Auroculture

Went and saw Auroculture today as she is rather tied to her flat with a broken wrist.  Had a lovely conversation.

For the first time in quite a while I felt some energy inside me.  I will enjoy it while I have it and try not to worry too much about where it comes from or how long it will stay!

Flat day

Felt very uninspired today and couldn’t think of any picture that I wanted to create or even take a photo.

So I asked Emma to send me a picture.  Here is Sam getting over a day in the nursery.  Its quite hot for them at the moment so Sam is having a long drink and sitting quietly.

Going nowhere

Had a very quiet day today.  No watering needed because of the rain and few people around to talk to.

I feel like I am going nowhere.  I’m doing things and talking to people but there seems to be very little purpose to what I am doing.

Fierce rain

Had a rainy squall just after lunch that seemed to blow out of nowhere.  Which was followed a bit later by a thunderstorm. Seems like the summer rains may have arrived.

Have felt rather flat today.

Elsie

I think this is a lovely portrait of Elsie at less than one week old.  Photo taken by Uncle Dennis who with Auntie Sue visited the family yesterday and posted this picture on Facebook.

At least I didn’t delete this picture by mistake.  Which is what I did with 40 or so photos that I took this morning in Buddha Garden!  I’m still not quite sure what happened but deleted the pictures from the camera and then found that I hadn’t downloaded them. Oh I am daft as a brush……

Beautiful entrance

Selvam cut the grass in the guava patch yesterday.  So this  morning we cut the glyricidea growing around the trees.  Then we mulched the trees with green glyricidea leaves and topped them with brown leaves.

I am so pleased with how it looks!  Very tidy and cared for and the first thing you see when you come into Buddha Garden.

Hot

Another very hot day when I felt dehydrated this afternoon.  In fact I often feel I cannot drink sufficient water to hydrate myself properly!  However much I drink it never seems enough.

Today we opened our first jackfruit.  One was a bit over ripe, but the other was perfect for distribution.  We gave it to Pierre who will turn it into dried jackfruit.

This is a hot season fruit so feeling hot is all part of eating it.
