Buzzing

 I feel as if I have been buzzing around today. By most people's standards, I have done very little, but as an idle retiree, it seemed busy.

I started with the traditional walk to Zoe's so that I could escort Ellie to school and then headed home for breakfast and a second coffee. As the caffeine coursed through my veins I moved the furniture into the Orangery and vacuumed all of the hard floors downstairs before steam cleaning them. Then there was a quick update to the accounting spreadsheet before I headed out for a walk. The walk was bisected by a stop at the barber's shop for a hunt and cull mission on my head. Finally, it was the walk home, a spot of lunch and then some quiet time with the Kindle.

I picked Ellie up from school but no sooner were we back than Darren messaged me to say he was home and could collect her. As they are currently looking after a little dog, Ellie was eager to get back. Once she had left we returned to our Kindles until dinner.
