Very busy weekend and had a positive time throughout.

Friday night my sister and I worked really hard and sorting out my parents' bathrooms - we cleaned them within an inch of their lives and made everything look good. My parents are both quite frail and find it hard to bend down to clean etc. so I help them out whenever I can.

Saturday went to see a musical in a tiny new theatre in London - was brilliant as I'd been waiting for this particular show to come around for years. Finally got to see it on the last day of the run.
Then went to a concert hall in the evening for an orchestra concert which was really interesting; they played a very long innovative piece by a composer I'd never heard of. Nice to always discover new things.

Sunday's gig went well, and I was home by 6pm as it was an afternoon one. Got paid more than I thought too. My plan is to put most of my gig money on my credit card so by the time the house is sold I'll have very little or no debt at all. I don't have a huge balance on it but I like to pay it off asap even though I'm doing it early and don't need to!

My sister said again that she thinks what W has done is a waste. She said, "So it's only taken you 6 months to sort yourself out. It just seems so wasteful for her to give up and walk away when you've clearly improved yourself. I would understand if you had both gone to counselling for a bit, then you relapsed and didn't seem to care, because she'd say you need to do it alone. I don't understand why she wouldn't want to try."

Made me feel a bit better, but I just carried on GALing.
