Sky study 16


Mellow. No particular place to go...

From the archives: Rumi as a baby, asleep between two couch cushions:





It seems others have clouds in mind these days too. Here's a particularly unusual example. (They say they're smiley faces. They look a bit more like a grimace to me, probably the best one can do when faced with real London skies day after day.)

Sky study 14

Just a couple of the reasons we love cats: their grace (this is couch ballet) and the reminder that it's occasionally okay to just lay down in the middle of the day. ("Occasionally" applies to us. For them, "always" is more apt.)

Yesterday was such a blustery kind of spring day. Within an hour, I was rained on, snowed on, hailed on, sleeted on, and wind-ed at.




On my way to work: looking east on Iris and 28th at 5pm. (iPhone photo from my car)

I decided I didn't mind them, though...they're the "day stars.")




How to have a lazy Saturday (Miss Lemon's no-fail rules): 1. Locate couch. 2. Locate soft white belly on said couch. 3. Lay head on said belly.


And then there's this photo below, from the archives. It's out of focus but so funny that I just have to post it anyway. Couch cushions as black hole:
