Spent the morning in the garden instead of the van and discovered that pulling weeds uses a completely different collection of muscles from climbing a lift-pit ladder. I was warm enough to take my jumper off before breakfast, with soil on both knees and the lurcher lying across the patch I had just cleared. Very helpful assistant. By lunchtime my hands had that pleasant tired feeling where holding a mug is enough work. My husband offered to finish the last corner and I said no because I wanted the satisfaction of seeing it done, then left the last corner anyway when our daughter came out with sandwiches. There were better things to hold than weeds.

tugas sendiri belum selesai tapi tadi malah benerin tampilan web bengkel, padahal pemiliknya nggak minta dan halaman itu sudah jalan. rasanya lebih enak mengerjakan hal yang aku tahu caranya daripada buka soal kuliah yang bikin bingung. baru sadar setelah satu jam ngatur warna tombol. bukan rajin, rek, ini kabur pakai alasan kerja. kututup tab bengkel terus baca soal pertama pelan-pelan, ternyata yang nggak paham cuma bagian inputnya, bukan seluruh tugas seperti yang dari tadi kubayangkan. nanya teman satu hal itu dan dapat jawaban. masih harus kerjakan sisanya, belum mendadak jadi mahasiswa teladan, tapi setidaknya sekarang tahu mana yang belum bisa.

kate sent a video of our boy trying to kick a footy and he kept looking off camera for someone to watch. she was watching obviously, she was filming the bloody thing. still got to me. i watched it three times in my room and then couldn't think of much to say when they rang because he'd moved on to telling me about some game. i wanted to hear more about the kicking but didn't want to make him do the whole afternoon again for my benefit. felt pretty flat after the call. the bloke next door asked if i was coming down to eat and i nearly said no, then went anyway. didn't feel like sitting there with the phone waiting for another video.

I'm sewing a cushion cover from one of Mum's old tea towels, which seemed straightforward until I started trying to keep every bit of the picture visible. If I centre the town name, the little church gets cut off, and if I keep the church the name disappears round the side. Now there's a whole tourism committee on my sewing table. Could add plain fabric either side, I've got plenty, but then it's a much bigger cushion than anybody needs. Craig says just hang the towel back up. Helpful man. I might leave this one whole and practise with the boring one from our last motel stop.

В детективе опять выдала виновного слишком аккуратная подробность. Автор зачем-то сообщил то, что остальные герои знать не могли, и я сразу зацепилась. Теперь читаю дальше и проверяю свою догадку, вместо того чтобы следить за всей историей. На наблюдениях так нельзя, сначала решил, потом подобрал показания. Интересно, почему с книгой мне это нравится. Наверное, потому что можно ошибиться без исправления журнала и объяснений начальнице. Муж спросил, стоит ли ему читать после меня. Сказала, стоит, я ведь ещё могу быть неправа. Но имя подозреваемого всё равно записала на отдельном листке, чтобы потом не менять версию задним числом.

My wife asked me to choose the cloth she should wear on Sunday, and when I said either one would be good she brought them both closer and waited. I chose the blue because I remember it on her at our daughter's visit. She said that was the one she preferred also. It was a small thing, but I was pleased she had asked again instead of deciding without me. I wanted to tell her she looked well in it. The words became a remark about the way the cloth hangs. She smiled nevertheless and folded the other one away. I have been remembering that smile while writing this, by His grace.

I corrected my eldest's way of arranging the sitting room and she asked whether we were expecting hotel guests. Cheeky, yes, but I have been thinking about it. She had put the chairs where she and her siblings could sit together, and I moved them because the room looked untidy to me. Nobody was inconvenienced until I arrived with an inspection. At work I can explain every standard; at home sometimes the explanation is only that I prefer it so. I am not surrendering the whole house, let us be clear. But I left the chairs as they were this evening, and when I sat down with them I could see the television perfectly well.

漬物の樽を小さいのに替えるか考えてる。今の量だと自分だけでは食べきれず娘に持たせることになる。あっちにも冷蔵庫の都合があると言われた。大きい樽で少なく漬ければいいと思ったが重石が合わない。物置を見たら母が使ってた小さいのがあった。洗って使えるか確認する。新しく買う前に探せば大抵何かある家だ。蓋だけ別の所にあって見つけるのに時間がかかった。片付けたのは自分。誰にも文句は言えない。今日は樽を出した所まで。夜勤前に全部やるつもりはない。

Une cliente cherchait le nom d'un fruit et l'a décrit avec ses mains, en ouvrant les doigts comme pour montrer sa taille. Je l'ai comprise avant de trouver le mot moi aussi. J'y pensais ce soir en écrivant, à tout ce qu'on arrive à dire sans avoir le bon vocabulaire au bon moment. Dans mes cahiers je remplace parfois un mot trois fois, alors qu'à la caisse un geste suffit. Ce n'est pas la même chose, bien sûr. Mais j'ai relu une page où je voulais raconter la fatigue d'une femme et j'avais surtout écrit des explications. Je me souvenais pourtant très bien de la manière dont elle avait posé son sac, sans réussir à le lâcher tout de suite.

Mon père m'a demandé au téléphone si le bulletin de juin était paru, puis il a ajouté qu'il ne l'avait pas reçu. Il ne m'a pas demandé ce que j'avais dessiné, ni si j'étais satisfait ; simplement, il manquait un exemplaire dans sa chemise. J'en ai été touché au point de lui répondre quelque chose de parfaitement administratif sur l'envoi. À soixante-quatre ans, j'aurais pu faire mieux. L'infirmière, à qui j'ai raconté l'affaire pendant le dîner, m'a demandé pourquoi je souriais en me traitant d'imbécile. Parce que je souriais, apparemment. J'ai préparé l'enveloppe avec deux exemplaires, sans raison raisonnable.
