    At a loose end

    Kind of feeling lost now I've finished uni. So much of the last 4 years has revolved around studying. I feel at so much of a loose end that I've emptied A's bedroom ready for painting! I know, I know. Pacing. I'm already in trouble with J as I didn't ask for help!

    I’m not surprised but…. Haven’t you got a rather large ‘books to read’ pile?
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I have but I know there's so much that needs doing that I'm struggling to just sit. So I've decided that tonight I'm going to hoover A's room and wash down the paintwork, and rather than start painting like I'd intended, I'm going to sit and read and only move to top up my drink!

    I may have overdone it again but if it makes J smile it's worth it.

    The weather is supposed to be terrible tomorrow so I thought since it's Father's Day and they've mostly been terrible for him so far, I'd make him an afternoon tea with the kids! So made pizza bread, cheese scones, chocolate scones, chocolate concrete and flapjack and currently making breadcakes for bacon sandwiches for breakfast. Also done the washing while it was dry and I could get it on the line and decided to clean the kitchen. I hurt now so I am going to rest as much as possible.
