day two, retirement

27/8/09
It has been cloudy and windy today in Manchester.
As I said yesterday I planned to do an hour of simple yoga exercises and meditation. I started in good faith at 9 am. Yes, I know it is kind of late but if I still have to get up by alarm, what is the fun in being retired!
About halfway through the yoga, I suddenly remembered I had to ring the finance department to clear some discrepancies in calculations of my pension (between theirs and mine). As a good citizen it was my duty to alert them. Would I be so eager if my estimate was not higher! Thank god, I was not given that choice to test my morality.
Anyway I could not concentrate on my breathing and I had to abort from my lotus position and pick up the phone. It was answered by the now omnipresent machines giving zillions of options. Finally managed to get the attention of a Homo sapiens and the matter was amicably sorted out in only a fraction of time that I dreaded it would take.
Rest of the day passed quickly, it does when you have got a nice novel on your e-book. I finished almost half the book Last Theorem by Arthur C Clarke supplemented with lots of tea and food.
Saw a film on the box and watched the news. Now to bed, Good night.
