Another frosty night under a bright full moon which has just started to wane. Bright sunshine and a clear sky when I woke up after a fairly good night's sleep. Owain came over to join his sisters to take Clare to St David's Spa for a belated birthday treat with her offspring. I didn't join them as I'm not sure if I can take that measure of unusual stimulus without being overwhelmed. It's a kind of vulnerability I've never experienced before, and I need to proceed with caution to avoid accidents.
Instead of going with them, I did the grocery shopping, and then cooked a veggie sugo ready for tonight's pasta supper. I ate enough at lunchtime to ensure my blood sugar didn't drop but still felt unwell, my head throbbed as if I'd been poisoned, and my thought processes slowed down and became erratic. When I laid the supper table, I forgot to include myself. Fortunately however, I cooked enough for five. A walk in the park cleared my head, and this time when a pied wagtail landed on the path ahead of me I was quick witted enough to get a good photo of it. Earlier, Clare took a few photos of me with the girls. At supper time I took a full family photo of the five of us at the dining table using the timer with the camera perched on the piano. I must have taken the same picture of us all together at family gatherings many times over the years.
After supper we relaxed and made music together until tiredness caught up with each of us in turn.
