Light/Shade
It is a lovely morning, I note from my window ledge. The sun is curving its cheerful energy around the trees on the green and the birds are singing. Today will be a beautiful day, I know these things. I have to report we have a full complement of Tump Cottage snowdrops in the garden, and a few crocuses (I queried this with him, but he assures me this is the correct plural form of crocus), but other than that no sign of spring flowers, the daffys (this is not the correct plural form, but we can’t let him win every time) are still pushing their way through. All I have to do is keep my paws off em, she says, they are coming along nicely.
Today as you know is a long day for him; Thursday is his get through as best you can day. For us it is totally different, today I will sit on the window ledge for long periods. Today we will join the other lot; the ones that have been stuck in the canyon for weeks and have been a trifle boring. Why does she have to add romance and so spoil a perfectly good tale one asks? However, I have news; they are out of the canyon and are now lost in a mountain’s cavernous maze. It is quite amazing the trials she can conjure up for these poor persons, still they have a dog with them so they will be fine I am sure. What has happened to the super witch mentioned a couple of weeks ago? Well she is still fantastic, really ghastly, alarming, appalling, revolting and unspeakable in a fascinating way. We finished that chapter in fine style at the weekend, it was great fun… Although somewhere along the line, probably on a rewrite, she will realise that persons are not all bad; they all have a redeeming feature. Don’t they? Yes I am sure, there must be light along with shade, A363 said that somewhere.
I am of course
