Ba-ack!

1. Back from Gran Canaria, which was gloriously hot and sunny. Here it seems to be cold and dark (though today was actually a very fine day for January, and I was grateful to wake to sunshine).

2. Have done one load of laundry (out of three).

3. Have dry-shampooed one cat (out of two, but Shiva doesn't need it because she doesn't smell bad). Sam is greyish but has forgiven me.

4. Have many books to write up: ( these )

5. Have much post to process, including another letter from Currys that indicates they are unable to process a complaint concerning the excessive uselessness of their customer service except by reiterating said uselessness.

6. Have slight nausea / dizziness, ongoing, probably a combination of post-holiday / post-travel anticlimax and the viral thingy that has been with me since before Christmas. GP tomorrow.

7. Have split ends due to spending much of each day in pool / sun. Hairdresser tomorrow too.

8. Have camera full of pictures. Flickr soon!

9. Have not especially missed teh interweb. Did anything happen*?

10. Have long to-do list, which I am ignoring in favour of bed / book / sweet-scented purry cat.

*happy to see Scrabulous is still going!
