sequiter

 Wake up and feel better. It must be because it is warmer, so check the temperature using the thermometer hanging on a nail in that outside wall. See that the temperature is just eight degrees, which is not warm. It has been colder though.

Go downstairs, and shave in the cold bathroom. The hair on the face has become stubbly again.

Force some sleep, and take the pills all early. This is a test to see if the sleepiness and tired feelings hitherto experienced later in the recent mornings is may be related. Lie down again, it is barely light outside.

At nine, awake and feel good. Go downstairs, make breakfast, and then read the news. Dress for the day, make the bed, and sort out the white washing from the washing container. 

There is something wrong, this old body and its mind have not felt so well for a long time. 

After having dealt with a number of small morning things ask the son whether or not he would approve of a midday snack in town.

He says yes, and then go out and have such a snack in his company. Try to understand the complex things occupying his mind, all to to do with computer and information theory.
