emerged, and that was a really bad start for the day.
Much to my surprise, I’d had a reply from an enquiry that I sent out in early October. Not exactly the response for which I was hoping, but it’s a start. And so after breakfast I set to work.
There was an interruption at 10:45 when the postie turned up. Now I have a keyboard that works quite nicely, and also my new 60-litre rucksack.
Regular readers of this rubbish will recall that I bought a cheap rucksack from NOZ a while ago and I’ve been going back and to to Leuven with that – and it works just fine. But the quality was pretty rubbish and it wasn’t lasting the pace. So I’ve bought one that’s much better quality and I’ll be giving it a go with that.
For lunch I had the rest of the squash and potato soup. And it was even more delicious today than it was yesterday.
Now I would have expected that with having had an unexpected lie-in this morning I would have been fighting-fit and raring to go in the afternoon. But instead I ended up crashing out.
And good and proper too – right away with the fairies until 16;45 too. And by the time that I had my feet on the ground it was far too late to go for my afternoon walk.
I’m starting to worry about things like this. It’s not doing me any good at all.
Tea was the rest of Liz’s vegan chili and it was even better than Saturday night. I’m really being looked after just now.
I did however manage to make it out for my evening walk tonight. Just for a change, there were a couple of people out there tonight with me.
And not only that, our old friend Thora was tied up at her berth underneath the crane. She’s apparently come into harbour on this afternoon’s tide.
And I have to say that with the weather just now, it was another really good night.
So now let’s see what’s going to happen tonight. It might be an early night or it might not. It doesn’t seem to make any difference.
But now that I know what I need to be doing, I can get ready to send off another huge pile of letters. That should keep me out of mischief for a while.
