It has been raining for days though I quite like the serious, torrential rain which legitamises lying around in front of the television. School sport was cancelled on Saturday so we did baked and filled the house with bread and lemon cake and chocolate brownie smells. Older daughter went to a sleepover party on Saturday night so younger daughter and I were cosy together though she did not like being upstairs alone at bed time until I took two cats up to keep her company.
I went to collect the older one on Saturday morning. Beautiful house which made me sigh about my own cluttered home but then I left envy behind and enjoyed their beautiful (and enormous) golden retriever who wanted to be my friend.
I watched Dave Chapelle's Block Party in evening. I loved it. I replayed the scenes of Lauryn Hill and the Fugees and Jill Scott and the Roots over and over. It was so satisfying, so life affirming, such a great idea.
My sister sent me an email that annoyed me but I'm over it now. I moaned a bit to this person.
Then yesterday a work colleague confided in me about a matter that was troubling her greatly. I am a bit shell shocked at what she told me since I have had to radically reassess my view of someone who I had previously liked and admired. I actually face a bit of an ethical dilemma but given that I was given the information in confidence I have to respect that. I slept badly thinking about it.
