“It’s been a quiet week in Carlisle”, to paraphrase Garrison
Keillor.
As Nerea’s in Spain and Andy’s working in Lincolnshire, for
the first time in several years, I’m “home alone”, dog and cats excepted, for a
comparatively lengthy period. Believe it
or not, I’m actually quite a shy person and enjoy my own company so the thought
of several evenings alone after a hard day in the office hasn’t been too
daunting. I’ve disciplined myself to ignore
the temptation of a good book and chocolates and continue with the loathed
decorating chores. I’ve surprised myself
at how much I’ve achieved.
I love those Garrison Keiller stories, having heard them broadcast before I read them.
ReplyDeleteSurely you deserve a book/chocolate reward at the weekend after all that decorating!
Hi Christine
DeleteI'm having a night off as Andy will be home later.I can't wait to finish the stripping tomorrow!
Like you, I first heard Garrison Keillor on the radio many years ago and immediately identified with his stories. I still enjoy re-reading them!
I enjoy your bog too, although i don't post too often
