Well, after a better nights sleep thanks to the cooling blanket, we got up fairly early.
I did my Dyalog pages, and then did another painted collage in my new Journal.
It was still clammy, and humid. So apart from doing my biking and revitive time we didn't venture far. A relaxing day ready before the hectic weekend at work.
News is filtering down that the date we go away to Brighton which was supposed to be when all covid sanctions were lifted is being postponed for a month. What that means for our holiday is we might not be able to go to any of the nightclubs as they won't be open. The pubs and restaurants should be though, so we should still be able to enjoy ourselves. It will just be nice to getaway.
You may have seen that I shared a piece on my Facebook that was by Anthony Hopkins. It was a long piece so I doubt many people would read it fully, if at all, it's like this blog, really most people skim read it when it's long. But that post shook me, it was so bloody true and on point. I don't know how many times I've wasted my time and energies on someone who doesn't deserve it, doesn't appreciate it, and kept going, because I was afraid not to. Fear of people not liking me. I was a doormat, but not now. I give my time still, to those who reciprocate, because now I don't care if people like me, I'm an acquired taste, you don't like me? Aquire some taste! I don't contact people if they don't contact me. It's a two-way street. I'm not going to pander to people who can't be arsed. I'm coming up to 58 years old. My time gets more limited by the day. I'm going to stop wasting it people-pleasing. I'll be there for those that are here for me.
