I fail at mindfulness

Bookfast lasted about as long as one might expect ie I finished my Mary Russell on Monday evening, turned to the book pile, couldn't face Ackroyd, couldn't face Chatwin, couldn't face anything serious when it's hot and muggy and they're going to open up my eye in two weeks Aaaaaaunghhh, and Tuesday morning bought the next Mary Russell mystery. Which was unreadable. So went to library and got the Russell with all the back story in it. Have been reading that in these latter blinded days. (I mean everyone is blinded, not just me. Allergies and pollens and humidity gives universal gunk in eyes. Mine is just compounded by contacts and cataracts.)

Next month. Maybe.

Sympathetic yow on the allergies. Have you anything like an air purifier down there? They work pretty well for us. I used to have a personal one I could carry around, but it gave up the ghost a while back.

A personal air purifier sounds nice. I have one in the bedroom but it's noisy and I suspect not that efficient. The real problem in any case is wearing contacts in the daytime when the eyes are both dry and gunky, and only autumn solves that one. Though saline helps.
