It’s monday! And I’m already weary. But that would have something to do with the crazy week I just had, and the even crazier one I have ahead. Oh, and also the (but not the) flu I’ve been pretending I don’t have.

While I’m busy working on some ridiculously exciting things at the moment, there are also some ridiculously exciting things to come here in the (blog)house this week… including the arrival of our next guest!! Who will be here any minute. Oh, I’m excited.

Meanwhile, let’s draw water circles while we wait…

People tell me I should go to Barcelona. It’s a city I have never been. And I’m told I would like it very much.

Perhaps I will go one day. But not today. I have many things to do.

It’s dark out there. And stormy.
I’ve turned off my music, and I’ve switched off the phone.

Let your mind and heart wander. This gentle storm will take us far away and bring us back to the present, in the kindest of ways.

Enjoy the rest of your day my dear readers. And if night has fallen in your corner of the world, I hope you will have the sweetest dreams tonight.
