It will be a while before I stop saying this and I think that's okay - I am really enjoying the gradually lighter mornings. I have particularly liked seeing the pastel gradients of night giving way to day this week.

After a night enough of not enough sleep I was feeling pretty tired. Thankfully, I had a day of little tasks rather than focused writing activity so it was bearable. Having had a fairly busy but lovely couple of weeks of socialising it was good just to flop a bit in the evening - watch some TV, make an easy dinner then sit with the girls knitting & nattering away.
