bluesaffron"What is real?" asked the Rabbit one day, when they were lying side by side near the nursery fender, before Nana came to tidy the room. "Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?""Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but really loves you, then you become Real.""Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit."Sometimes," said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt.""Does it happen all at once, like being wound up," he asked, "or bit by bit?""It doesn't happen all at once," said the Skin Horse. "You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand."

** I wasn't going to go for a walk today because it's pouring with rain and has been for hours and hours. I was relaxing on the sofa this morning with a nice cup of tea nearby, finishing off the nibb...

again..hot!!

** The sky is clear this morning and it's so incredibly hot, similar to a sauna. A real sauna is a nice place to be but you don't generally do much walking in them. There's a good chance fo...

the bard

** It's yet another hot day and is most likely going to stay this way for the next while. Last night, in an attempt to get organized, I cleared off the desks and gathered all the little bits of paper...

begin again

* Today began in a rainy way again but the temperature was pleasant enough so away I went for the usual stroll, with the large black umbrella to keep me dry. By the time I made it to the lake, things...

summertime slow

* Today started off the way I felt yesterday, with dark skies overhead. An active thunderstorm woke me up that with lots of lightning and buckets of rain. As I sat on the porch with a cup o...

* Today is an absolutely beautiful day, not too warm with a bit of a breeze and sunshine as far as the eye can see.  There were loons calling out. I could hear them but couldn't see them. I imag...

** That's such an unsettling feeling to see everything disappear that way in a blink, after writing for an hour or so. I have a fresh cup of tea now and will start at the top, with feeling,...

** This morning was the foggiest and blusteriest time to go for a walk before seven o'clock.  Once again the clammy dampness, feeling hot and cold at the same time is how it all ended ...
