The family left before breakfast so I forgot to get up. Normally, I hear Bill thumping around but today he was not around. I did get up at 8.15am and had my breakfast. I thought I'd do my normal routine when I'm on my own and that's to read the BBC news on my iPad. Unfortunately, sitting in the kitchen, I had no reception so that idea went through the window.
It was a snowy day, and there was no one around, so I decided to be lazy. I spent most of the day reading, writing and snoozing. It was lovely although at times I did feel guilty. I really do get fed up with that Protestant ethic business but what to do about it when it seems to be in my genes?
