Goodnight friends! Pale and humid, just enough wind to break clouds into tumbling, shifting bubblewrap layers with keyholes of bright blue an gold between. Even a little exertion sets a fine frosting of sweat pricking at my lower back. Purple splashes of toadflax and bellflower and periwinkle, bright in flowerbeds and neglected corners.
Very hard to get going heavily exhausted and with aching over-tight musles reacting to the shock of starting to exericise again. Struggled to leave my bed til late in the afternoon. Thankfully my girlfriend joined me for a low key date and group video chat, and to help me cook and tidy in the evening.
May we find our sense of optimism and determination renewed today!
