1. Exhausted having nothing to do except sleep, read, swim, walk the floor. How on earth could I survive two weeks on this regime. It is of course a help to offer words of wisdom and take the lad when he is fractious. Life as a nun in a closed order would never do for me. I need to be out and about.
2. Hurrah the maid is off today, I have some more jobs to do. Shopping and cooking for the week=end. Requests for dishes I have never cooked before. Looking for the implements was a challenge. No scales all done by guess work. Phew Cheesy biscuits with herby filling, carrot gnocci all turned out OK.
3. Grandma is off duty now having been cooking since three, it now being eight. Bath time can be accomplished by the parents tonight.
4. Kaaren was supposed to go to her course today, but all was not well with the parents, so it might be tomorrow. It might mean I have a day off.
5. The book was not a novel - it was the reporter from the Washington Post recording some of the interviews with human rights' activists. A good insight into the happenings within the communist state.
6. Glad to hear Ashley is in good form. I thought he had accepted the post in Brighton. Now I am confused.
7. We drove to the epicentre for the shopping today and one can tell the American influence on the gated community. Every other tree had some hallow;en character on them. Ghosts, witches etc. and we are still not half way through the month.
8. I am still wondering how those who do not work entertain themselves around here. Are there bridge clubs or other clubs. Definitely no cycling club as I have seen.
9. Keep me posted from the metropolis of East Grinstead. There must be more going on there.
10. Should not be unkind to the new parents, they are feeling their way.
11. I shall have to send you Sam's email with the list of jobs, cannot give a real digest.
Enjoy the bike ride tomorrow and keep me amused with the news. Even watched Midsomer Murders, one of Kaaren's favourites.
The lady who goes from here to there
