A Quiet Sunday of Remembrance and Rest

I woke up around 7:30, got up, and went downstairs. I headed out to the garden to cut back the rose bushes—they needed doing this time of year. After that, I made some coffee and sat downstairs, going through some emails.

Kathy got up, and I asked if she’d like to go to the remembrance service at Cranford War Memorial. She said she would, and we had some coffee together, got ourselves dressed, and went to the service. It only lasted a few minutes. 

After that, we walked down to have a nice breakfast. I had an English-style breakfast—bacon, sausage, eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, baked beans, toast. Kathy had an omelette with some salad, and we both had another coffee.

We went into the Polish store and got bread, eggs, ham, and cheese for sandwiches during the week, then walked home and got warm. We stayed indoors for the rest of the day.

In the afternoon, I tidied up some files on the computer and read a few blogs while Kathy watched videos on her phone. 

Kathy cooked some buffalo wings with salad for dinner. We sat in the front room and just relaxed until around 8 o’clock, when I decided to go upstairs, lie down, and read. I was reading a book by Mike Chudley about photography before I drifted off to sleep.

The relaxing afternoon indoors was the part I’d most want to remember—a calm, restful heart to the day.
