i am waiting to hear from work official too

we chats most weeks mostly about gardening
the treacherous holly

we bear the scars

so as you know most days come quiet
here
not much doing in the diary

then yesterday was all of it
together
more like we were used to

interesting that were were an are
i changed it for these are different
times

good at the garage; the mechanics with
longer hair looked lovely
we said so as we
threw the keys over the barrier
then walked home in the storm
sheltered under the tree when the phone
rang

chatted

watched the parent, two children all in waterproofs
playing by the river
throwing stones

making ripples

james

later he asked me the best bit of the day
&
it was mary phoning

day 95
he says i should keep counting
although we are all much the same
