Saturday blah, still recovering

[elegentry]

This post will likely be dull. Don't expect anything very interesting. I just feel inclined to put some thoughts down.

I almost always spend the first half of Saturday feeling heavy headed, blah, mentally beaten up by the working week, pummelled about in the brain. Today is no exception. I was pleased though to wake to the sound of rain. That does prevent me from doing the gardening that I was planning this morning.  Not the end of the world but pottering in the garden is one of the most restful and restorative things.

I have also decided that I should not work on the sewing project I wanted to finish today until I have been to spotlight and bought the missing bit, in case that changes design decisions. So I can't work on that either.

Think I will sew some quilt binding and maybe start on the Christmas tree. I could tidy up <grimace>, maybe later.

The big question is: when is the best time of day to visit Spotlight then Aldi? I usually avoid supermarkets on Sat until about 3pm but I am going to the opera tonight and that timing is too late. If I go to Spotlight when it opens, then Aldi, I would be in the nasty Sat crush.  Decisions, decisions. I have also never been to Aldi before. What ever, I will go or not as I am inclined a bit later. Hmm, I could go to Aldi and then spotlight given it is not so baking hot today and I don't want much in Spotlight. That sounds like an idea.

Wishing I was as eloquent and amusing as some of my friends. I often read posts and emails, thoroughly appreciate them but feel blank about replying or joining in. My composition skill with words has never been very good. I shall hold on to the thought that my composition skill with physical things is somewhat better.

(after running to the front door and back)
Oh. I thought I was over the burglary. Seems I am not just yet. I have the front door open, screen locked, just heard a strange noise out front which made my heart leap and small panic attack ensued. Suddenly I could cry. Damn silly behaviour.

Ah well. I will try for resorative activies today, which should include some tidying 'cause the results would make me feel better. Then I go to see Handel's "Alcina" tonight. I do love Handel opera. I don't know anything about this one but it will surely be several hours of glorious music. I will miss Graham Pushee though. He has starred in the other Handel operas that I have seen.

Hi m'dear. Glad you think I sound like me. That is the intention really. I suppose I can live with that. To be the sort of amusing and well written that I refer to- I think I would have to be a different person.
