Being at home

Hello.

I am in my flat. This is where I spend almost all of my time. I can count the time I spend out of the flat. Usually it's about 20 minutes a day. We get up at 730 - we usually set the alarms for 7 and then lie in and cuddle for a snooze. It's lovely. Kat gets showered and dressed and then we go and get breakfast. We sit at the table and eat a bowl of cereal and a piece of toast and a glass of fruit juice. Simple but everything we need. Then Kat goes to work.

I sit at home and try to fill my time. I read my emails and Facebook. I spend some time looking at my shares. Sometimes I read the bible. Then I get bored.

A new beginning!

Well hello there!

This is the first post on my blog! Hurrah! Yippee!

This is not a blog which will be updated regularly. It will not be very well written and will be quite poor grammar (you see). It won't be very interesting and there won't be anything on here that you won't have heard before!

Hopefully it will be clear, sensible and reasonable though; hopefully it will clear my head! There is quite a fog in there at the moment. I intend to write about things which are obvious - why?

Well, things are obvious when you know them. It's obvious to me that there is such a thing as gravity and that it pulls things downwards. It's obvious to you, and all educated people. But to uneducated people it is still just as obvious - but they don't realise it is obvious. As far as they're concerned it is just something else to take for granted. And that is fine. But there is a reason for things falling down, not just because they do because it's in their nature, but that they do because gravity exists and the earth has a large gravitational field. So when I write about obvious things, I'm doing it because you only realise things are obvious once they have been pointed out.

Magic tricks are obvious to the trickster and to those in the know. To everyone else they're magic.
