After an earlier night an early morning to check messages and commence your January blog dear readers. There are indeed new messages, sent last night, and opened this morning. Elder daughter enquired about the source of interesting propaganda shared yesterday; Hexham Stand in the Park friend offers a visit; Utta, from Berlin, writes to reschedule her one week holiday at the end of January, to two weeks, arriving on April 9th at 10.30 p.m. Of course, the postponement was due to the games being played internationally as part of The Great Reset, but there's only so much individuals can do. Anyway, April is better for Utta's holiday, since the days are longer and the weather often balmy at that time.
Meanwhile, it's still dark outside as the morning blog begins, and as is known, the night may be o.k. for possibilities, but the hour before Dawn is when all is possible, including the proposed outing with Daisy and the friend from the village.
After breakfast it's still dark and the promised Sunny day turns out not just frosty but misty, which persists throughout the morning., leading to a decision to postpone the outing from morning to afternoon. As a light lunch is eaten, sure enough the Sun breaks through and Daisy and crew set off for the cashpoint outside the Co-op where the old blogger tops up the cash reserves with ten £20 notes. Objective one realised! From there we proceed to the Hardware Shop to drop the log bags accumulated over the recent period, which was objective two. Since Daisy had been promised a decent outing to exercise her, we observed brakes binding as a result of sitting round with the handbrake left on, so we sped out of the village in order to hold the foot on the footbrake and cure the binding. After less than an hour Daisy was home and the crew settled down indoors again, after an excellent outing ... the first since the diagnosis from the hospital of tiny blood clots in the lungs. Mission accomplished!
Now for the meal and after the violent DVD about Elizabeth, not this one but the first Queen of England, Wales, Ireland and France ... but not Scotland! That's history for you. In recent times they had a referendum and the Scots voted SNP, though it was close. England offered partial independence in return for an illusion of home rule and a possible second vote. Now then, the current monarch outlives the first Elizabeth, and Victoria, not mention George the third who outlived the first Elizabeth too.
After all the excitement and outings of Tuesday, what's happening tomorrow, Wednesday? It's unsure but something will occur for sure, somewhere or other, even if your old blogger isn't living to see it! Still that thought is morbid and optimism is the key to contentment and good health.
Good night!
