I wish that I wasn&#8217;t such a light sleeper.<\/p>\n<p>I could only manage a small breakfast too, and then I came down here for a morning of not very much at all. After all, it is my birthday. I just had a chat with a few people on the internet.<\/p>\n<p>Round about 11:00 I went up into town and the Delhaize for a walk but I wasn&#8217;t out long. It was fairly nice, if rather windy, up in town and it started to rain just as I arrived back here. I&#8217;d been lucky for once. And as it&#8217;s my birthday, I treated myself to a bag of Bombay Mix and a bottle of Dandelion and Burdock that I had bought from the English shop the other day.<\/p>\n<p>This afternoon, I had rather a health relapse and spent most of it fast asleep. I dunno why because it&#8217;s not as if I&#8217;ve been doing very much. A sign of the times, unfortunately.<\/p>\n<p>Tea was exciting. Now that we have some freezer space I had bought some frozen veg to replace the tinned stuff. And so tea tonight was curried mashed potato with frozen peas and carrots and a veggie burger. And absolutely delicious it was too, smothered in vegan margarine.<\/p>\n<p>And so now it&#8217;s beddie-byes time. Tomorrow I&#8217;m going to start packing and to empty my room here. If all goes to plan, I&#8217;ll be leaving here Tuesday so I need to organise myself<\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-7602 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='7602' data-nonce='77883b2e70' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Like' \/><span class='lc-7602 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-7602 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='7602' data-nonce='77883b2e70' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Unlike' \/><span class='unlc-7602 unlc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-7602 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; to me!
