one of the first things I saw this morning out the front window was a robin filling it’s beak with old alyssum bits…  it gathered up a huge amount and then flew off… obviously in the process of building a lovely nest…

robin gathering nesting materials…

made me think a bit about my nest and how it feels rather empty…

later, when I was driving to physio, I was feeling a little sorry for myself… wishing that George was with me, to look after me…

was thinking how he would have enjoyed making sure that I did the exercises prescribed by Tori… today’s included a tennis ball to roll around on my hip…

realizing there are fourteen days to my Alaska cruise and I still haven’t read all the information that arrived in yesterday’s mail… and I need to start checking the weather along the coast to see what it is like as the days get closer…

beautiful night, with the new moon and lots of stars when I was just out in the hot tub… will see what tomorrow brings…
