At the end of the day

Second last morning here for months; tomorrow we have to shift out the breakables and heavy stuff, before the house is lifted, moved forward and then the reparative work and renovations takes place over the next few months. Went out along the road on my run, getting a whole series of failed pictures. No tripod and small camera meant that the crescent and Venus were slightly doubled at best. Because it was still very early, the morning light photos were uninspiring.

Spent the day packing things away, shifting heavy potplants, helping son-in-law take a fridge away along with other interesting items, and doing a couple of long reports. Almost an hour ago we sat down to a dinner of corn on the cob, and wine; basic staples of life. All I had to do was open the wine and pour it, then eat and drink; all thanks to S, who has done much more of the drudge work during today and still looks after me.
