It’s bitter down here in Hampshire, went outside to clear
the car of snow, it was frozen solid, so I cleared a bit until my hands set
like concrete and I was a feared they would break off if I did any more, so I
gave up and came in. My lovely wife made me a steaming mug of tea to bring the
circulation back but even that went cold, after the few minutes with my hands
wrapped round it, so I ‘Nuked’ it as the children would say, what ever did we
do without the microwave?
I settled down in the warmth of
my little room, put some light classics on the DVD in the computer and took out
my pencils and paper to do a bit of sketching. After about half an hour my eyes
started to close, listening to the lifeblood of my existence, warm and cosy,
doing what I had always in the past dreamed of doing in the busy life I have
had, at long last my retirement has been the peace I had hoped it would be,
doing the things that give me so much enjoyment.
Another little story has come to
mind that you all seem to be enjoying, going from the very kind emails I have
received, so I will endeavour to complete it tonight and post it tomorrow if I
finish it. In the meantime the unfinished efforts of today that needs a bit
more time, I don’t know where it is because its just out of that furry muddle
up in the recesses of the few grey cells left.
Thanks for dropping by.
