I Had these Good Intentions…

After the dismal failure that was last week, I was determined to yank up my socks and do something constructive this week. I even went so far as to order the wooden struts that I need to replace on my bonsai shelves. They’re not coming until next Saturday, which was disappointing. I suppose I could start by dismantling the ones that are slowly rotting away, and I could make a start on preparing the wall for yet another coat of paint.

The trouble with this idea, is that all of this takes place out in our yard, and I need to stay indoors in case Anita needs anything. She hasn’t been at all well lately. It’s a bit touch and go between the two of us, as there seems to be a competition going on to see who can shuffle off first. At least that’s what it feels like, most of the time.

A funny thing happened on Saturday. I received an email from Amazon.com saying that the book I ordered was on its way. One of my books, BTW, one I didn’t order but was thinking about! Are we getting AI doing mindreading now?

There have also been some serious hints dropped about the state of our hedge. Hints I am trying to ignore, for our neighbour is usually kind enough to cut this hedge. For some reason, he hasn’t done it this year. Maybe it’s the awful weather? I don’t fancy shinning up a ladder, but I suppose I will have to, soon…

Thanks for listening!
