I keep my blog as a personal record of what I'm up to, which might be seen as working towards "An elegant sufficiency, content, retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books, ease and alternate labour, useful life"

I'm certainly not there yet.  There is quite some way to go!

One of “those” posts

 

Generally speaking I’m a little ray of sunshine. 

Yes, really!

I think it’s fair to claim  my status as an optimist and I try hard to follow the little voice in my head (I think it’s my Mum) who says “Do it gracefully or don’t bother”.  As a result, I tend not to dwell on the negative, I try not to be critical and if something’s not quite right, I work on the principle that it surely wasn’t meant to be like that.

Or?

Yes, it’s hard to admire the basket, isn’t it?

 

Perhaps it’s because the builders have been drilling all morning?  Maybe the dreary weather has something to do with it?  Possibly the fact that I don’t seem to have had a moment to breathe since last Saturday has influenced my mood, but for sure, I’m ready for a little brightness and more than a little fun fun fun.

Hmm. How about escaping into a good book? I recommend The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie to brighten your spirits.

Or, begin imagining exactly who/what left that basket there... was it perhaps the Artichoke Girl Giantess that I admire so? no... she would have better taste than to carry that. Huge Easter Bunny? Perhaps, but only if there are chocolates in it. Hmm... Giant Red Riding Hood on her way to Grandma's? Nope, I know... it was actually brought there by 160 little mice who wanted someone to mail it for them because they were too short to reach the post office window and the post office staff refused to look at them.

hmmmmm...... your turn..
