TODAY IN MY LIFE
The start of two weeks without a washing machine as the motor gave out on our Bosch Maxx yesterday. Can't complain - it was a free gift from Christians Against Poverty and was second hand, and has given us two years of faithful service after being used nearly every day. After doing my research, I have gone for a BekoWM5100S .
Quality time for myself and with family today.

TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
The "accursed other job" has (second only to daughter!) always been the real acid test of my spirituality. Yesterday was one of the best days ever in terms of my attitude. This, coupled with my cool response to the discovery that our washing machine was screwed proves to myself I have made real gains in understanding.

TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
When fully concentrating, I no longer see my thoughts and feelings as "me" but as an experience as valid as any other. When I'm "on the ball", the number of thoughts per second decrease noticably. Distancing myself from mind/body chemistry in this way like learning anything takes practice. Actually maybe "disentangling" is a better word. It's been a long process - since embracing the concept in 2001 it's taken me 9 years to get to this point. I have a clear objective - to function as an entirely "non-local" "me" while this body/mind still lives. It's a "thing to experience" while I can.

THIS DAY IN WW2 (28.10.40)
In Athens... An Italian ultimatum is presented to the Greeks during the night. It amounts to a declaration of war.
In the Balkans... At dawn, before the ultimatum expires, the Italian forces in Albania begin to cross the border into Greece. Patras is bombed. General Prasca leads eight of the 10 Italian divisions in Albania in the advance. They attack along three lines with the main effort being in the center from the Dhrina and Vijose valleys. General Papagos, the Greek Command in Chief, has not deployed his main force close to the border to avoid giving any provocation to the Italians. He hopes to use 8 divisions with the possibility of reinforcements being brought from the troops watching the Bulgarian border. The greatest obstacle to the Italians for the first two or three days is the very bad weather which grounds their air support. The Italians have chose a very unwise time of the year for their attack.
In Italy... Hitler and Mussolini meet at Florence. Hitler conceals his anger at not being kept informed of the Italian plans and says that German troops are available if it is necessary to keep the British out of Greece and away from the Romanian oil.
In Vichy France... Laval become Foreign Minister of the Vichy government.
In the North Atlantic... U-32 completes the job and sinks the damaged Empress of Britain.

I've noticed that when you hit a certain size you get "bot followers" which muddies the true situation, as they're programmed to follow you then unfollow you after a certain amount of time.

TODAY'S AFFIRMATION
Today I will let go, relax and be open.
From Berlin... Goring issues orders to give priorities for the German night offensive against Britain. The priorities are firstly London, secondly aircraft factories and third industry in the Midlands and all air bases.
Over Britain... About 400 Luftwaffe bombers attack London by moonlight, dropping 530 tons of high explosive bombs, starting 900 major fires and seriously disrupting road and rail communications. Oxford Street is blocked by rubble; the BBC Broadcasting House is hit. About 400 are killed, 900 are injured and some 600 people are trapped in Balham Underground Station.
From Rome... The Italian War Council makes the final decision for an attack on Greece. Hitler is not to be told beforehand and instead is to be presented with a fait accompli. The Italians hope for the campaign to be over within two weeks. Operations will start at the end of the month.
Over Germany... The RAF conducts a nighttime raid on Kiel.
In the Mediterranean... The British submarine Rainbow engages the Italian submarine Enrico Toti (which was previously damaged and is unable to submerge) in a gun battle off the coast of Calabria. The Rainbow is sunk.

TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
