It was inevitable. It had been dodgy for a while, so I wasn't massively surprised when the windscreen wiper went completely. The garage had said it'll cost around £500 to sort so I'd been waiting in case they could find a second hand one. Now it will have to just happen cos having a car I can drive is pretty important to me. It's only money and I'm just not thinking what else it could buy. I'm a bit worried about how long it might take to sort. I can get a train to some places and I can't do much til Monday so am just not going to worry.
Meanwhile feel very lucky to have a boyfriend who knows how to cheer me up by buying a children's film. We laughed our way through Despicable me 2, then I got to watch yet more Saturday night tv. I've never seen X factor before - it was a bit more collaborative than I anticipated. Then Jonathan Ross, and I realised one of the things I struggle with, is the way it's about "a star". The singer at the end was good, but the only one named. Had one of her saxophonists blown a note out of time it would have been spoiled, but they didn't get a mention. The world I want to live in values the person who cleans the studio toilets as much as the person who has celebrity status.
Will keep working towards bringing about that world today :) Hope whatever part you play today you are appreciated, and that you take chances to appreciate others too :)
