The Number One Bestseller!! and a Flare Up

Col just bought me back a book from the Book Exchange that he walks past on his various trips to the Clinic. I sent him off with a Morse book, and he returned with something called The Secret Keeper, by Kate Morton.

Like every single book published these days it has the words "Number One Bestseller" emblazoned on its front  Every book except my books that is, which is why a note of envy may pervade this blog. Though hopefully I will have got over it by the next paragraph.

I might just post another of my book covers to prove the point though.  Do you see "Number One Bestseller" anywhere on that cover?  If you do, its more than I can.

Anyway, I am so grateful to be in print, properly. And with such lovely covers for my books.  And at my age, I don't think I am up for the whole red carpet bit.

Tuesday was quite busy - for me, these days.  I did three different types of Not Home letters for those who are going out on the door to door work.  And I went through our study material for Wednesday, which is about prayer. And the study on Wednesday went well. Our student says she looks forward to seeing us. And of course it does all three of us good to be able to spend an hour studying the Inspired Word.

The Captain left very early for The Field, with his metal detector and sandwiches - and is hopefully having a wonderful treasure hunt even as I type.  And Bea and Co are coming for a visit next month.

My right shoulder is still bad - wakes me up at least once a night - and I have left a message with Rheumatology asking if the results of the Scan are in yet  - and this evening my right knee has decided to join in.  Very very painful and swollen.   I did have a "busy" morning in that I did the washing, made an apple crumble, and made some veggie and lentil soup.  And maybe that moderate amount of movement has been too much.

Col was at The Field all day, with the lads. I listened out for the clanking of chests full of gold coins as he drove back home - but no clanking, no chests, no treasure. He had a good day out though.

We have had two sea frets today - one in the morning and one late afternoon that is still hiding the sea from us.
