Back to School

Well, that's the summer holidays over for another year! I had a beautiful drive to Schull this morning in typical "going back to school weather" - (I.e. brilliant sunshine) as the lad's school bus doesn't resume service until tomorrow. It was very difficult getting out of bed at such an ungodly hour (not really early, but much earlier than I've been used to over the last three months!) but I fought the temptation to go back to bed after I had dropped him off!

I've started writing some Morning Tales as a way of kick starting my creativity and came up with a very bitter-sweet tale this morning. When I've tweaked it, I might blog it - but I might enter it into a competition - cos I just love rejection!!! It's true what they say about needing to warm up the brain. I start these tales with just a sentence and see where they go. It's a fascinating exercise. Yesterday, I wrote a tale about a slug-eating would-be king! Who knows where that came from!

Oh dordi - the sunshine has been replaced by a lashing torrent of rain accompanied by a strong gusty wind. That's just what I need - there is gardening to be done. Oh well - it looks like more FB and maybe another twisted morning tale!
