Terrarium
The day didn't start too well with the neighbours builder blocking the access road to our cottage and five others. He parked his Range Rover (white with a personalised number plate) for around 45 minutes and in order for me to leave for my day out I had to go and find him. The owner saw me coming and disappeared without eye contact and I 'lost it' and made it very clear how upset I was at the constant lack of consideration. I was furious.. I had to calm down before heading of on my journey and the fury kept rising back up over the 1.5 hour drive. I arrived before my friend and had taken time to compose a text to the no eye contact neighbour. As I had driven out of the driveway she had climbed into the car with the builder.. but had scuttled into the car without any apology or spoken word.. I felt better having told her how I felt.. and made it clear how rude and selfish I thought they were. I don't regret it and hope that the message has got through to them.
I had a lovely day meeting up with my old friend and we had a look around the garden centre that has become a good meeting point. I found these terrarium and thought they made a nice photo. Abstract, reflective and visibly drippy.. (not sure I would want one of these ones for £25)
On returning home I had a bunch of flowers on the doorstep and a card full of apology.. then a text to apologise again. Hmm.. a nice gesture but not what I was really after.. still if the message has been got across.. perhaps it will be worth it.
