Good morning from Bristol. Of course, it’s still dark. I hope that the storm has passed without a trail of damage; it was extremely windy in the afternoon with very strong gusts. I was safe and warm indoors.
My “empty” was anything but. Yes, it was empty in that I saw no one and went nowhere, but the amount of stuff I needed to do “indoors”…. Usual laundry and so forth, but also loads of marmalade, etc.
I did source and try to buy a new ceramic hob, to replace my cracked one . I just couldn’t get to pay. In the end I telephoned a helpline, with a human, a very pleasant young man who navigated me through the hoops of modern technology. After about 30 minutes, I checked my bank account, but it hadn’t gone through. My phone went, and the young man was checking that the payment had been made - nope. We went through all the stuff again. Success? Not until it appeared on my account. Hurray, it did!
Very tired after my morning’s efforts, I did very little in the afternoon, even managing a short nap.
Today, I’m serving coffee in church using Wednesday’s baking.
I’ve got to finish the hospice bags and launch myself in the care leavers quilts.
May blue and bellas meeting go happily, hugs to both. I’m sorry that md is having such a rough time, but glad that she is finally taking a break. May all the others climbing mountains have an easy path down.
Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩
