Rainy
morning, Fahrenheit 52 1/2° at 10 1/4 – Breakfast at 10 20/..
To
11 5/.., reading German all the while – Fair by this time (11 5/..) and the sun
endeavoring to get out –
Went
out walking at 11 20/.. my usual walk to the 1st barrier on the Roskilde road –
Very windy and in the face going –
Back
at 2 5/.. – Dressed – My foot a little blistered again – How is it – They
perpetually blister now when I walk as far as 4 or 5 miles – whatever shoes
and stockings I have on –
At
my desk at 2 50/.. and feeling very sleepy – I find both my servants are
fatter since being here, and none of us, I suspect, the more on the alert
for it –
M.
de Hagemann called for 1/2 hour at 4 1/4 to tell me he had called on Miss
Dÿring (During) at 12 (She had called at his house last night but was not admitted)
and Miss Gall’s apartment was to be 50 species a month – Some difficulty about
having the use of the crockery, but Miss Dÿring took upon herself to promise this,
and to put up curtains and put down a carpet on the salon – The proprietor of
the house had thought she would take 25 species a month –
Miss
Dÿring agreed the price was very dear, but she herself had nothing to do with
it, and of course nobody can say anything – Said I would think about it – M. de
H- said nobody could advise – I must
judge for myself – Said I could do that – I had only now to see how I could
manage about living from a restauration –
Would
go this evening and ask Mrs. Hage – this he seemed to think a good plan – might
have the restaurateur at her house to speak to – at last he said Fucigny in the
Oestergade and Petto in the great square were the 2 best and would [be] equidistant
from me –
Dinner
at 5 – Before and after at German with several naps over it – Trying 1st time
to turn back my English translation into German and managed better than I
expected, above 2 pages – on 2nd thoughts, staid at home this evening – Will
think about Mrs. Hage in the morning and ask Christiani?
Rainy
till 11 a.m., fair while I was out – Rain about 2 1/2 – Afterwards showery and
rainy, windy, stormy evening –
Had
Eugénie at 10 – then at German till 11 35/.. --
