Wake up and realise that it is Monday. It is the second last Monday of this persons life as an employee, and it is just like any other Monday. Awake early, shower and make coffee, all these things as always, the first day of the week. Read the news on the computer, America is boring, it seems to be turning into a respectable country again, Britain is being plucky and giving the virus a fighting chance and France is in misery. Germany has two men fighting over the replacement of the chancellor, and both trying hard and heading for failure.
Feed the cat some of the cat food that has been resting in a tin since yesterday, in the refrigerator. The cat seems alarmed and backs off. Leave the food be, it is a problem that the wife and the son can solve when they get up in three hours time.
Nearly forget to take the pill against the high blood pressure, the pressure that is climbing steadily. The neck is sore, the right ear is hissing, who knows what on earth is going on. Leave the house to face a sunny day.
And now, in the evening, the day has turned bloody bitterly cold and snowy.
This weather is typical for April, and there is concern about what will happen when work ends, retirement starts, and there is no pressure to get up and go to work in the morning
