Like a Carousel That's Turning...

When I woke this morning... I was grateful that I was feeling better than yesterday. I nudged himself and advised him that despite appearances, I was not getting up - I was merely heading to the loo.

I staggered up... apologised to the Beau cat for disturbing her beauty sleep and waddled to the toilet. Upon completion I stuck my nose out the hall window and gazed in awe at the beautiful golden sunrise.... the sky was pale, but the clouds were like golden dipped cotton balls and there were beams of light shining out behind them. I was awestruck.

I knew there was no time to fetch a camera, so I stood and enjoyed; making sure to keep my floppy bits inside the curtain.

As I stood, thinking it couldn't possibly get better, from the left flying directly in to the beams of gold, a swan.

I just stood there mouth open... slightly saddened that I didn't have a camera to capture it for everyone to enjoy... but delighted that I had such a gift to wake up to.

And then..

I went back to bed for an hour :-)
