Pretty Sky

I'm not really feeling it today, partly because I didn't sleep well last. Brian's snoring woke me just after 4 AM, and then I couldn't get back to sleep. 

All the practical things I have to do between now and Christmas was playing on a loop in my head: food shopping for the girls' stay and The Day itself, dentist appointment, care home visit, presents to get for my Mum. My health and that of others I know, the cesspool that the internet has become (Blip excepted!) Our personal employment situation. The way the world is now. Etc, etc!

At just after 6 I got up. Minstrel came with me for his breakfast, then I went back to bed and slept until 9, but I've not been in the best frame of mind all day.

I have got stuff done though, including buying some stuff from town to take for my mum when I go to see her. Whilst in town I went to look for the vegan shop and the vegan cafe that used to be on Steep Hill. Both are gone! Annoying.

The Vegan options in Morrisons when we went shopping later were very scanty too. I guess now that it's not as trendy as it was a couple of years ago, it's going back to being niche again...

My Blip was taken in town this afternoon. It was neither sunrise nor sunset, but there was still a glow in the sky. At least my walk up the hill wasn't completely for nothing.
