Today is the day when all us people out there, say enough is enough, and have a have a National Day dedicated to our selves. Yes lets celebrate National Me Day. We deserve it. Lets get to know ourselves again today. Lets do it for us.Forget the 100 and 10 things that have been piling up, burn the To Do list, say "whatever" to the system. Today of all days, just listen to the Me voice that says " You deserve a Me day"
Well, I thought about this, I thought about that; deep into contemplation considering the relative merits of life, the universe and my top priority of whether to go for another cup of tea with a custard cream, when a package noisly landed on the mat. It was a package containing a book. Some kind soul had passed a book to us as part of National Book Night. " All quiet on the Western Front" I have never read this book, but I shall read it. I hear its quite a famous book and quite a deep book too. Needs a long train journey to do it proper justice, methinks.
Its strange but when I look back now on my Me day, I acheived more of the jobs I had put off for ages. I finally replaced a broken floorboard in the living room, I finally put rubber feet on that "dangerous" stool in the kitchen, I finally got the right driver for the printer loaded and on the list went.
Strange thing is I really enjoyed myself getting all these tasks done. An unfamilar feeling of acheivement came over me.
Lets all dunk an custard creme and celebrate National Me Day!
