Tuesday has it in for me. Nothing ever goes to plan on a Tuesday.
Yesterday’s day plan A.
- Take down the Christmas decorations and put them away
- Go to the tip
- Have a bonfire
Nothing major. I don’t go mad with the decorations preferring natural foliage.

I got up to a leaking boiler. Next to the boiler are 40+ full boxes of books. It meant moving at least the ones nearest the water. Only 6 boxes. Fortunately the leak was easily remedied and only the bottom layer of books nearest the leak were spoilt.
A connection was loose and I did that myself but the morning was gone and the days are short.
Plan B. Do I go to the tip? The tip is up hill via a winding lane. The car’s playing up and there’s a lot of snow.
Plan C. I do take down most of the lower decorations with the cat’s help but the thought of climbing steps when I ache from shifting books prompts me to give up and have a bonfire.

Not a total loss. There was also a couple of silver-linings. I found the dog’s tennis balls we’d been searching for before she left for her holidays and I used up most of the Christmas kitchen roll on mopping up.
