Sunday, June 5

We were both woken at 6.20 this morning by a huge flurry of wind and rain on our roof.  Clearly, winter is settling in and we're getting a taste of what we can expect for the next few months.  Nothing is planned for today; Marilyn has acquired the latest Vera Stanhope book and is quite happy to settle down in her comfortable chair and let the rest of the world go by.  I've had enough of sitting and reading, and would quite like to be doing something else but the weather is pretty awful.

I'll go to the gym later this morning and spend the rest of the day browsing the internet, checking out possible places for holidays in case we ever feel the urge to travel again.  Maybe we'll find a movie to watch this afternoon.  Life gets tedious, don't it?

I remember that song, by Walter Brennan, and can even recite the first verse:

The sun comes up and the sun goes down
The hands on the clock keep a-goin' 'round
I just get up and it's time to lay down
Life gets tee-jus, don't it, hmm
