roses are red

Well these are, at least.

The day started with workmen on three floors and chaos everywhere. I escaped to N and G’s quiet house and worked in absolute silence. Sweet relief.

Home to mop repeatedly whilst Zeke and Daddy made “happy curry” which we ate in the garden. And then an evening watering an array of beautiful plants at Janet’s. I arrived at a magical point with sunlight streaming through various fragrant roses. Didn’t think to get a picture of that loveliness but took this as I left to show J her retirement rose in bloom.

Gratefuls:

1. N and G’s quiet house being offered as a work space;
2. Zeke talking to ingredients as he put them in the pan;
3. Sports day at school against a backdrop of hills - wish I could add a pic but it was impossible not to capture lots of kids’ faces. Eve’s sports day tomorrow so I’ll try again!
