• list

  • Brownies Accounts
  • Japan Pictures into report
  • Finish wedding bags One is done, the second will be done before bedtime (it’s 11pm).
  • Tidy flat  I appear to be at that point where it’s worse
  • Launder towels (the rest can wait until it’s a full enough load)
  • Buy salad
  • Collect bedspread So, if I provide my phone number they can’t find it.  Locate the receipt, and, lo and behold, they can find it.  What is the point of taking my phone number in case of receipt loss then?  Numpties.
  • Pay Barclaycard bill
  • Go to Eff for supper
  • Finish hat (the pattern as written is, I swear, wrong)   FROGGED IT!
  • Find out if I can drop round to Em Didn’t manage it: she went out!
  • Try to find mobile hairdresser (found two!)
  • Acquire plant pots for tomato seedlings and sweet peas
  • Sow sweet peas The tomatoes are still a bit small for planting out.
  • Write Chapters 1 & 2 off to editor again.  They bear no relationship to their original versions.  This is so cool.
  • Lily of the Valley bouquet. Need to actually phone Florists Bouquet sans LoV (not for another fortnight apparently, so hope he holds on) sent yesterday.

   

  Great Uncle Dick is in palliative care now (has been for over a week): and we’ve left it too late to go and visit one last time.  He simply isn’t up to it.  Have asked Cousin John what his favourite flowers are, and if he can buy a bunch on  my behalf if he’s allowed flowers.  I guess that, if you can’t really see or do anything, well, you can still smell them and that might make you remember something nice?

  Who can say.  Personally, I like daffodils, freesias, bluebells: all those spring flowers.  I don’t know what Uncle Dick (aged about 93 now) likes.  Much of the same, I’d hope.

  I really ought to hang out the washing.

  The Japan trip – well, it’s up now!  Hurrah!  Finally!  Much guilt, particularly when I see that the other girl from my region has her report on the website.  Oh well.  Stuff has been going on in my life.  The version that’s gone to region is looking prettier with pictures, but I’m a bit pressed for time, and, really, I’d rather you saw it sans pictures than Not At All.

  Also, I have three tiny tomato plants, one tiny pepper plant, the rocket seeds all appear to have sprouted, the chives are sprouting and the basil is going nicely.  I shall be well fed, I hope.  I’ve also found the big pot for the sweet peas, so I can sow them tomorrow morning.

  I am beginning to wonder if my phone is entirely dysfunctional… or whether people are just ignoring me.

  Phone was being dysfunctional.  Am not ignored.  Yay!
