Saturday was one of those cold, windy winter days that keeps everybody inside. Unfortunately, days like these are all too common this time of year. They have a cumulative effect so that by now, at the end of February, cabin fever has set in and we all get quite irritable in each other’s company when we are forced to spend a Saturday or Sunday inside. Cian was running a bit of a temperature so even a trip to the local shopping centre was out of the question.
(An aside: Cian had developed a rather bizarre interest in washing machines ever since we bought a new one last autumn. Every time we head down to the local shopping centre he insists on going to the Electrical Appliance store and heading straight for the washing machine section. It’s not all bad though, as when he has exhausted all the entertainment possibilities an unplugged and inert Panasonic dual washing machine and tumble dryer has to offer, he allows Daddy to go and sit in the massage chairs for five minutes).
Three months of winter and even Sanae begins to resemble Jack Nicholson’s character in the film ‘The Shining’.
