Sunday 30th DecemberSo this morning was a very slow morning and it was partly due to waking up at silly o'clock. I decided to read and finished my latest Scarpetta and I found it disappointing. Why do some writers go into such detail as if they are trying to either tell me what they know or what they have managed to research. I would buy a technical manual or internet it if I really wanted to know....grrrrr. Weather this morning is cold, cloudy, damp, but dry when my neighbour came with three pancake thingies her little face was frozen and she had a warm from the fire before she set sail to her house. Still in my PJ's at ten when she arrived but I'd managed to strip the beds and had two loads of washing drying. What I love about my washing machine is that it has a thirty five minute programme and a 1200 spin so no dripping stuff around...straight up to the upstairs bathroom. The 'nest' was demolished, everything washed and all ready for the Librarian for the new year. I've even made another fleece quilt so that there is no danger of me freezing when I take to the upstairs bedroom while she can be down. Looked down the garden and realised that the fence was leaning inwards so now supports put in place with thumping great nails.....I still want to maintain a bovine free zone Came back indoors and finished the gloves and stitched them up and will deliver them tomorrow when I'm in Djebel. Just got a little shopping to do ...top up on wine to see the new year in tomorrow. Lovely surprise this morning...a 'holiday' gift from 'baa Humbug' since he doesn't believe in that word that I can't possibly use in the same sentence. I shall probably invest in a ton of 20p books from that well known supplier. Sorry about the weather Tabs....we seem to have little control over it but it's so much better when it's completely wintery.....LN....I'm back to the fire....LN
