STRANGE...

... that's how I'm feeling right now.
I've had a few days of manic activity getting ready for our weekend guests - and now they've gone I feel really flat (apart from my stomach which is still very round following today's lunch!)
Seriously though it does feel a bit like the day after the party, if you know what I mean.
I can't settle to anything. I'm a bag of nerves because of a) tomorrow's footie match and b) the build up to leaving the girls next weekend.
In fact I really feel in limbo right now. I haven't got anything to do for a day or two AND I HATE THAT! I'm absolutely no good at all at doing nothing. The word 'relax' is NOT part of my vocabulary and I end up getting really edgy if I'm not putting myself under pressure to do SOMETHING.
I've written the information BOOK for Paul to use when he comes to stay. It's too soon to start cleaning the fridges and cupboards out - cos they'll just get messed up again. Nor can I really start thinking about what I'm going to take to NY because Charles and James will just laugh at me for being a trifle premature.
Talking about trifle - the rhubarb and custard one we had yesterday was gorgeous and will certainly be on the menu again. However there is still some left over, as well as apple pie, pavlova, raspberry 'stuff' and some creme brulees. This is all well and good except that I CAN'T EAT THEM as I'm still determined to lose the five pounds that I'll almost certainly put on while we're away, before we go, if you see what I mean.
Oh - must go - we're off to the park in Morpeth with the pups! Thank God - something to do!!
