Life, creative writing and quirk

One line a day

I have a One Line a Day diary that I’ve only written in a handful of times this year. Skimming back through the entries is like opening up the creaky gates of hell.

All children are sick. There has been vomit. Please send clean towels.

Or

Everybody is hitting everybody else. Piggy has lost his glasses, so we cannot start SOS fire.

And so it transpires that I am moving back in, blog. I’ve brought my lowly cardboard boxes back from where it was I’d been, and I’m setting up camp back here. I still have my one good saucepan, and those cushion covers you like so well. I will sleep on the couch until I can find someone who can deliver my bed.

I made cookies. Please help yourself.

Yours,

Short and occasional house mate.

    It’s been this kind of year. In and out. Focus drifts off and then you wrest it back. It always suprises me how similar the experiences can be.

    Sure that blog is happy to have you back xox

    I have always loved your cushion covers. Piggy lost his glasses at your house. Today Superman was wrestled to the trampoline floor by a 4 year old girl wearing pink sparkly shoes. The nonsense just needs a place to go, doesn’t it?? Good to have you back x
