I went to the cinema today to see August: Osage County. Meryl Streep has had an Oscar nomination for it. It is about family relationships. The funny part of our trip was my friend got really concerned that she had taken me to see the wrong film. She nudged me a couple of times to say she felt really uncomfortable and if I wanted to leave, we could. It turned out that she was worried because Meryl Streep's character had cancer. It really wasn't something that was in my mind, and I wasn't bothered by it afterwards, either!
My window man didn't turn up today either. My window cleaner came about 5.30 pm (for payment) and said "windows" and I momentarily thought he had come to mend my windows, and was incredibly late! Not so, but, we both had a laugh about it. Apparently, my window mechanic was stuck at a job in Warrington. This has "happened" two days on the run.
My shower fuse popped yesterday. I (luckily) had decided not to wash my hair, but I was covered from neck to toe in bubbles, and had to wash standing up in the bath. When I removed the fuse (in an old victorian fuse box), there was evidence of burning! I have got to call an electrician to come and help me with this. We won't be using the shower until this is mended.
My friends from Trafford came over in the evening. We went to Yaki Soba and had a lovely meal together. Thanks girls! We also swapped secret santa presents, which was fun too.
I have a morning to myself, which is nice. I am going to cook mushrooms hollandaise (because I don't have any Spinach), and go for a walk in the sun. We have a beautiful frosty morning. All the cars are covered in a thick frost.
Have a good weekend
lots of love
