slow, dull blunt

 Dull and blunt, the day just progressed free of excitement. The usual difficulties getting out of bed, try a new strategy, showering and dressing and then making breakfast and not in any other order. It works, but it is dull and not very interesting. 

There is work to be done, information came in overnight. The information is helped on its way by two telephone calls. There is a touch of urgency there. Things are nearing completion, it will be time soon to start the next project. 

The small bathroom cleaning device arrives. It is a disappointment.

Midday comes, it is time to leave and go to the gallery for that Sunday meeting. Greet the people at the gallery. Talk for an hour or two, there are plenty of other elderly people trying to be funny. Then, they almost all leave to go to a restaurant next door. Stay in the gallery and chat with the owners wife who has been left alone to mind the premises.

Then depart, go to the café for a cup of coffee and a slice of lemon cake.

When that has been finished, go home again.

Start trying to fix up the taxes, collate the documents and to make sure of all the requirements, to make sure that they are satisfied.

And then, ever so slowly, the day goes to its end
