Feeling Tired, Keeping Going

5.6.16:
Met up with Jean-Jacques, Nancy and Nicole P for coffee then lunch. Don't know where the othr "copines" were.  Uneventful rest of the day: Spanish homework, computer stuff, a shouted telephone call with Mother, a "steam train" call from Rowena and a boring episode of Wallander. At least there was a lovely sunset to counterbalance the Scandinoir.
Weather:
25°, Sun, blue skies, some white cloud later


 4.6.16:
Jacques gave Nancy and I a lift into the market where we met lots of people and when to a photographic exhibition about Burma. Brought back lots of memories of the twice that Christian and I had visited. Back to the village for an apéritif and an afternoon overdosing on tv.
Weather:
24°, Sun, cloud, rain and a little distant thunder

3.6.16: Active on the Association Front

Woke to blue skies which was a relief as the association was organising a boules match and lunch for 39 of us. I fetched, carried, took photos and spent time being nice to people, even those who I usually try to avoid.  As I wasn't playing, there was still time to go for a coffee and have a breather before helping to serve the couscous lunch. It was every bit as good as good as the last time. Made it home for 4pm and just flopped before being on duty again at 6pm to help organise the apéritif for this evening's vernissage. The association was sponsoring an exhibition of photos of the village taken by a 92 year old member. All went well and even Nancy who had only just flown in from the States, was there! Of course we went for a chat afterwards over a glass of wine even though I was feeling as tired as she was.
Weather:
25° Sun

2.6.16: Funghi Feast

Language exchange and a very moderate 1 glass of wine afterwards. Came home for lunch. Feeling tired, but even so I worked on updating the website. It shouldn't really take precedent over "Chitchat" (I'm writing this on 26th June!) but I'm too old change my priorities.
Made some biscuits to take to Gérard and Anna's for a "mushroom" evening. They're great walkers and foragers so with the rain we've been having they've struck lucky on the fungi front. Jacques, Nicole and Geneviève were there too and there were more than enough to go around.
Feeling exhausted, once I arrived home, it was straight to bed.
Weather:
21°, light rain later.
