Michele has been ill with a really nasty cold. It’s always a tad scary when she’s ill because asthma makes it potentially serious. But she’s getting better! While she’s been ill I’ve been snagging a ride into work with a neighbour who coincidently works in the building next to mine…10 miles a way from where we live.

Last night Michele went to bed early to fight off the lurgy and I ended up playing cards with Tim and Bob (guy that lives over the road) on Tim’s porch. Drinking wine, chatting, and playing Rummy in the balmy summer evenings is something I could learn to love.

Tonight Michele was well enough to make some of her awesome Calzones which we ate whilst watching Peep Show, and whilst drinking wine with a little Leo standing by. He’s currently preening himself on my shoulder.

Good night!
