Minor miracles

Our days are full of little miracles we pay no attention to...all those bodily processes that are functioning just fine, infrastructure and organisation fit for purpose, intentions panning out as planned. During the last twenty four hours or so I've been giving thanks for some of these small scale wonders of the world...

*Dropping my specs into half a cup tea without damaging the specs or splashing the surrounding area

*Dropping a carton of milk upside down and a quarter full but with the lid tight enough on that it didn't explode or spill. It also landed in a shopping bag hanging on the side of a chair so I didn't have to bend all the way down to the floor to pick it up!

*Sunshine warm enough to have the windows wide open...and a rain shower that fell straight down!

*All the blues in the sky and sea before sunset tinged them pinkish

*Guessing successfully what was what in the freezer so I've been able to have a home cooked meal even tho not cooked from scratch today 

*Finally finishing unpacking and also getting some ironing done (plus complete silence on the terrace so that I could sleep off some of the exhaustion that ensued)

***and that last week I was somewhere very different doing something very different indeed!
