My mood is still low but the cause has definitely resolved itself as hormonal. I've just got to hope that it isn't too heavy or prolonged as I can do without the hormone therapy messing up my progress.

I did something really pleasant today, I drove out into the countryside and stopped at a little village of stone cottages, situated in the foothills of a small mountain range. There was a little church, a parish pump and water trough, a pretty village green, best of all the village institute building was open and there were home made cakes for sale. I bought a cake and a pot of tea and had them sitting outside on the village green. About a dozen other families were doing the same, it was all very peaceful and very english.
