The calm….

….before the storm.

When I’m sitting in the sun on the boat, on peaceful, mirror-like water, it’s hard to believe that it will be blowing a hooley later! Another named storm (Floris), forecast to be blowing up to 60mph up at the north coast. The AM and I paid a flying visit so that he can add a few more ropes to the boat.

I’m feeling lethargic today. There’s a lot I could be doing but I can’t summon up the energy or enthusiasm for any of it! I’ll have to find a good book so I have an excuse for an hour on the sofa. I’ve just finished The Party by Elisabeth Day, which I enjoyed. The AM described it as ‘another Mr Ripley’ and I get that, although there’s definitely a lead-in for a sequel!

I’m going to open a couple more windows around the house now to see if that stirs me to a bit more activity.
