selenayReason #801 why it's great when Mum finally goes back to England: I spent the whole of Saturday afternoon on the couch with a stack of books, several cups of tea, a blanket and two cats.
Nobody interrupted me to do little jobs or get my opinion on something or just have a nice chat. I got a book finished, I got a quarter of the way through another one, and it was glorious. I'm still probably going to end up renewing a book or two at the library this week, but at least I'm making headway on my stack of books.
It's not that I don't love Mum or that I hate having her around...but I'm not really cut out for having her around full time. Saturday afternoon? First time I've had some proper uninterrupted reading time for months. Although she's a big reader, for some reason she's never been very good at just letting me sit and read for an afternoon.
Tonight will be reason #802: homemade nachos are totally a valid choice for a lazy supper before I hit chat for my writing group :-D
And possibly reason #803: there is no rule that says I can't have a glass of Baileys while writing. Even on a week night.
