Early blip. 7.30 a.m.

I had a cup of tea about 4.00 a.m. as I’d got used to waking when I heard any of the children awake. I took a small flask to bed each night they were here so I didn’t come down to the kitchen.
When I woke again in the silence I’m now making my usual first coffee of the day.
The mornings are noticeably lighter now.
My beautiful pink cactus has gone on flowering unconcerned, alongside the orchid, who has more buds just about to open.
So begins Sunday, the first day of a new week.
Church Livestream at 10.30am later.
