this afternoon


 

this afternoon
the kids were out
at my sisters.
after my meeting
in a tidy house
{visitors are always a good
excuse
to tidy
my house}.
a quiet house
work to be done
doing it
slowly
slowly
and thinking
and planning
and writing.

i take a moment
to sit
on the back
verandah


******************************
i wrote more than a week ago - a life time ago.
the house is quiet. kids at their grandparents (sam's parents) for the day. while i do paperwork and tax and boring things like that.
i eat polenta for lunch, with some things thrown in
exactly the way i like to cook when i'm at home on my own
experimental
no-one to fuss or turn their nose up
one pot
for ease of cleaning.

***************************
have a look over here, at these fantastic doorstops. she may even be making some, or something similar at least, for our December markets.

*these are a random assortment of photos, taken a while ago (Sept) at a friend's beautiful house in the forest. they are making me happy right now, a quietness.
still-life.

enjoy your weekend my friends. xxx
