Still at it


70 years old and a cat plays better than me.  I am completely hopeless and don't understand a thing.  I have absolutely no natural feel for music.  I don't know why I persevere, except to give myself a hard time.

I do more and more online jigsaws these days as they don't require any brainpower at all, and now and then I have a go at sudoku - I kid myself that I can get from easy to medium, but of course I can't!!!! - and all I do is get frustrated.  Then I have a go at the daily 'quick' crossword in the paper, which takes me at least four hours, even with the thesaurus.  I usually end up going to bed with the sulks and listen to the BBC.

Where is the snow, you ask, Winifred.  Just as you've been having a hot summer, we've been having a warm winter.  I even look lovingly at the pool each day as I scoop out the leaves and sometimes wish I'd accidentally fall in.
