Emerging

I was woken at dawn by distant rumbling thunder. Soon afterwards there were a couple of heavy showers, and then the sky cleared and it turned into a proper muggy summer’s day. Much more rain is forecast for tonight and tomorrow when the southerly arrives. And probably more thunder.

Despite the heat and my slightly decreased energy levels (thanks to the gut issue) Bean was due a walk during which she leapt into the creek as we passed. Here she is emerging again, just before she went completely bonkers, scuttling around the paddock at full tilt, then rolling on her back wagging her tail. She is a delight!

I made an appointment to see my lovely GP on Friday morning to make sure it really is IBS and nothing more sinister. I am of the age when bowel issues are taken very seriously here. I only realised when it was confirmed by email that it's a phone consultation. Due to the slow increase in Covid cases all appointments are now by phone unless we request otherwise. 

I don't mind: it saves me a trip into town, and I'm a good talker.
