Why is it that when I am on holidays I plan to be better organised in the new year of work, but when I get back to work, it disintegrates. Somehow I seem to get to work and then not have time around the house to do all I would like to do. Part of that is getting distracted, and other parts are things that come up unexpectedly.
On such unexpected was the pleasure of having someone whom I had not seen for many years call in. That was a pleasant change. It was really nice to see him, and to be able to find out some of the current interests he has. I hope that he will call in again sometime.
I am also being distracted from my reading of books, but have read a great book that I am recommending to anyone who needs a laugh. The One Hundred Year Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared by Jonas Jonasson. I recommend it for a farcical, hilarious take on the twentieth century big events, and the fun of having someone live a life unlikely. Still it did have a lot to it. What is even better is that it is now a week since I finished it and I type this with a smile on my face, thinking camels, elephants, many countries, strange help, and all of the wonderful things that the book contained. The end led itself to you filling in the possibilities, and a frightening potentiality for Australia.
Enough for now, the dishes await, and I must get to them.
Hopefully I will get back to the doing of the Sunday type.
