23rd Jan S.  It looks sort of unpredictable weather outside. There is a thin streak of blue  sky with  large grey cloud near it.
Still I've had my breakfast and will get Vad up soon.
A mob of birds are chasing each other near the apple tree.
It is library day today. So at 9AM I am there. Hand in the old books . Get our five books for Vad to read.
Check them in at the counter and home I drive.
As so often happens Vad decided I needed to put something through the washing machine.
Today it is dusty curtains. They have been hanging there for ages. Well – will see how things go.
After washing  and then hanging one of them out to dry we have coffee.
My right sided gum is sore from eating some salami. It got stuck between two back teeth. And had to be poked out..
I had a comfy nap.
I fear it is drizzling a bit so I have to bring in the curtain and get it dried inside. Still it was about two thirds dry.
A well deserved nap.
Goodness my legs and arms are stiff and sore. As if I had walked up half a dozen staircases.
Second day DOMS I suppose.
Lunch was cheese on toast followed by ice cream. No effort you see. Vad has a compound sandwich.
The sun is out again ! So I put the second big curtain through the wash.
I throw out some old sausage rolls.
And Lo!-  there is grey cat eating one. If he eats  them- he must be hungry. He sort of looks gaunt.
So I open a tin of cat mince and put out that plus some Whiskas. He wades into this.
After Vad has her shower and hair wash (and brush - by me)  we have coffee and a biscuit. .
I bring in the curtain – near dry (It is windy) and then hang both of them up in the bedroom. I need my arms full stretch for this. Even then - the first time- it all fell down.
Vad made each of us an omlette. Mine had some garlic in it. Rather daring but not bad.
I felt stiff and sore for much of the day but in the evening I came good.
