The First Day of the Rest of My Life

I gave up the day job yesterday.

I am a free woman (who should now perhaps be entitled "Polly Pauper") until the day I die.

Perhaps I will blog every day. Extraordinary that this is what I have come to do before I even have some breakfast -- though I have been out to feed the birds.

THE CHIFF CHAFF IS HERE!

It might reach 21 C in Wiltshire today. That means that the swallows might come early, and that I will have to get those house martin boxes up in the eaves just asap. Scary job.

The resolutions are extensive: be downstairs by 7.00 every morning, go for an uphill walk every day. . . .

All I know is that I am going to be a much happier human.
