Friday 7 August 2026: Looking for Zen

Thursday was a bit of a bonus day in the world of new home renovation. We didn’t have to get up early to let anyone in. No one was coming to the house throughout the day. We didn’t have to be anywhere. Well, we do have a stupid dog who likes to get us up early…and the dustmen were due to come and empty our wheelie bins (the recycle bin, the glass box, and the garden waste)…and we did have to go out and put petrol in my car on a dry run to the garage so I knew which gate to drive into in the morning…and the poet did have a meeting on site he had to attend…

Creating compelling characters

Whether or not love at first sight occurs in real life, you need to aim for something like it in storytelling.

Thursday 6 August 2026: We have grass!

Quite late on Tuesday evening, the building company owner sent a text warning me that the truck was coming at 8am the next morning to cart away all the debris from the front lawn. He and his co-worker would be at ours at 7:50am in order to meet the driver. He knew I’m not a fan of early mornings and I really appreciated the message.

Wednesday 5 August 2026: Lots of good news!

Wow, so here we are in August and it’s already the fifth of the month! What a fast and busy year we’re having. We were rudely awakened on Friday at about 5:30am when the dog started to bark. We ignored him because he’d not long been out, and we reckoned he’d just heard another dog barking somewhere, or something like that.
