I think we are all ready to get back into some sort of routine. Whilst switching off for a while does everyone a bit of good, I think we have outstayed our welcome in lazyland. I am feeling a bit edgy and snappy today, though I suspect that is in part down to the phone calls with my Aunt. I cannot help but go over old ground and think about my family when I have spoken to her, and inevitably this has troubled my night. I wish I could just take a giant blackboard rubber and get rid of it all, but if life were that easy we would all do it wouldn't we? I know that there is a lonely lady wanting some help, and I will do what I feel I can, but as is always the way, my family tend to be able to push the right buttons. I hope I am not like that with my girls when I get older, but perhaps there is a certain inevitability about it. I spend the day waiting for more calls that never come. Mrs Plug has finished at Burghley, and is preparing for two days at her sister's house with the girls. I will spend the time getting ready for work, and generally getting in the correct mood. I felt the darkness fall a little over the last few days, and I need to ensure it goes no further.
I watched the TV programme "An Appropriate Adult" which was in essence a dramatisation of the Fred and Rosemary West Case. Lots of horrific memories, but done beautifully well, and without the sensationalism. It must be incredibly hard to play a character like Fred West with an element of humanity, but Dominic West did it brilliantly.
