Finally . . .
The crazy months are over and I think normality (or what passes for normality in T Manor) may be returning!
M-i-L flitted yesterday to a nice little flat a couple of miles along the shore from my house - too far to walk but she can get the bus here if she's lonely - and she's top of the list for a 'sheltered' house in the grounds of the eventide home. The local grapevine says there's a cottage coming up soon and because she's a clergy widow, the church have agreed to help her with the payments. After all this time since the fire (it was in June) she deserves a bit of luck.
And it's so peaceful! I can sit at my computer without having the Daily Express (aka the Daily Whinge) read out to me and I can let my house get as dirty and untidy as I want without feeling guilty - yay! I can go back to cooking what I like to eat and not having to consider an aged digestion - double yay!
And now I have to settle down to write my DTC story. I was tempted by nakeisha's challenge on(20_est_relships but decided I better not commit myself considering how slowly I write! Speaking of which, I see there's a story posted by the lovely and talented the_haunt so I'm off to read it forthwith!
