And after last night, I&#8217;m hardly surprised.<\/p>\n<p>After I had posted yesterday&#8217;s entry, I switched the light on over the kitchen area and the bulb promptly blew out. One of the old incadescent ones that were in here when I moved in so it&#8217;s no big loss.<\/p>\n<p>And although it wasn&#8217;t as early a night as I would have liked, I was asleep pretty quickly, and away on my travels. I&#8217;m not sure what I had done but I had been sentenced to death by beheading. The Queen came to see my execution so I asked her if I could have a last request. She told me not to be silly, to stop wasting time and to get on with it so I laid my head on the block hoping that it wasn&#8217;t going to be too painful.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve done a little cleaning up today too. I&#8217;ve been too ill to do it this last couple of weeks but the place was in such a mess that I fetched out the vacuum cleaner and gave the place a quick once-over. And not before time either. When I can summon up more energy I&#8217;ll do some more.<\/p>\n<p>Tea was mashed potatoes, vegetables and a vegan burger with onion gravy. And delicious it was too. But for some reason the steamer tripped out the main fuse and I&#8217;ve no idea why.<\/p>\n<p>And for a change, I rotated my walks today. This afternoon I took my walk around the headland in the fresh air. And very pleasant it was. But it wore me out again and I was crashed out for a couple of hours when I came back. Definitely in a bad way. I felt absolutely dreadful when I awoke.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lesguis.com\/images\/1711\/1711029.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lesguis.com\/images\/1711\/1711029.jpg\" alt=\"place maurice marland granville manche normandy france\" width=\"300\" height=\"204\"\/><\/a>This evening I took the route around the walls in the dark. That was avery pleasant stroll too, especially in the new garden that they have created &#8211; the <em>Place Maurice Marland<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>He was someone in the French Resistance who lost his life at the hands of the Gestapo, and there&#8217;s a memorial in the gardens with the names of the other civilians of the area who similarly lost their lives.<\/p>\n<p>And on the way back I encountered a new friend &#8211; an old long-haired black cat. He and I had a very long chat and social interaction.<br clear=\"both\"><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll try now to have an early night and a good sleep. I really ought to start to feel better soon because in a couple of weeks I have to go back to Belgium and I can&#8217;t go feeling like this.<\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-9944 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='9944' data-nonce='361d76807a' 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-9944 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-9944 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='9944' data-nonce='361d76807a' 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-9944 unlc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-9944 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; such a good day today.
