Goodnight friends! Cooler again, though with less of a sharp breeze on faintly perfumed air and beneath a quiet, whitish sky 13°c feels curiously neutral. No shadows, birdsong seeming softened by the low clouds. Everything muted except the great burgeoning blushes of colour from the flowers, from miniscule yellow specks of lesser hop trefoil to the wild splashes of garden rhododendrons.
Lingering fatigue with very slow thinking, but definitely feeling a bit more energy. No great spikes or crashes, but able to pace things out and plod along, small bits of housework and pleasant, fairly purposeless doodling.
May we find space for moments of indulgence and delight in in our lives today!
