Yesterday.

I've been feeling down lately, I don't know why...


I'm just really unmotivated, but after starting at her blog for a few moments I was inspired again.


So inspired I attempted some of her craft projects.



I planted colour, because the dullness that surrounds me in this house weighs me down.


And basil in pots where the snails can't reach.


Harper had a major meltdown at the supermarket. The kind where people stare...

He did the plank, and you know I was ok with it, it was 33ยบ, he was tired, and wanted to be at home in bed and even though I could feel judgemental eyes burning through my back I held my head high, got that dam chicken I came for and carried him to the register.

When we got home he slept for three hours without a sound.


And I tore up the wizard of OZ. and although it felt wrong it looked so right.



That night excitement began to build as the anticipation of a storm awaited and we decided to go outside and draw.


Harper drove a hot rod.


And rode a motorbike.


And as the sky began to grow dark,


Harper ran around the yard screaming, "It's only a storm" in a half terrified half excited voice.



Then the rain came and we lay in the bath and listened to that storm, it felt good.

Yesterday. It was a good day.
