Day 1

I feel like I don't fit in.  Two reasons.  

1. I went for an early swim today.  That was great.  Set up for the day.  Then decided to stop off at shops as I need some food to share at yoga tomorrow.  Then worried as I had only gymn gear.  Panic over.   Everyone else is in leggings and trainers and looks a mess.  

2. I voted Green for constituency MP and Libdem for the rest.  In M&S I feel surrounded by these 'shy tories'.  Don't feel able to scream 'Do you know what you have done?' 

Drive home.  In my friend's garden the libdem 'poster on a post' says it all.  The candidates name has blown off.  The name of the previous candidate is exposed.  And upside down.  

I have come home to hide away and get on with life.  The question is how.  As ever. 

Listening to ecuatorian leyendas and sorting more old photos in the answer.  Talking on Skype and Facetime to niece and daughter.  Former looks like Sid Vicious after a bad night. She has a hangover as she had to escape the election result and celebrate the new job.  I tell her I did the same with three different halves.  She tells me that isn't celebrating.  Hmmmm.  Daughter is worried the NHS is on the way out. I try to reassure her that they say not. I say they have already put about a third of it in the private sector. Yes, and it doesnt work is the answer.  I agree but reassure her that there is a political pendulum.  Not much else to do but reassure.  Though I have tweeted our MP to ask for more info on the promise of 7 day working for GPs.  Husband says I am wasting my time. 

Well, the wisteria and clematis are here and changing everyday and I am enjoying them on the patio with a cuppa and reading about David Hockney in the weekend mag.  Off to the wedding celebrations tonight. 

A really relaxing time with our group of friends.  A beautiful old barn in Middle England.  We lament its fate but have fun and let pur hair down too.  The groom plays base.
