Alright I've been back for about 24 hours now so it's time to start whinging. It's not even the cold that's getting me down (this alpaca woollen jumper is almost too warm), IT'S THE GREY. IT'S 1PM AND I'VE HAD MY LIGHTS ON ALL DAY. So bleak outside. Give me back my sun!

I have a bunch of chores to do like packing away all my summer items, moving pots back to my (fixed) balcony and tidying up the thoroughly messy carport, heaps of laundry, changing bedsheets, washing the bird poop off my car from just before I left (bad timing, it's been on the car for 2.5 weeks now)...

Looking at the weather I think I can put it all off to Monday. And so I shall. I deserve a day of doing nothing (but maybe I'll get the car washed today and do a bit of laundry). (and sort out the presents.)
