good morning!

I spent a (now quite rare) morning in golden solitude. I'm a lover of people, fun and socialising but all this very close living, coupled with the shenanigans over the weekend, have given me a renewed sense of needing alone time. The young ones slept in, Stuy headed off to work and I made myself a nice cup of Rooibos and settled down to the puzzle we started yesterday.

It was lovely.

But just a little noisy....

.....my daughters beloved guinea pigs were playing a strenuous game of hide and seek with much squeaking and jumping about. The budgie decided now was a good time to let the world know it was a new morning and everybody needed to get up! And outside, in the not-for-much-longer-vacant block next door the workers started up their diggers and proceeded to shout instructions over the machinery noise!

Aaah!! Bliss! Everything is just as it should be!
