There's a sameness about life at the moment as each day seems to be just a reflection of the one before. There are subtle differences, of course: we usually receive a Coles' order on Friday and I have to put out the bins for Wednesday morning, but in general terms one day is just like another. Is there a song with those words?
This week, the stand-out day is Wednesday where we have, not one, but two events: the first is a luncheon involving my Probus Club where Marilyn will attend as my guest, and the other is that we will have to hurry away from the luncheon for our appointments with the podiatrist.
I've been giving serious consideration to the Probus Club. I've managed to off-load the job of treasurer but I've been a member for about three years and still only know a handful of names. Part of that is my lack of attention to such things but the rest is that we only meet once a month and don't do much else. Most of the members have known each other since school and I still feel I'm the outsider.
Thinking about tomorrow's luncheon, I can't say that I'm looking forward to it. Having Marilyn with me will make it more enjoyable but otherwise I'm ambivalent.
Still, if we weren't going, what else would we do? Sit at home reading our books, no doubt!
