Yesterday morning I walked along to Ali’s to prepare for a disciplinary hearing. It went smoothly in the end but was stressy and horrid and one of those things you’d really rather just not be part of. I came home for lunch and in the afternoon Ady and I went and collected some firewood from the woodland at the foot of the croft.
We walked down to the village to get some beers for Ady and some pineapple for pizza and stayed for a beer with the various people at the shop. A nice evening with a toast to the fact it was the 3 year anniversary of arriving at our first WWOOF host Steward Wood which really doesn’t seem like such an extreme existence these days! Who’d have thought those people struggling up a hill three years ago would live at the top of their own hill now?
I worked this morning – it was a quiet shift and the boat was cancelled due to crazy weather. Ady was next door in the hall helping various folk clear up the village hall ready for the season. I joined them for an hour after work before we headed off home for lunch. The kids had downloaded a new game app on their tablets last night which has been consuming them most of the day.
It rained all afternoon so I finished off the newsletter, Scarlett had a shower and I brushed her hair, the kids played with the Lego between tablet time and we had dinner and watched a few episodes of Friends.
Tomorrow I am looking forward to no alarm clocks and no need to be anywhere at any time with anyone.
