If I had ever lived in a large house.
I would have loved to have a house keeper .
She would be one of those long suffering , loyal cinematic type of house keepers….wise cracking, opinionated and always there….with a pithy comment, a gentle smile and bowl of soup.
Think Miranda Hobbs’ Magna in Sex and The City….. Arthur Bach’s Hobson in Arthur or Karen Walker’s Rosario in Will and Grace.
Mine will be a Rosemary Harris lookalike whose always unseen husband will be keeping the garden up to standard . They live in and never had any children.
We’ve never had a serious heartfelt conversation
We’ve never had to.
Tomorrow I’ve set aside 2 strict hours
I’ve completed my college work, I’ve caught up with my finances, I’ve done my online training for work ….so this is 120 minutes to sit with a coffee and write old fashioned letters to a few old friends I’ve not previously made time for.
And so I will take the dogs for a long walk, feed them and set them up to sleep in the kitchen then I will drive to Chester to sit in the Storyhouse to do some proper, unhurried letter writing with my coffee.
My old friends deserve this
I deserve this too
I’ll go to Chester to stop real life intervening
