five minutes peace

Last night i spent a large amount of time watching the sky and listening to the sounds in the night as i waited to feel better after an asthma attack . As always , i enjoyed the peacefulness of the night.........to late for pub crawlers to destroy the  silence with their arguments and drunken songs .. and to early to have the mad rush that starts about five in the morning of people that have to drive to work. The time spent in a silent meditation , watching various shapes of darkened clouds and feeling safe , and soon my breathing felt better.
i am blessed to have a place i can sit in a nest of of pillows and blankets and watch the world go by, and feel safe.Ironically it is a place that our husky loves to sit or lay as well in the day.
Master and i went to a seaside town today , W/we didn't have time to see the sea ......but W/we did get to sample some of the fresh air as we hurried to the shop that He had to go to. He also brought me a lavender scarf.......made of cotton which feels lovely about my neck. Its light enough to use during the hot weather when you just need something small to keep the drafts away or cover up from the heat. Although it is predominately violet there are different shades on it as it has a kind of tie dye pattern to it.
Dad showed Master the gate that He has got for O/our garden and also the pattern that He is making in it of both mine and Master's initials ... It will look wonderful when it is finished , and it nearly made me cry in happiness that Dad had put so much thought into it and listened to what Master and i were discussing .
hope you all have a wonderful day

  1. Do post a photo of the gate when it's installed saffy.

    I have a favourite sitting place too - by our lily pond. Often our dogs come and sit near or under my chair. We can't see much of the world going by from there, though, not many pass our lower gate.
