The storm

that just won't let go! Had a reprieve this morning, and I went for a walk. It's interesting, when these interludes occur, that the beach is wild and windswept, but not un-doable. I walked along Tangaroa's edge, talking to my Lord while his brother tried to whip my hat off. I don't have a scarf he can tease me with anymore - I invented the necky to foil him! It's a muff, actually. I knit a rectangle of fluffy wool (it traps loads and loads of air and keeps you warm) and sew it together, to form a tube. It protects that triangle that never gets covered by scarves. It also stops the ends being whipped out and getting tangled by the playful wind.

Exercise is the key to my continued good mental health. It's precarious some days, and I have to redouble my efforts when I don't feel like doing anything. And to be gentle with myself, when I don't quite make it. Plus, I get to feel virtuous for the rest of the day!

Amazing
