Multi tasking, of sorts

.

I ran outdoors this morning, earlyish, after the dawn dog walkers and before the family strollers. Making progress and if I jog really slowly I can keep it up for quite a bit longer longer than my schedule advises. Fed up with distracting myself by doing the A to Z capitals of the world (you can’t repeat any in the last few runs), I made a positive things list:
No library fines so I can keep my photography book for a bit longer.
I have discovered a new recycling plant near IKEA, due to the closure of Shieldhall Road and a diversion which had this upside.
Richard Holloway’s prose – soothing and provocative (which I think is an example of what he calls negative capability)
Desperate Housewives twelve years on is darker and funnier 
 I have a strategy for a way forward – RH again.
There were other things but as is the way with running and thinking simultaneously they’ve evaporated. Probably just as well.
