It's freezing! Going out for a lovely meal warmed me up nicely (thanks Dad) but standing in the cold looking for Dad's keys put paid to that once we got home. Brrrrrrr. Will it snow, I wonder?
A bit of a sad day today as a phone call came to say of a death in the family, my much-loved uncle. Only one aunt and one uncle left now. The sadness at the moment is slightly overridden, however, by the inconvenience - we will somehow need to get my Dad northwards for the funeral, just at the time when my sister who lives there is actually coming down to stay with us, especially to see my Dad!!! Nothing is ever simple. Just waiting for the phonecall to say when.
Phoned my friend and left an answerphone message humbly and profusely apologising on bended knee for missing her birthday on Monday. Received an answerphone message in return saying she's turned Muslim and believes in atonement rather than forgiveness. Hmmmm....... !
Major achievement of the Day :Just arranged the date for the Smudgelet's baptism / adoption party. This is only a year late, which is quite good going really. Now I just have to hope the Godparents can make it!
Cause for celebration: Yesterday I had the first day since August when it has not felt as though I had glandular fever. Today's going pretty well too.
