Wood's adventures

By Pippilongstock

A very literal blip

and slightly lazy.

Today's challenge is light. And this our living room light. I feel quite guilty about this lampshade. We used to have a very funky shade/light, which was the first thing Ad treated himself too when he first bought the house. I am not sure he had money for more than bread and milk back then, but he had his beautiful light. In fact one day he told me that he thought it was his favourite thing the house (inanimate of course!). That same day we ordered Sky Sports, so we could spend the night on the sofa bed and watch the ashes from Austrailia. In my excitement I flung one of the cushions off the sofa and was greeted by a shower of glass. I had broken his favourite thing. No chance of fixing or replacing and we spent a long time (a very long time) with a half broken light hanging precariously, until it was replaced with this still quite nice, but very much not the same lamp. 16 months on I still feel the guilt.

Anyway, this blip was almost a loaf of bread with the title "light of my life" - feeling very spoilt tonight - Ad text as I was working late asking for dinner suggestions, I replied suggesting some kind of bolognaise meat mixture with bread, expecting that he would buy some bread on his way home. Oh no, there was home made freshly baked, not even from the bread maker, bread on top of the oven when I walked in at nearly 9pm. Yes, I know how lucky I am.
