Despite the cold I have been fighting, I slept really well last night. I was even able to have a lie-in, not rising until 6:45. I was feeling better than yesterday, but decided to forego my morning walk. We did, however, walk to Zooe's to collect Ellie and take her to school. Zoe is actually going to try to do a few hours of work in the store today. Let's hope she doesn't overdo it.
During the morning, Di took Jasper to the vet. She was gone for longer than usual. Apparently, it was very busy after the Bank Holiday. I got on with some domestic chores, then settled down with the accounts. I was pleased that our energy provider has reduced our monthly direct debit by £40. The only "unknown" is the charge from "Muddy Boots", who sorted out the irrigation last week. I'm sure they'll make contact in the next day or so.
We had a few things to sort out after lunch, so we didn't manage any Kindle time.
We've just finished a very disappointing dinner of pork loin steaks and salad. The salad was fine - even I can't mess that up - but the pork loin steak was like a chunk of old leather. It's a shame, because I have a crib sheet that tells me the ideal time and temperature for these steaks, and this is the first time it has been proven inadequate.
