Goodnight friends! Back to empty blazing skies again, contrails shining like needles on a vast blue blanket and a silver fivepence waxing moon. Wild garlic and cow parsley beginning to blossom, fresh constellations of little white stars in a spreading cosmos of green. Light beginning to shiver and break apart beneath the trees as canopies thicken, blackbirds rummaging among the nodding bluebells.

Felt encouraged and refreshed today, only a few passing spells of dizziness, no unusual malaise. Attempting once more to get back into the comfortable pendulum swing of my exercise routine, one of the focal points that’s stabilised and given shape to my days and weeks over the last few months. Worn out now but in what feels, so far, like a heathy way.

May we find around us and offer each other gentleness, love and kindness today!
