Goodnight friends! The sky cleared beautifully overnight. A starkly empty azure morning, and even as clouds gathered again they were tossed and torn ragged and scraped thin by wind and heat. All of a sudden the air is dry and warm, apprqoching 23°c, mud already thickened and a little springy. Forget-me-nots spread in pointilist blue blankets, and bluebells droop beside woodland paths.

Not quite recovered even from a very brief bout of exercise yesterday, took a long time for the heat of the day to soften the stubborn chill of pain in my limbs. Eventually I enlivened, and managed to do quite a lot of drawing, and take a long slow lingering afternoon walk.

May we find a sense of focus and purpose in our lives today!
