Does Christmas ever fall on Tuesday?
Heatwave and fires further north, but here in the City by the Sea we seem to be in our own little magic weather kingdom. Storms. Lashing rain and howling winds. All that jazz. My shutters blew open three times last night.
It stopped raining long enough this morning to go to the farmers' market to get bread. Later, a trip to the shopping centre - my mother's yoga class is re-starting next week, and she wanted a new blanket for the resting period (she had a blanket, but during lockdown Alistair has claimed it). I haven't been to the shopping centre in the middle of the day for months. So many people. So many noises. So many lights.
I'm watching The Holiday, the film in which Kate Winslet and Cameron Diaz swap homes for Christmas. It's mindless fun, but Kate has just boarded a plane and they're all packed in their seats and breathing on each other and I feel so anxious watching it. I can't really blame a fourteen-year-old film for not considering that people might watch it in a pandemic fourteen years later.
