1. The day starts late. Or I start late. Let's not point fingers, I'm just late, but I do catch up with myself and get back on track.

2. Loads done today. Loads. What felt out of control yesterday feels manageable today.

3. An excellent dinner of chicken, lemon, garlic, asparagus and potatoes. It's not until we start making dinner that we begin to smile again - last night brought us down - the weather, the cold, the hard work - but tonight we're laughing again.

4. A BBC4 documentary about Annie Nightingale is very cool.

5. A pretty gorgeous sunset lifts our spirits even more. It might be sunny tomorrow.
