Wednesday

 Good morning.
The weather has cleared up somewhat after yesterday's downpour.  It rained pretty much all day, sometimes a bit heavy and sometimes just a light splattering of drops but it was continuous and just perfect for garden and allotment.  It means I really won't need to water for a few days, just harvest, and it will make any weeding so much easier.

As mentioned yesterday, Jeff cancelled (I would have cancelled him, had he not got in first) so my first thing of the day was my drive over to Val's.  I had a really pleasant time there, catching up on loads of news about mutual friends and acquaintances.  Val was the very first person to welcome me into my home when I moved and has been a steady friend and support ever since.  When she and Mike moved away to be closer to her daughter, I didn't see her for a while but then we started meeting up again.  They live around twenty minutes to half an hour's drive away depending on traffic, so that's really not so bad.

The other thing was the missed tuition and that was fine.  Both student and mum laughed at and with me and there were no 'recriminations'.

Today, I am just waiting for Jeff to arrive and then the day starts.  Later on, I have personal training with Lindsey (MUST remember to pay for the next block of sessions) and then the day's my own.  I'll go and pick at the allotment at some point and I guess it will be wellies on for the first time in months and months because everything is very wet.

Well, Jeff can't be ;long so I will get the kettle on for his cuppa and my first coffee of the day.  Have a good one, everyone.  xx
