26.5.19:
My
civic duty took me over to the Mairie to vote before coffee. There were an
array of possible lists to vote for including one that featured a dog rather than a
human on its posters.
Felt
out of sorts over coffee. Only 4 of us there and conversation was dominated by
the person who usually dominates any conversation whoever is there.
Spent
the afternoon sorting out my tax papers before the deadline is upon me.
Ended
the day as it started at the Mairie this time for the count. Marine Le Pen's
party "Rassemblement National" was predicted to be the overall winner
and the village didn't buck the trend.

27.5.19:
This
morning duty called again, this time for a committee meeting. Then went with
Maggie to the supermarket and the fridge is looking happier than it's done for
many a week!
Cooked
and "prepped" (Jill's got me at it now) for Ken and Kathy, the NZ
cousins' visit. Early evening I kept myself busy and wondered when JJ would come to help with my
tax return. Finally phoned him only to find that he'd come home exhausted and
forgotten.
So,
tomorrow's plan to meet Ken and Kathy
seem likely to be thrown out.
As
all this was going on there was a crisis with Mum who had worried me when I'd
phoned. Suffice it say that she's let her leg get into a state and never said a
word. Upshot, Alison spent 6 hours of her birthday with Jill in A and E and
Jill was robbed of some much needed "me time". Mother played up not
wanting to go, then wouldn't stay the night at Jill's. Spare
me from ever becoming so selfish. Not best pleased that she hasn't a thought
for Jill.
The sunset is perhaps indicative of my sentiments!
