Fishy reflections

Today was supposed to be the day that the veranda blinds would eventually be fitted. It is only nine months since they were ordered! One appointment was broken and at the next appointment they turned up with the wrong blinds. That was six weeks ago. No one had arrived by mid-morning, so I chased them up. I was told they would be there in the afternoon and I reminded the owner that there were some finishing touches to the veranda to do as well. I received a call at lunchtime from the fitter saying that he thought it was more than half a day’s work and as they have to come a long way, would I mind if they came tomorrow morning first thing. I reluctantly agreed as I did not want them to rush the job. Fingers crossed they actually arrive tomorrow. I did some gardening in the morning and in the afternoon went down to join the painting group. There were only three of us, but I enjoyed finishing off my latest canvas.
