Very brief Sunday update

[dolorosa_12]

I walked Mum down to her train to London a couple of hours ago, where she will return in advance of her flight back to Australia tomorrow. It's been a good visit, closed off with a meal out in Cambridge last night (which gave me some cooking ideas of my own), a final round of gardening — in which I picked half the apples off the tree and handed them down to her, while we were watched by a fearless and inquisitive robin — and afternoon coffees at my favourite bakery in town.

Other than that, it's been a lot of chores and Olympics. At some point, I'll have more than a little bit of spare time and energy, but that doesn't seem to be the case right now.
