Last week diversion was supplied mostly by the world of French politics, voodoo dolls and all, while domestically the main event was the heating finally going on, and staying on. A couple of mild days early in the week were followed by a ten degree plunge in maximum temperature. The sunshine returned over the weekend, but temperatures stayed around the seasonal average. Can't claim we did a lot to take advantage of the nice weather. A walk in the morning sunshine on Saturday was cut short because of an over-optimistic clothing choice on the part of one of us. La bienheureuse went home while I went and bought some wood for a minor projet de bricolage.
Sunday I set about putting up a couple shelves, filling the apartment with sawdust in the process, while la bienheureuse caught up on some work, necessary because she's never in the office these days. Oh yes, she's off on her travels again this week, in Germany until Thursday. My first trip in a month comes up on Wednesday, a vitriolic local derby in prospect...
