Summer is here!

It has certainly been a long time since I have written anything on this blog. It doesn't mean nothing has happened - but just that I have not felt the need to write. Life has progressed reasonably well. I have done lots of nice things and enjoyed a period of sunshine and being out in the country.

One day as I went walking in the country I suddenly thought of the word that had escaped me some time ago when I was trying to describe how I felt when things were at their best and that word is 'Sublime'. When suddenly that feeling comes over you that this is very special and that you must hold it to yourself and try and remember it for as long as possible.

I did have another such moment when I was staying at my friends' house in the country. The weather was perfect - not too hot , not too cold. The fields were green starting to go golden - the sky was blue with puffy white clouds and I was walking on my own just dreaming when I realised that I was happy. I had no pressure on me, nowhere to get to in a hurry, I could go at my own pace and I felt at one with the world (does that expression sound trite?) Anyway it was a moment to treasure.

I had another enjoyable day last week-end when I visited my grown up grandson (he is 28) and spent a day with him and his girl friend. They were such great company and we had a glorious day.

So though there are times when I get very depressed and wonder what it is all about - I do have some wonderful moments. So I will try not to grumble - BUT - it I do need to grumble this is the place to do it!
