9th January – A shadow

Day begins with the schlep to take herself to work.  Leave a little later today and it works out much better, would have been dead stressed of I’d have been at work today.

Car hoover arrives and set it charging.  Take the car for a bath, end up in Leigh and fill it up. Update spreadsheet.  Bit of shopping in Morrisons and grab a coffee.  Home and it’s time to clean the fridge out which is achieved, cooker cleaned and cat litter changed.  Hoover the car and jobs a good ‘un.  Decide I’d better do something with this year so new year, new learning.

  2. Photoshop

Much discussion around the notion of C’s retirement.  We find some sort of financial solution.  Not my best moment but C believes it so.  That in itself is rewarding.
