First Fix

 I was up at my usual time, and it wasn't long before I was enjoying a coffee and reading the news. Di followed me down after a while and, having made her a tea, I headed for the bathroom and made myself presentable for the day. We wandered around to Zoe's to take Ellie to school. As usual, it was all a bit chaotic, but we managed to get everything on track and dropped Ellie in class when the doors opened.

Di headed home before going to the Community Centre for her Cardiac Rehab. I set out on my customary walk with Jonathan Kellerman's novel unravelling in my ears. Once home, I started on breakfast as Diane arrived home. We sat and chatted and got on with some admin as the morning ticked by. I managed to add a number of novels to the spreadsheet, recording the books I have read. I have now managed to recall 752 books from over the years. I am certain there are many more, but until the relevant boxes in my mind spring open, they will remain a mystery.

I returned to the task of video editing. I have now completed "first fix" for the video recalling our cruise to Norway. There is still much to do, but the bones of the story are now in place. I still have to add "transitions" where appropriate, balance the sound, and add a background track with appropriate music.

During the afternoon, Diane took Zoe to the Doctor. She has been signed off for a further 2 weeks and has been referred for more X-Rays, MRIs and so forth. Clearly, this injury will not be quick to heal. While Di nd Zoe were at the doctor's, I collected Ellie from her after-school dance class. I got her home a few minutes after Di and Zoe got back. Zoe has arranged a lot of activities to keep Ellie busy over the weekend. We will, however, see them tomorrow when they come to dinner in the evening.
