What a month it's been. History never looked this intense or so furious, or has it? Social media can overwhelm us but I wouldn't want to not have it. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to talk to you, here on this page.


I'm officially out of my house but had to go back this morning to collect some larger appliances (okay it was a vacuum cleaner and a carpet shampooer) and it was strange walking into the vacant space. Even it was only overnight for one night, I felt an energy change. I was also looking for my laundry basket that had my long sleeved running tops in it, which had kept me guessing where I'd left it at 1am this morning.


I volunteered to make spag bol for supper and it was strange using someone else's stove/appliances/spices. I had better get used to different heights of kitchen counters and not knowing where anything is. Pleased to report the meal was rather tasty, even if I had almost stared hypnotically at the flame that licked my hand when I tried to light the gas. (My old stove had a self igniter)


One full day of abode-free while the month draws to a close.


P.S I found my basket later in the day, after it had been hiding in the cupboard of my old bedroom.
