Bought a few bulky stuff, thinking about the preparation for my friend's stay. Needed them, any way, so it's not a waste of money. While walking through a car-park, I thought I might have seen my sister-in-law a few yards away. Not sure, because the sunshine was very bright in my eyes and I couldn't be bothered to stare at the woman.
Did some not-everyday cleaning such as washing lampshades and cleaning blinds. Surprised with myself not panicking yet, even though there are more thing to do. I can even read a book without getting nervous!! Maybe because I know that she won't come here to judge me/my house and also because I experienced a hysterical panicking before my parents came here in January. There's nothing to scare me nowadays. (Well, not as many as there used to be, I mean.)
Read a bit more of The Lord of the Rings. Now Théoden is off to Isengard with his men and some of the Company. It's come to the stage that I must read it through. Well, it's not a struggle, actually. It's a joy to disappear into the Middle-earth when I'm alone in the living room
I read a bit of the story of Aragorn and Arwen in the appendix. I stopped when it mentioned that he was 49 years old and got involved with the Ring stuff, because I thought that I might spoil the fun later on in the main story. It's been a long long time since I read any kind of love story. The couple somehow reminded me of Peer Gynt and Solveig. I wish I could have somebody special one day, whom I could put my entire faith in whatever happens.. Well, the first thing I should do is to become as decent as Arwen and Solveig, I guess. Bloody hard.
