What really happened yesterday

Saturday 3 January 2009 9:30am

The correct date did show above yesterday's post, but just to be sure.

My brother rang at 9:30 yesterday morning and said he was coming to visit. He's in Melbourne from Switzerland and he goes back today. I put off the plan to sand the table and chairs because it was very unpleasant outside - cold and windy. Brother got a bit lost and arrived 2 hours after the planned lunchtime, so I wasted time again waiting for someone. Still, it was really good to see him. By the time he left, it was nearly pub time.

I am going to be more disciplined this year. More productive. I have done well the last couple of years to get my life on track and be truly independent. I have decided to take a course to become a civil celebrant this year. It may provide me with an income from here instead of having to travel to Melbourne every day. It's also something I can continue to do after I turn 65. I want to do funerals, not weddings, although I'll do both courses and maybe another one that is offered for life celebrations (although I'm not sure I could do pet funerals).

So, what will I do today? If it warms up later, I might get on to the table and chairs. Otherwise, I think I'll make sure I'm ready for work on Monday and I'll do a bit of music practice.
