Life is proceeding in a familiar way, with odd jobs and little footling tasks intruding on real time (whatever that is!). Yesterday I decided to go out walking, despite the weather forecast being unfavourable. I ended up having an enjoyable time out, with the weather being not bad. I didn’t get rained on, and managed to pick off another of my unvisited Wainright Fells, Bonscale Pike. Not too strenuous really, and just great to get out in the open. Pictures are posted on my facebook pages. I have thirty-three Wainrights left to do, and I am going to make a big effort to do them this year. No, really. I have lots of paper administration jobs to to do at home, both personal and voluntary, and just now a neighbour has asked if I can prepare an activity report on the website I run for the walking club, for their AGM. I have ignored all these tasks to stop and write this. I suppose I could give everything up and lay on the sofa watching daytime TV. Not ready for that, at all! It is quite interesting how, since it has brightened up here, that my mood has improved. Also, Christmas has gone and won’t be back for ages! Now, shall I do the bank reconciliaiton, the payments for the Church accounting system, that report for the walking club, or prepare the other papers that HF Holidays have asked for? Both the cars are filthy as well, and it’s dry here. Should I wash at least one of those? I also need to make time to write something creative, the course starts again next week. I’ve finished reading “One Day”, which I was very impressed by, and have nearly finished the next Ian Rankin “Hide and Seek”. I think after that it will be “Bel Canto” by Ann Patchett. Onwards….
