eve

2003-12-24

Christmas Eve has arrived. It is another one of those outrageously beautiful summer days: gentle breezes, an impossibly vast blue sky that seems within touching range, and everywhere, the abiding rays of the midday sun. A pair of frolicking blackbirds has made a habitat out of the front garden. They can be heard from beyond my window periodically kicking up dirt and detritus from the garden bed. We have become somewhat familiar neighbours recently....

Oh, today is too darn beautiful to be sitting here writing about it. I’m off to smell the roses...and eat some candy cane...and recline in the backyard.

Merry Christmas everyone!
