When I told you that I was going shopping today?<\/p>\n<p>So there I was checking the date this morning (I take certain pills on odd-numbered days and certain others on even-numbered days) and it was then that I noticed  &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Yes, 14th July. Quatorze Juillet &#8211; la F\u00eate de la Bastille. The anniversary of when the Paris communards stormed the Bastille and released all of 14 prisoners. <\/p>\n<p>And, of course, it&#8217;s a national holiday, isn&#8217;t it? And I didn&#8217;t have much food in the house either.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d had a bad night too &#8211; I&#8217;m not even sure if I slept at all. And I was up and about long before 07:00 too. But the Bank Holiday threw me out of my stride.<\/p>\n<p>And so I&#8217;ve not done as much as I might otherwise have done. I&#8217;ve been spending some time socialising on the internet (something that I decided that I would dramatically cut down on) and also sorting out a huge pile of photos from 2007 that I discovered.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/lesguis.com\/images\/foto2007\/0707203.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/lesguis.com\/images\/foto2007\/0707203.jpg\" alt=\"clairvoyant by appointment chatelguyon puy de dome france\" width=\"300\" height=\"204\"\/><\/a>Including this absolute gem from Chatelguyon in July 2007.<\/p>\n<p>I mean, what kind of clairvoyant is this? Visits by appointment only?<\/p>\n<p>If she were any good as a clairvoyant you wouldn&#8217;t need an appointment because she would know that you were coming, surely!<br clear=\"both\"><\/p>\n<p>However, I did do some work on the blog upgrade. Not as much as I would like, of course, but then that&#8217;s always been the story of my life. And for much of the morning I was <a href=\"https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/?p=1280\">working on this page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This was another one that started off as a mere 100 or so words as a placeholder, but now it runs to well over 1200 words and a pile of photographs too. <\/p>\n<p>I had to do without a tomato at lunchtime (I had some vegan cheese instead &#8211; luckily I still have some left) and tonight we had mash and rozen vegeables (all cooked in the steamer) with a veggie burger and gravy, followed by one of my breakfast fruit pur\u00e9es.<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow I WILL have to go shopping but I&#8217;m not looking forward to that. The holiday season is well under way and the grockles will be out in force. <\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-9199 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='9199' data-nonce='7ca6fdc04d' 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-9199 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-9199 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='9199' data-nonce='7ca6fdc04d' 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-9199 unlc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-9199 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes, remember yesterday?
