On the lapse of time
On Friday I spent 20 minutes doing the following –
· Examining my face up close
· Checking my diary for possible medical appointment dates
· Making an appointment to go see my dentist
· Looking at a world standard times map
· Staring into space – deep in thought
I’m sure there are better things I could have been doing – like working. I often complain that I do not have enough time to do all the things I want to do, but surely if I spent less time arsing around I would have all the time I need.
I decided that over the weekend I would make up for my time wasting by doing some stuff that I had been putting off for ages. I did the following -
· Repaired the worn out denim in one of my favourite denim jackets. I wouldn’t say that the result is in any way subtle, but I am happy.
· Finished a pair of Jaywalker socks that according to my Ravelry project stats were started in July 2007!!!
· Photographed various knitted items to update my Ravelry project details.
· Took photos of Dave for possible use on his new website.
· Made roast chicken with all the trimmings.
I am happy that I made good use of my time.

obvsly you don’t spend half the time arsing around as I do! Gloves are amazing. I have been inhaling pollen and girl guide cookies; am a bit fractious. How are you and bump?
Love you,
Eleanor

Katkins – jacket is at least 25 years old!
Mick – hope the new job goes well!
Eleanor – inhaling pollen and girl guide cookies (are they some kind of drug that I haven’t heard of before?) sounds not so good. I am fine and dandy, bump is very small but at least I don’t feel sick and tired all the time! Yay!
