miscellany

• The local town post office now closes at 1 p.m. on a Saturday. I am quietly horrified. (Took the giant parcel to one of the corner-shops-and-post-offices, which was open later today.)
• We also got a pile of stuff out of the house and to a charity shop in the same trip (plus some food bank donations).
• A made pancakes for breakfast, and then replaced the screen protector on my phone. (I handed him my phone for reasons; he noticed how appallingly unresponsive the touch screen was; I confessed I'd been scared of replacing the screen protector both because I didn't trust myself to get it off without damaging the underlying actual screen and because I was scared the actual screen was also damaged; he took a deep breath and Fixed It.)
• Asking A for the ridiculously indulgent Alex-coloured notebook cover was 100% the correct thing to do -- I keep looking at it and grinning.
