But actually I don't want to talk about age.
I have started my project on attention and empathy. I think I have a structure. It feels like it could be rather big. But still. I could consider each section as a mini essay... maybe that's the way to do it.
What I have done is use Scrivener as a scrapbook for all the quotes from relevant papers. So I have everything in one place and can just go from tab to tab instead of opening new documents. But I am writing on a Word document. Maybe I really do need a second screen now.
The problem is that I have just invested in a foot massager. Turns out that they - well, it's not so much a massager as an EMS thing - can help with Restless Leg. Worth a go. I'm also going to have a reiki session. Mind you, I have a suspicion the theraplate helps - but I'd need to use it three times a day. Works out a lot cheaper to have my own foot thingummybob.
Ah the pleasures of getting old.
I wonder if I can stand the dog on the foot thingy? Apparently, it feels tingly or prickly so I fear he might object and it would be difficult to force his feet onto it.
There has been thunder. I look up and think of Thor striking his hammer. I think Odin does the lightning, but I'm not sure.
I am sad as I have run out of Vikings. I tried two other Viking shows, but they were shit. Happily there will be another season on The Last Kingdom, so I have that to look forward to. Vikings, let me repeat, are NOT dicks. And old Vikings are very, very cool.
Good luck with the foot thingie. p.s. Like the old rose, I have quite fetching freckles too!
