Ton up

As Ellie stayed overnight, there was no need to get up early. She had set her alarm for seven, but I was making my coffee by the time that went off. She reset the alarm for 7:20 and went back to sleep. It was a bit cooler this morning. Only by a degree or so, but the damp atmosphere made it seem chilly. We dropped Ellie at school, and I set off for my walk.

I arrived home an hour or so later. I checked my watch and found that I had broken the 100 mile mark for the month. Feeling chuffed, I sat down with my breakfast.  Di had a call with her friend Marilyn, so while she chatted on the phone, I started on my second pass through last year's journal. I managed to review the first six months before I started to go boss-eyed.

There were several minor domestic chores to fill the rest of the morning, and after lunch, we settled down for some Kindle time until we had to collect Ellie. We took her straight home to Zoe, who was waiting to whisk her off to Chichester for her appointment.

It was a very quiet day.
