Off Centre

By RachelCarter

Restless

I couldn't get this cow parsley seed head to keep still in the wind this evening.

So I ripped its head off

:o)

...and took it down the hill to our house to photograph it in the more-sheltered garden instead.

I've had trouble keeping still, too, recently. I feel like I need change, a new focus, something to put my mind to. I guess the school holidays are forcing me to be more aware of the practical and the here and now and the day-to-day rather than absorbed in imaginative things.

I don't know... Maybe it's that, maybe it's stopping studying.

When we took the dog for a walk up the hill this evening I felt uninspired and suddenly out-of-love with my surroundings. Maybe it's sadness that summer is coming to end without its usual blasts, sizzles, and flashes of colour and adventure.

I'll stop rambling and watch Accused on BBC 1. I've been looking forward to watching some drama again. This is the British TV that I love.

Maybe I've just been missing creativity in my life recently.


(Five more days until my blip birthday!)
