Good Friday

So here I was, trying to get onto my blog site and I get the following error message:- bX-kghhiz… so I try to find out what it means. Oh yes; As you can imagine there is not a single reference to it on the World Wide Web. That means, no matter how hard I try, I cannot update my blog.

Never mind, I have a plan, a cunning plan… I type up what I want to say on ‘word’ and copy and paste later on…. I have done this many a time. You cannot fool me (Ha ha).

Seriously though, today has been crap, utter crap. The weather is absolutely appalling, it makes me feel physically ill. I just cannot cope with the wind! I woke this morning feeling unwell. I slept well (apart from himself having a lively dream in the early hours!) but once I was up and about I just wanted to hide away from the world until all was better. I found myself in tears for no reason at all… I am so sure that it is to do with the weather – not really SAD syndrome – I can cope with grey days but cannot cope with the violent winds that we are getting… It must be to do with equilibrium. I don’t know if anyone had done research into this but I do know that the wind affects me (and I am not talking about too many beans!!).

Today I was supposed to be going to a lunch with the LIFT ladies, I pulled out as I felt so ‘unright’ I don’t think I could have coped with sitting there listening to the chatter and gossip going on. J said that I should go, “It would give you someone to talk to” he said. I replied, “Oh yes, but what do I talk about, I have nothing to talk about!” “ Hmm” he said. “OK” was my response, “there will be girls there that live a long way away who have there own little groups and have there own ‘gossip’, I don’t know what is going on, am I to sit there like a lemon? I like to have interesting conversation, not to listen about where to get a good haircut or buy cheap clothes, or who is doing what with whoever, see others drink too much wine and end up maudling!” He then shut up!!

So today I continued to put ‘crepi’ on my walls, this time in the little couloir between the kitchen and the B&B lounge. I didn’t realise that I had not finished decorating that small part of the house… It is now half done. Other half tomorrow (it is looking good!).

I will also need to get some paint for the doors and varnish/gloss paint for the door frames. There is a lot more to do than I realised. Mind you, I had budgeted for this (albeit 3 years ago!) and am just getting round to do it.

And so the weather continued wet and extremely windy… The river rose a couple of feet, and I felt more and more unhappy. I don’t think this is a depression, I went through that years ago after having my children. I only suffer like this when the weather is extremely windy… never had this in the UK. All I can say is, roll on summer and let me find a buyer for this house so that I can move to a sheltered place.

No hot cross buns in this house, it does not feel like Easter weekend, I suppose it is because it is not so hyped up as in the UK. I might have friends round for either Sunday or Monday. It is still open..
