On my lonesome

I was all on my own at work today, until Nicola came in at about 9:00am. I could hear our lovely cleaner moving about, but this office is much more isolated than our old one, when people were always popping in and out.

I cleared a lot of emails and then tackled the moan report for March, just for the sites we were keeping. It took me a lot less time to do! At 2pm, I hurtled off home, said a quick hello to Keith and then went to see my Mum, taking some chocolates that I'd bought in France.

She seemed OK today, and we sat and looked at old photos on my phone until I left at about 4:00pm. While I'd been visiting Mum, the weather had changed, and a chilly wind was blowing. The sky turned dark, and I was convinced we'd have rain, but the clouds moved on. How different from yesterday! 

One of the photographs I'd looked at was a Martini glass, so I asked Sophie to make me one tonight. She used up the last of our Number 3 Gin, and the drink was just what I had fancied. I cooked dinner tonight, a very simple chicken and chipolata traybake with lots of vegetables and cous cous. Delicious!

After dinner, Keith and I watched the last episode of series 2 of The Capture. The third series is on now and finishes on Sunday. It's been very enjoyable!
