I think my headache is feeling a bit better today. Managed to get some housework done, and Mary came mid morning to help me fill out some forms, then we went out to lunch at the popular restaurant/deli.
I intended going water walking this evening but was diverted. I stopped off at the church to pick up the flowers to take to the hospital in the morning, bumped into the person helping our mutual friend move from the nursing home to her new flat on Wednesday, and she asked me for the key of the new flat so the helpers can - hopefully - have the furniture in before she gets there. So I went off to the nursing home instead of the pool.
I don't know if I mentioned it but the clocks changed last weekend, and I hate it so much, I hate it being totally dark at 6 o'clock. If Arizona and Hawaii can get by without ever changing their clocks I don't know why the other states have to. I never understood it in England, and I don't here.
My electric kettle is supposed to turn itself off, and it didn't, and burned itself out. SIGH. I had to go to Walmart for a new one. At first I couldn't find one at all. Just lots and lots of coffee makers in all shapes and sizes. I even had the wild thought that I might stop drinking tea, and just drink coffee instead. Then I spotted one, it was programmable - who needs a programmable kettle for crying out loud!!!!!!!! - it did all sorts of things and cost nearly $40. But I am technologically challenged, life in the 21st century is struggle enough, the last thing I need is a high tech kettle. Then as I am staring at it in despair, I spot another one lurking at the back of the bottom shelf. A straightforward one for $12.94, that I just fill up and turn on.
I don't seem to have done much today, and I am conscious this probably isn't very interesting but at least it lets you know I haven't dropped off the radar.
