Long, long week...

IS IT really only a week since we got back from our holidays? I’m almost ready for another one! To describe me as frayed is to put it mildly.

All right, my health problems are only minor – indeed, by the measure of some of my friends, miniscule. But real nonetheless. And to be told so by a doctor is sobering. Change your lifestyle, or else… This in itself goes hard.

But then at one point in the week, a neighbour is hauled off in an ambulance – serious heart-attack, his second in a week.

On more mundane levels, we discover our car is leaking petrol, our life savings have dropped by nearly a third (credit crunch, indeed!) and the computer printer is playing up again.

Isn’t it good to be home!
