Winding down...
Proof positive that I'm stark staring bonkers... Shot up in bed this morning, and informed dh- 'Who needs an alarm clock? I'm better than any alarm clock...'
Dh duly staggered out of bed to squint at the clock, unfortunately positioned at the opposite end of the bedroom (not that far away- just too far when you need a telescope to see anything these days!)
'It's three o' clock in the morning,' he roared.
Yes, he can roar- even half-asleep (he's an alpha male, remember?)
Well, I never said my internal alarm clock was accurate, did I?
Anyway, the day got better after that... started my new book with a dramatic first scene, and then slapped on some slap and some decent clothes- rather than the disreputable tracky bots, and sloppy stretched faded top I normally wear for writing, and headed out to the furthest reaches of my county to meet with Steam Clean Val' and our pal, Brenda. Hi gals!!
Had a great time shooting the breeze at a new eaterie... and then we visited Brenda's new and rather splendid home complete with pond,moorhens and ducks, before I shot back chez moi to touch base via e-mail with all my pals in Oz.
Boy, do I want to be there with you for conference next year, girls...
Have a great weekend everyone!!
Love to you all, and happy reading!
