Bah
Woke up at 5:30 and got up at 7 even though neither of us had to be up and off early this morning. Feeling extremely anxious this morning, despite not having any single cause for this. Just a sense of everything being out of control. Having to chase unpaid invoices, having no idea when we can move into our new house, intermittent workflow, legal delays, waiting for decisions on manuscripts and so on.
Nice text from Richard though this morning and I spoke to Mum and Mas briefly as I had not been able to contact them yesterday.Lorraine working at home this morning, but she ended up getting really stressed by a snotty head teacher who phoned her to say she was supposed to be at his school, and after she had frenziedly examined her diaries and lists, it turned out to be another Lorraine entirely.
I ended up going for a walk in the park to attempt to reset the day, and then spent the afternoon doing my accounts. Stopped work at 5:30 to then get my second rejection of 24 hours, The marketing book people had done a U-turn. They have however given me some other places I might send it and so on. Intensely disappointing, especially as the main problem with it seems to be its originality. This, by chance, also the crux of yesterday's rejection. Clearly the kind of ideas that one should have are the ones everyone else is having.
More house hassle this evening, too frustrating to describe, that Lorraine had to deal with. This is a Monday that can't accelerate fast enough into the dustbin of history.
