Yesterday I failed to get up in time for psycho-appointment. And I was lazy for the rest of the afternoon, but did stuff in the flat in the evening.
Today I climbed far too many stairs. I went into Glasgow to go to Bairds and buy stuff for jewellery class, and it is on the fifth floor and there is a lift but it is an old-fashioned one with a man in it and that is scary so I took the stairs. I peched quite a bit. I am totally not as fit as I used to be. Also I went to John Lewis and got buttons and stuff to finish a garment, and they cost more than the wool did. Quite a bit more, iirc.
And I gave money to a busker because she was an old lady playing accordion. This is one of those things I get all awkward about - one of the many - but I did and I smiled at her and it was fine and sometimes I have to note these things so I remember I am capable of them.
I keep forgetting how long the bus takes from Glasgow, it is over half an hour. Sigh. But I had a good book that brother-in-law lent me and I just started today and may finish today or tomorrow. It is a fantasy novel called "The Name of the Wind" by Patrick Rothfuss and I am about a third of the way through it, and like it quite a lot.
And I went to class and made some earrings (which I have since given to Maureen as something of a peace-offering) and repolished my cut-out and reformed my ring which had been squashed and made a chain of five jumprings without any of them sticking together and did a bit more of my spoon. Also I broke an earring post and melted one of the earrings and left little bits of silver caked into the block. And I was putting things in the 'pickle' - a weak acid - and I leaned against the edge of the box it is in and so my purple t-shirt now has pink lines across my boobs. I am thinking I will play with bleach and make it look intentional, but dammit I liked that t-shirt. Ho-hum.
And I helped a woman with the ticket machine at the train station.
So I feel like I have achieved today. Go me!
