Not much doing

[flemmings]

It may be Midsummer's Eve but it's pretty dark at 9:15. Can't believe that 25 years ago I was painting porch rails at this hour. Then again, cloud and rain do that to an evening. A good night to be in with mysteries and tea.

It seems the patchy blisters on my right hand- but only the right hand- that appear every summer and vanish every fall, are eczema. Always thought that was bumpy and red and now I know better. Have heavy-duty cream to deal with it, or will have when I pick it up from the pharmacy.

Up too early for complicated reasons having to do with turning phone off so I wouldn't be woken by expected incoming text. Mothers are not allowed to sleep like human beings so yes, glad I wasn't woken at 7:15 and got that extra half-hour's sleep before Sense of Duty woke me instead.

On and off cool grey rain showers amid blistering sun in this oddest of changeable Junes. At least is not a heat wave June: a day or two and then revert to the autumnal mode: which I don't remember when the heat returns.

Mothers are not allowed to sleep like human beings - oh you know us mothers too well. *blearily rubs at sleepy eyes* - and it's only quarter to eleven ... in the morning! ^_^

Have a good evening now.

... and ugh ... I never lj on the phone ... it's just stupid. I don't know about tablets though.

I hope they fix that thing on the phone soon. I've never LJ'd on the phone, but I guess I should check it out.

I have known too many mothers in my time.

But LJ is what I go online for! Otherwise there's only Facebook and the Guardian.

I fancy they consider it a feature, not a bug.
