Thursday Evening

Good evening,

Well I didn't sleep earlier, just rested and watched Buffy until the tiredness passed.

Eventually I biked down to the sea, the tide was out but the waves were huge and crashing, one crazy windsurfer was out, but the wind was so strong that I couldn't bike back along the front, the wind was blowing sand and debris everywhere.

I have been on my cooking and diet lessons, I have put a chicken stock on to simmer, chicken bones and vegetables etc :) and cut up the ingredients of a stew which I will do next.
Those who aren't keeping up, I have had to change what I eat because of my asthma and worsening metabolic illness, so I am doing a lot of freshly prepared, healthy and filling meals. And having an oven at last is really helping.
I guess I remember cooking meals for my family when I was young, that was just basic stew or meat, potato and veg or pasta and cheese or whatever, but it means I am not entirely new to this domestic stuff.

I think I will go down to the road end wall in a while, just because I love the sea and the wind, and I will have a bath.

Today was a several hug day, the lesser spotted landlady hugged me when we were talking about the possible consequences of the inspection, and I had a hug with an old friend who I haven't seen for months :) Sometimes my no physical contact rule has exceptions.
The other lovely thing about today was the little gift I got in the post :) As well as the food parcel I collected and the time spent with friends. And the lovely weather :)
