All the good things about today...in the vicinity of my house...
All day....
I follow the sun around the sitting room as it floods in from different angles, different windows.
Mid morning....
I turn a chair towards the double doors onto the garden, sit with the sun on my face, my feet curled under me, listen to a Matt Kahn video about how to recover from fear and sadness..... he says you need to rest and sit and breathe. I manage it for a few minutes.
Lunch time....
I sit with the sun coming onto to my back through the side window and eat my bowl of soup.
Mid afternoon tea....
I sit on the sofa again with a dear friend who helps me choose a wood burner stove and we talk about slate hearths and oak beam mantles.
This evening...
The sun still slanting in though the front window I sit in the big armchair - I always think of it as Robin's chair - and talk on the phone to my sister.
And let the beauty of it all sink into my skin as I walk home thinking about supper.
