Caught in the sunlight

The mimosa is coming out now and the sunlight caught this tree quite nicely. I went down to the market first thing to get a squash to make more soup. There were plenty of butternuts but only one of the ribbed pumpkins I particularly like (the musque de Provence variety). I snapped it up.. Mrs TT decided to test her legs having regained some energy after the flu so we walked up to the belvedere in the sunshine. I returned to make about four pints of soup and then spent a long time trying to check our Ameli health accounts and the associated Mutuelle insurance payments for recent appointments and prescriptions. It is quite tricky to match up appointments, prescriptions and payments for they never tally exactly with bank statements as certain pharmacy deductions are made. It is all rather impenetrable but I think in the end I worked out that the correct payments are being made. Bell practice resumed. There were just six of us.
