Of all the easy pleasures ready for us in our houses, my favorite is sleeping on newly washed sheets which were dried within the solar. Final night time I drifted off right into a deep sleep, cuddled by heat sheets smelling of sunshine. Bliss! Generally these small easy pleasures are what preserve you happening exhausting days. Having the capability and consciousness to plan your days, your finances and to maintain your self centered in your objectives. With the ability to sit all the way down to a great meal cooked from scratch, or to defrost one out of your stash of meals that you simply preserve precisely for such a day. Having fun with what you’ve got proper there in your house and dealing to a routine and rhythm that carries you thru every day with out having to assume what comes subsequent. They’re among the easy pleasures I’ve constructed into my life.
I am unable to say I’ve had a busy couple of weeks. I labored steadily on decluttering, began constructing a flower backyard on the entrance verandah, I cooked and cleaned and watched YouTube. I clipped Gracie and eliminated a big bucket stuffed with her thick black fur. However on the finish of the clipping, I received drained and so did she so I did not get round to doing her head or legs. Once I have a look at her legs now she’s received a form of poodle minimize – easy physique with puff balls on her legs and head. LOL. I hope to complete the job tomorrow and produce again a extra balanced look.
Right here she is! Gracie together with her French poodle minimize. Eek!
Like the remainder of you, I have been horrified by the wild fires in America and Europe and the home fires in London. Seeing household houses and wild habitats burn is heartbreaking. All these years of constructing a home and creating a house – for people and wildlife, gone. It should be the strongest reminder to us all that now we have to alter the best way we stay or these climate extremes will turn out to be a part of our “regular” world. All of us have to begin at dwelling, doing what we are able to to cease spending, chopping down on the usage of plastics, saving water and vitality and simplifying all the pieces we are able to whereas we nonetheless stay a great life. It may be achieved.
I hope you are nicely and protected. Covid is an enormous downside once more in Australia so I have been staying at dwelling and carrying a masks after I exit. Take care. xx
