A dangling day

Up and working with Keith at 8:30.  Both of us on better form, and work at the conceptual coalface easier.  But nevertheless a sort of dangling day, never feeling quite settled in anything. 

Lorraine's new raincoat arrived today, which was good because she deployed it immediately. She drove her car to the other side of town to get its door replaced. Walking back, she stopped for coffee at Adele's house, and they walked into town together.  

Maureen having a little more peace of mind after Pauline's funeral yesterday. Lorraine spoke often to her mum and Ken, who called Lorraine for advice from time to time.  Lorraine naturally preoccupied with how Maureen is feeling at the moment. She will go next week to be with them for various appointments.

A presentation to the FB, Pat and Perky this afternoon of the stuff Keith and I had been working on. Michel has the gift for infectious enthusiasm and our ideas went down fine. It seems, however, that we will have to work tomorrow morning.

To the Downs gym after work. By the time I arrived after the short walk I felt a bit weak and shaky. Almost came home, but instead drank lots of water, and soon found I was able to trundle on the cross trainer for an hour or so, while listening to my new ear phones, which do not actually push into your ears.  The sound is nice, but a smidge too quiet if you position yourself near a booming gym speaker.  

Home and Lorraine cooked her lovely fish curry, and we watched a video about about the best foods to eat for gut health -- and eventually watched a little TV. To bed early, listening to another chapter of Don Quixote together.
