A new day dawning


This morning I was awake early and watched the new day dawning as I sat on the veranda with my first cup of tea of the day.

 

The sun started to light up the neighbouring houses...


.... and the tree next door


....as autumn makes its progress, beautifully

Procrastination

Today I was going to translate a load of comments from Papillon's blog (I don't know why I find them so difficult, but I do) and I had quite a number of apparently sensible posts composed in my head , not to mention transforming our little terrace garden into Villandry in miniature.


I did manage to trim the hedge but still don't understand how I consistently fail to achieve straight lines and sharp corners. Everything I do is rounded and fluffy. Everything in Villandry looks as though it has been done with a ruler, compass and set square.


So then we decided to barbecue the sardines we had bought. Excellent, and the cat enjoyed the one that dropped on the ground as a suitable reward for protecting us from wild lizards.


Then suddenly it was 6:00 pm and people were coming round for drinks, and then suddenly it was 9:00 pm and we were admiring the sunset.




Now it is 11:00 pm. Tomorrow is another day.
