Yesterday was another gorgeous, sunny day. After a dutiful trip to the gym, I went into the Covent Garden/Soho area to pick up some coffee from a favourite haunt where they stock interesting varieties, and then looked at some other chic/quirky shops.
My partner returned this evening after quite an extensive business trip, for part of which I had joined him and celebrated my birthday together in a super restaurant in Paris!! It was within walking distance of our appartment, so afterwards we had an atmospheric walk back in a still active night-time Paris. We also took in an exhibition over the course of the next 2 days and just generally drank in Paris's superb atmosphere and beauty.
Back to tonight, and we need to make plans for travels in the next few months - perhaps a trip taking in Boston & New York (part biz for partner but all leisure for me- as well as an opportunity to see some family there) and we are dying to get to Berlin with its re-found vibrancy and fabulous museums etc.... However a few other pieces of the jigsaw need to be put in place first.
So.... in the meantime I have started my self imposed anti-procastination policy ! i.e. get off your butt and get on with those plans and activities which have been slipping to the bottom of the pile for just too long... It's quite amazingly cathartic to be able to tick something off that wretched list, and the whole thing begins to have its own momentum.
