London Day Three..

Much calmer day, pottering around the house, watching a whole bunch of tennis. Very excited about Laura Robson, just seems to have good mental attitude!

Hung out in the garden in the evening, with guests from NZ and people from London. This provides day 3's picture.. The result of my (lost) altercation with the garden gate!

They joined as an act of patriotism, tinged yes with fear, but also a sense that it might be the right thing to do.

Remembering What I Enjoy..

Occasionally I forget things. Some stuff like birthdays, names and stuff is a normal human thing, and I don't sweat it so much. But I also forget some other stuff which is not so good. I forget what I enjoy. I don't know how it happens but it does from time to time. And its at these moments that I need a bit of help remembering. So- this is a request for help. What do I enjoy doing? What gives me joy? Leave me a comment.
