…and happily so. I am enjoying this season of festivity and having a new polyamorous lover in my life that I’m sort of dating. We had a couple of sleepovers at his around the Solstice and I went to my sister’s for a Solstice lunch. And at his, I was cooked for and looked after before we went our separate ways.
I have had a lovely – if weird-sounding Christmas Eve. I caught up with my washing up mountain, decanted home-made soup ready for freezing, made inroads into the laundry pile, sorted a clothing pile, did some tidying and bought cornflour, pasties and a washing up bowl! I also listened to Christmas music and watched Christmas telly and had a lovely relaxed day.
I am looking forward to more seasonal TV, an episode of The Archers and more Jane Austen – I am now well into “Sense and Sensibility” – and am so happy to be a woman in the 21st century and not regency times! Loving the book though. One thing about a dodgy memory – rereading is a great and sometimes surprising pleasure! I have my Welsh Duolingo to do and may do some puzzles if the mood takes me. I am also soaking some potato strips in preparation for an air frier chip experiment!
I am looking forward to another couple of home-alone days and will be cooking my turkey crown overnight ready for a day of sheer indulgence tomorrow. And then I shall be sociable again and feed my sister and friend on Saturday and still have a further Christmas celebration with my lover to come – I am enjoying my extended Christmastide so far – after all – there are supposed to be 12 days…
