Iโve had a bit of a hectic week this week, and on more than one occasion Iโm absolutely certain I melted when I shouldnโt have done. Iโve literally had to flop, wherever, given the chance. I like comfortable heat. This is uncomfortable heat, so Iโm not particularly keen. Canโt do anything about it, though (apart from melting and flopping and that hasnโt done anything to help matters nevertheless!)
As luck would have it, my little fridge was in need of a severe defrost, so I did that this afternoon. It took all of ten minutes. Itโs purring away nicely now, keeping my last remaining bottle of lime soda cool.
No point moaning about the weather though. Extreme storms are due to roll in tomorrow, which should clear the air, and cool things down again ready for next weekโs hot onslaught. Hopefully by then, the nights will be cooler too, but we shall see.
Itโs either too hot, too cold, too this, too thatโฆ another reason for me to want to flop wherever.
Iโve missed a few days blogging, which happens from time to time. Thatโs nothing to do with the weather, though, and more to do with the hectic week. But Iโm clawing myself back. Re-congealing myself after all my melting, if you like. Regaining strength after all the flopping. That sort of thing. Ahโฆ I ramble.
Missing blogging means Iโve missed a few days worth of squares, so to make up for that I present a huge rectangle. I canโt enter it into Beckyโs Squares, because itโs not square, but itโs of a tree. Itโs the tree that was in the second Square I posted (A River Runs Through It), only there are a few more unexpected (or should that be expected around here) subjects in the photo. Yes, The Spirits of the Trees are here! Loads of them in this photo.
Top left thereโs a bright spirit waving, and, by the looks of things, taking a photo!
Thereโs a pig-like spirit looking at us just below nine oโclock, with a small possum or raccoon just beneath its chin.
There are several pairs of eyes looking at us just above the pig, left side.
Thereโs a bright cat enjoying him or herself in the leaves at the bottom of the pictureโฆ the smile on the face and one particular fang very clear.
And there are othersโฆ but look closely. Almost at the very centre, at the back. Thereโs a gorilla spirit leaning and peering through the trees directly at us.
Maybe you can see others. Let me know in the comments if any of these spirits jump out at you.
