Solitary?

I have been awake for ages listening to the radio and willing myself to get out of bed! It does not help that its Sunday! There is one church open...actually its a chapel and very beautiful...but somehow I lack the resolution to get myself ready to go! The news is all depressing...outside the traffic on the road started very early...lots of people are going home I think. This will give many people some joy...we have been crowded out by people who came to Cornwall in stead of going abroad. I was told yesterday that they are now on the move! But the sun still shines...its truly glorious out there so I imagine more might be arriving to take their place! Here all is well...so why do I still hesitate to join in? I feel safe here on my own. And thats the depressing answer! I need to feel safe in a way I never have before! Becoming aware of all the dangers lurking out there has made me reluctant to be the woman I have always been till now! The old Jean would have just got on with everything regardless! But the new old Jean needs safety! I will have my shower, wash my hair, get dressed and get on with the solitary life! Someone might turn up! And if they do will I welcome them in? The need to be solitary is too strong! But I expect I would accomodate any changes if they occurred! So lets get on with it!

Late to the party once again.

Glad you are content with safety, because the times are a bit uncertain. But I am pleased to report that we attended the 20th Birthday of our twin grandchildren on Saturday evening, the first time of being with them for over 1.5 years.
It was quite lively is all I will say.
