but, I feel considerably better than I did lying in bed this morning, not wanting to get up, and definitely not wanting to go to church and to the annual meeting.
So, I didn't.
Which didn't sit well with me for much of the morning.
However, I decided to go and get me a new cable for connecting my laptop to the router. The one I had still worked, but had a broken thingy, was slipping out really easily, and after a deeply frustrating time yesterday trying to watch an episode of Morse, ( getting adverts every time the cable slipped, the internet went down and ITVPlayer started again,) deemed a new one a necessity, not a luxury!
In wandering around the purveyor of electrical items, I chanced upon the music playing devices. Normally, since I'm still in the late 20th Century in such matters, I've not been investigating these items. At the moment moving into the 21st Century, musically speaking, is a far off dream, to be fulfilled after a number of other more essential dreams have been attended to. Anyway I can play CDs on the computer is what I have always reasoned.
But, a little CD playing machine, with FM/AM radio, and an iPod dock, was sitting looking lonely, with a 70% off price tag. Taking it to a very reasonable £19.99... After a little dithering, plus the realisation pay day was coming up, and I was, for once, still reasonably solvent at this end of the month, I succumbed. After, it had all I required, and more. I'm not bothered about DAB radio, I've had the use of one, and preferred the sound of FM. And, should my dream get fulfilled sooner, rather than later, I'm prepared!!
It is so nice to be playing my CDs again, and it has restored my soul more than I could have believed.
I will go to church this evening instead!
