March 13, 2010

Dearest Diary,

I was quite distraught to find I'd woken this morning far earlier than usual and was unable to fall back to sleep. However, it was a perfect opportunity for a brisk turn about the estate with Lady Pigeon. We found the recreation to be most invigourating. The chief of the afternoon I spent in the company of books. However the evening proved to be most delightful.

As I remitted to you yesterday, tonight was the ball at the Regency. There were many families who attended and many stately court dances were performed. I was even able to partake in a few. I must say that one who engages in such dancing must find their waistlines to be diminishing furiously. I have not been quite so exhausted in some time. It was immensely enjoyable, however, and I do hope that another ball might come again soon. As for the services tomorrow, it appears they are to arrive an hour earlier than usual. Many thanks to the friends who reminded me of such this evening.

With that in mind, I had better retire for the night. I'll return to you on the morrow...
