Tiredness, confusion

smokingbootOnward and all that.
Resetting, re thinking. I really should go out this evening, spark my muse with some hideous plays at the London Lovecraft festival,https://www.facebook.com/londonlovecraft/ but my aunt phoned me last night, upset and muddled. I think someone has offended her, she's a prickly old dear these days and it doesn't take much for her to take umbrage at someone's manners. Sometimes she believes strange stuff. It worries me because her brother developed Alzheimers and his last years were very hard, and of course my own mother's crazyland medals far outstrip everyone else's, though she's spritely as an antelope. Now my aunt may be worried about her pension after Brexit. She is asking me when I can go over to see her.
It may be that she is just lonely, or that she wants me to look at her pension papers. As far as I know, UK state pensions won't be affected by Brexit, though of course, dealings between Spanish govt agencies and UK ones might get weird. But I don't see why that would happen. Anyway, it's all guess work; by tonight she'll have forgotten she was freaked out yesterday.
Here I am trying to keep myself awake til the phone call.
