Alan and I were up late until around 3.30am last night, I was writing and working on a piece of flash fiction. It was of course really late when we woke up, probably about 11am and so we got up and had breakfast. I'd put a loaf on overnight in the breadmaker and we had scrambled eggs, avocado with sriracha sauce.
We put Space Force on the TV and I ended up napping on the sofa for a bit which it occurred to me hasn't really happened in lockdown as I'm generally getting a lot more sleep.
We'd debated going to the usual parkrun location at later than 9am as one of my friends had invited me, but we got up too late. We even got up too late for virtual parkrun coffeeshop. Lauren had also invited me to a creative writing group at 1pm, but I was a bit too exhausted although I'm really keen to join it next month.
I hoovered the house and tidied the kitchen and set off the dishwasher and tidied up the lounge - more to be done tomorrow. I listended to the High Low Podcast as I was doing it.
Alan did more coding and then went to get the shopping via click and collect and I joined the dance class by our friends 6 year old daughter again. She did a good job and I dropped off my £1 payment on my run along with returning the Singapore guide book that they had leant us and 7 egg boxes that I'd saved up. They have chickens and right at the start of lockdown were very kind at giving us some eggs on a few occasions. I debating running with the 6 eggs they gave us, but in the end I picked them up on the way home it seemed like a wiser move! I ran a bit more steadily as my hips have been sore and so I managed about 3.5 miles in 32 minutes.
Maya managed to catch and kill and bird and as usually insisted on bringing it all the way upstairs, I love birds and it really breaks my heart when the cats catch and kill them.
Alan cooked a very delicious Carribean lamb curry and made rhubarb and apple crumble for dinner.
We then watched more Picard and finished the series and then I put on Catfish that I've not watched for ages.
I considered thoughts around the Black Lives Matters protests, What was really interesting was that Alan mentioned he'd seen 2 people doing a little protest at the supermarket, I wonder if a really organised and very socially distanced protest could reach lots of different locations? I also read this article which really did make me pause for thought on this.
