venetia_sassyThere are supposed to be several 30C days coming up. It's only September, dammit! I imagine it was the unexpected heat today that's left me feeling so listless and achy. Just ... bleh. It really does get tedious, constantly having to examine every symptom, trying to divine possible cause and remedy.
R the Dodgy Builder (as Mum calls him. It's not quite fair of us. He's not that bad, it's just that our landlord is an amazing cheapskate with everything) came over today to help Mum put up a couple of heavy mirrors and pictures and to try to get the clothes dryer back on the wall. They're going to have another go at that. But the mirror in my bedroom is up! The shape and style does give me a slight 'mirror, mirror, on the wall' feeling, I'm finding. But it looks good.
I continue to devour the Agatha Christie novels (including more from the library) but I am varying slightly today with rereads of The Seventh Sinner and The Murders of Richard III by Elizabeth Peters. I adore the first and quite enjoy the second.
No Leura visit after all. Sadly, Flora's elderly aunt died today (suddenly but not unexpectedly) so tomorrow is not exactly the time for social calls. Doctor's visit on Friday (which I don't expect much from but I need to stock up at the dispensary), shopping on Sunday, Mum's off on Tuesday ... the more I do physically, the less I can do mentally. *sigh* Stupid illness.

Yes, the fairy tale look! I wondered if a rectangular mirror might be more practical - but this was so elegant and different to what I'd had.
