Well I moped around all day. Did an online Creative Writing tutorial, then the post came and it was the material for my new OU course - Digital Photography. It’s just a 10 pointer I thought I’d squeeze in. It didn’t excite me too much as it consisted of 3 DVDs. One was Photoshop Elements 6 which I have, one was the OU Forum application, which I have, and the third was the set of tutorials. I’ve watched most of them and they are really basic PS tutorials. Still, the course will make me take photos.

I was starving mid-afternoon so boiled up some fresh pasta and added mushrooms, and left over tuna from tuna mayo lunch time sarnie. Added too much cajun and it was really hot. We were meant to have prawn curry tonight, but I was too tired to cook, and not hungry, so we both had another sarnie. J had cheese/salad and I had cold pork.

Still too worn out to go to Viewfinders. It was a shame as they were getting in ‘The Saggy Bottom Boys’ (group) for portrait session. Should have been good, but I just had no energy.

It’s 9.45 now and we’re watching ‘Pretty Woman’ (again!) Will probably go to bed then. No Second Life today!

After a lovely day yesterday I’ve woken up all flat. Almost depressed but not quite. I intended to get up to get some dawn shots of East Yorkshire for Thursday’s photo project, but when I did the day was grey and blustery, so decided not to. House is tidyish, so don’t feel like housework. Writing this blog is a bit of an effort. Don’t know why I’m doing it. Everything seems a bit pointless. Definitely no  gardening today, and maybe no cycling. It’s really ‘orrible out.

I’ve started reading ‘The Other Boleyn Girl’ by Phillipa Gregory, but am not ino it enough to want to get it out. In fact, all I want to do is curl up on the settee and channel hop on telly. And it’s only 9.20am. Oh well. I’ll do that and see if it helps. I’ll report back.
