One very Special Moment…
Everything is finally beginning to look a lot better around here!
Just a few more tweaks, and our site is good to go. Believe it or not, I have been making headway with my latest story, Swan Song, too. This is wonderful, considering the amount of problems we have had to wade through.
My sojourn (is that the right word?) to the office at night has turned out better than I thought it would. Although I shouldn’t really be surprised, for I love being in my office, so 24/7 isn’t a problem. It’s the one room in our house where I can always find peace.
Yesterday, the temperature rose to a very comfortable level, and it turned out to be a lovely sunny day. I noticed the bird feeders were empty, so I wandered down the garden to fill them up. It was good to be outside without freezing my fingers and toes, and everything seems to be waking up out there.
As I was filling up the feeders with those popular fat balls, the branches above my head were alive with movement and I realised I had company. Something was watching me, obviously waiting for their lunch.
“Wait a minute, I have nearly finished…” as I said this, I looked up into the beady black eyes of our regular visitor, the robin.
He was so close to me, nearer than an arm’s length, and we were looking at each other, eye to eye. I held my breath, not wanting to spoil such a magical moment.
We have had many special moments over the years, like whenever I dig, he’s there looking for worms. He often visits my bonsai and that is so lovely to watch.
I have been told it can’t be the same robin, but I like to think he is because he seems to know me very well!
Thanks to everyone for all your good wishes and encouragement. it is so good to be back to normal! 💖💖
