I had a more relaxed start to the day as Zoe was not due at work until 9:00. After the statutory coffees, I wandered to Zoe's and we walked Ellie to school. It was a gorgeous morning. The sun was bright (though low in the sky), and it was pleasantly mild. Leaving Ellie at the classroom door, I set off for my walk. It was so much nicer walking in the sunshine after the walk in yesterday's deluge. I followed my usual route and enjoyed another hour of my latest book.
Back home, Di was just leaving for her annual MOT at the doctor's. She wasn't gone long, as she had anticipated all of the questions she would be asked and went armed with a sheet of paper containing the answers.
We had an item of furniture delivered yesterday. It is a flatpack dressing table for Ellie for Christmas. I had to shift this into the garage so that she wouldn't see it after school. Fortunately, we bought a sackbarrow earlier in the year. This was the perfect solution to the problem of shifting this heavy container out of the hall and into the garage.
After lunch, we saw some Kindle time during which I finished one book and started another. I hadn't got too far into it before I had to collect Ellie from school. Though we had had some heavy rain at lunchtime, it had dried up and the sun was shining. This meant that we could stop at the park on the way back.
While I was preparing dinner, Ellie and Nana played with the "Magic" game that I had bought while on the cruise. She has already mastered a couple of the tricks, having practised them several times. Zoe came to collect Ellie soon after we finished dinner. She'll be back bright and early in the morning.
