How lovely to have a new toy. Spent much of the day playing with the new laptop. Enjoying the shiny black casing, the working space-bar, the clean wide screen. Such pleasure, illusury of course and short lived. It's only a thing, but a thing to be savoured, for one day, at least. Tomorrow, I want to get myself a camera of my own too. I spent less on the laptop so I feel that I can. Self indulgent? Yes, oh yes.
Walked with Darcy and Nina through Spon End to her BSL course. Chatting and laughing. Walking her back, we were learning BSL swear words. I feel jealous as I never finished the level one course, although I was enjoying it. It was something taken from me in the PIA war. The smallest thing, but still I cried about it on the inside. I want to ask her if I could do the course with her, but don't want to cramp her style.
My attempts to loose weight remind me of better times at PIA. This evening, I thought of writing about the gain, loss and gain for Back of the Envelope. Following other people's bloggs, my former self identifies with them but for now, I'm content at 2lb a month, feeling good about not eating six packs of chocolate, or a whole cake.
Still irritated with Nick. He froze a fresh lasagna, it was big stuff.
Beryl Haughton got back to me to say the minolta can't be fixed, no parts. Gutted. Will have one more internet troll to see if anyone can repair it, but have a bad feeling that I may have to give it up.
