It comes and goes.and fills me when I'm empty.

The sky had an ethereal quality about it tonight. 

There was a light orange glow over everything and made the whole town look sparkly, but not quite real. 

Boy left for Costa Rica Last night, and so we have sad Jess with us just now.  She's fine actually - I totally understand her bereftness.   Boy is such a loud, gigantic presence in our lifes, when he isn't here it is a bit strange.  

More space in the house, less noise. 

I'm  used to it now. 

 I thought that maybe the last time Tooli left,  

They come and they go, but they always come back.  

Which is nice. 

And it's only a week.  And then he'll be back.  

With his tales of Costa Rica  - whch apparently is the happiest place on earth, and the regular breakfast is rice and beans. 

He's going to come home farting more than normal.
