Fiona's Quiet Life

didn’t do any work in the attic as the lad­der fell to bits so i spent a while fix­ing a some­thing to keep the hatch door closed so that i wouldn’t freeze or be inund­ated with spiders.….….it was just the bot­tom of the lad­der came away from the hatch so it now wont close when the lad­der goes up and the lad­der whizzes out at me when i try to get it down , i will fix it prop­erly tomorrow,

what i did do? Yes­ter­day after pro­cras­tin­at­ing for a year was . i put up a secur­ity cam­era over my front door so now i can see and hear people at the front of the house, i had thought it would be dif­fi­cult to do but it was very easy.

It is a good thing i have the nice new log fire because the boiler is kaput.…..not to worry i have a main­ten­ance con­tract, thank heav­ens, and a guy is com­ing out tomor­row to fix it.

My new cam­era over the door works well, friends wave bottles of wine at it and i let them in .

try­ing to make the din­ing room look more attract­ive by remov­ing all the excess fur­niture and the big com­puter, now it needs a chair to match the comfy one that is there, but it is leather and the match­ing one is hugely expens­ive and also it is 30 years old and a bit weather beaten .….……it lived in the gar­age for a while.….… how­ever eBay have some sim­ilar at a reas­on­able price so per­haps i will bid.oooh the excitement.

oth­er­wise nice quiet day. hav­ing had a couple of really bad nights i fell into a deep deep sleep this after­noon, find­ing it dif­fi­cult to wake up , so i shall go to bed , that is bound to wake me up.
