Light



I've come back to the most beautiful weather in Portugal and the sunrise was so bright this morning that I thought I'd left a light on all night. The skies are wide and blue with a feeling of space that I was starting to miss in the UK.
Before leaving, I went to my graduation at Lancaster, which was great fun. I wasn't quite the oldest, but getting there. I had to tell myself not to feel foolish. Anyway I enjoyed the whole thing, especially catching up with my tutor group who I'd only met at summer school. We've built up a great rapport over the past two years and can talk writing for hours.
My notebooks are bursting with ideas and so is my brain but they're going to have to stay on the back burner until after Christmas. I like working that way as I'm a slow writer and love thinking time, eventually getting everything onto paper in some sort of order. I couldn't cope without notebooks and take them everywhere.
I'm now going to decorate the tree and see if I can stop it wobbling... and will the lights work this year?
