Glorious morning. Both children were in our bed with Louise as I left. Eve woke just as I was about to go, so I took her from he got to Louise, & she fell directly asleep again. Too early for her to be stomping about really.
(train home) Again the day is sweltering. I am not ideally suited to such weather, burning to a crisp. Eve seems to have the sort of skin that could cope with the sun. She has got more & more brown as the summer days have set in. Louise describes her hands as being ‘black’. They do look like they could do with a good clean, but are in fact merely well tanned… Jack remains quite white compared to her increasingly olive complexion.
The contractors from the insurance are comming today (or suposed to have come today) to assess the damage that the pipe leak has done to our ceiling. Hopeully this will be on the road to resolution. The ceiling already is stained from previous water leaks from the broken seal on the bath – so with any luck that will be cleared up as well. I am not looking forward to yet more disruption, but if that is the way it is… that is the way it is.
I’m feeling a little short on things to waffle about really. There is nothing I feel I want to write about (excepting, perhaps one thing hinted at earlier, but I’m wanting to be coy there)… so perhaps I’ll do what ‘they’ all do & deconstruct, just a tad, & note that perhaps the good weather puts me in a better mood. I feel less of an urge to cleanse by writing. I would rather not be burdened by concentration.
Work is not too bothersome as things are settling in with the new company & the support issues thereof. I learn a little bit more here & there & sort out a little bit more here & there. It would be pleasant to actually have some definite under-pinning to my shaky logic on the perception of how things work, but the snippets I learn are keeping me happy enough for now. I actually feel vaguely confident that I will manage to learn some stuff here & there that will be useful.
Perhaps this ‘contentment’ will even transfer time being able to concentrate enough to do some organisation with ZUM!… That would be nice.
