I can't write a post today
because:
1.
I am tired.
It's exhausting being
a prizewinning baker.
2.
I had to go to the pub
because the Masters students
have just finished their course.
And drink.
3.
Then I had to go out
for a Chinese meal
because MasterW is staying.
And eat.
4.
I'm going out tomorrow
for smart tea with @DrHG
and the Young Academics x 2
I will eat and drink.
I must be ready.
5.
I am missing Jenny
who is at the annual
Society of Cartographers conference.
6.
My hands are sore because
I had an unexpected visit from a
Petit Basset Griffon Vendéen puppy.
I got chewed.
7.
My shoulders are sore from
contorting into strange shapes
to disguise the fact
I spilt coffee on my white shirt.
8.
I'm cold.
In August.
What's that all about?
9.
The
ironing
pile
is
spectacular.
10.
I should be watching the
Paralympics Opening Ceremony.
One of my students is dancing.
I need to tell her
I saw her.
Help.

I'm sure the opening ceremony is on the internet somewhere.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome.
Just pretend about the dancing! Princess Bunchy does my ironing for minimum wage - first catch your princess ...
ReplyDeletePomona x
Watching other people dance does take it out of you .... you're right .
ReplyDeleteMaybe a cup of tea and a scone might help .
Woman up Mrs C, I know this is all well within your capabilities:-) and yes very cold for August but fear not, I have just bought a giant mac for dog-walking, it will now be hot and dry forever.
ReplyDeleteAhhh the social whirl... Missing you too!
ReplyDelete"Woman up...." pffff, very funny. But true. It's a great life if you don't weaken.
ReplyDeleteCoffee on shirt? Nothing.
Oh, MrsM. i haven't the words. OK. i found some: you are a delight, even when you can't write a post.
ReplyDeleteExcuses ALWAYS acceptable when accompanied by china. You are rapidly becoming my favourite person!
ReplyDeleteA spot of Sue's (The Quince Tree) stock of jam, jelly or chutney would look so pretty with your plate.
Thinking of Sue, I shop courtesy of Tesco online...and still do a shopping list first. Worse still, I typed then copied a master list. I highlight the items to order using a gaudy highlighter and score off what I don't want using a black pen. Is it too late for therapy?
