Goodnight friends! A change in a flash, sky scraped totally bare blue and the wide sharp flare of the sun swallowing a quarter of the sky. Frosted over in the early morning but 12°c in the warmth of the afternoon, ground already drying out, leaving worm casts crumbly and old grass withered to gold threads. Celandines all fragments of golden mirror, squills stained-glass blue, delicate little satellite dish leaves of petty spurge full of emerald fireworks as they unfold.

Muddled along okay at judo, but everything had felt a little vague and disjointed all day, so I didn’t put on a very good showing. My thinking and memory definitely the weakest link, maybe poor sleep getting to me.

May we deepen our bonds of companionship and mutual support today!
