The day in between.

Yesterday was Día Constitución  with the majority of places closed and tomorrow will be Inmaculada Concepción with - again - most places closed.  So today was possibly a  bridging day but when in doubt, don't go out!

I know the builders merchants was opening today as I asked,  and apparently at least one of the shops in Cadiar was open yesterday.  But as nothing is guaranteed it's best to make sure you don't need anything until Monday when life will be back to normal.

The weather has been a bit nothingy too,  yesterday it wasn't quite sunny, nor was it really cloudy,  cool if you weren't busy but ok if you were.  Today was forecast to rain, anything from drizzle to showers but I think we've had a few spots and that was all.  Not enough for John to stop what he was doing  and he didn't look wet when he came in for lunch.

I've had a kitchen day - not cooking, just cleaning and tidying things.  We have lots of glasses hanging up and they'd lost their sparkle but look a lot better now they've been washed.  Then there was the fireplace in the dining room,  lots of grot down from the chimney which needed cleaning up and then the surrounding area.....and so it goes on.  Doesn't get done often enough,  I need something to prompt me - either a wet day or as in this case,  Christmas and family coming soon.
