Winding down

Time, this morning, for a couple of wanders around Tain to pick up a few bits and pieces. It's been a while since I did a collage, so here's one. I was lucky that it was pretty sunny whilst I was out.

After lunch, I slumped on the sofa. Theoretically, I was reading. In practice, I fell asleep and had to be woken up by Mr A shortly before we were due across at the neighbour's house for a drink and nibbles.

I've managed to read a bit more this evening. It's Lessons by Iain McEwan. I hope I get it finished before the end of the year as my rate of reading books this year has been pretty poor.

I don't feel that physically tired in the sense that I couldn't go for a long walk or exert myself. I just feel that I need to switch my head off, and that's precisely what I intend to do over the next few days. If Christmas didn't exist in the form it currently takes, it would need to be invented.
