This is the only word I have in my head. The. With a Full Stop. (In New Zealand that little dot is called a Full Stop. Here in America they call it a Period).
Do you think that ‘The.’ means something? Or nothing. Or maybe it means the beginning – of nothing. All I have in my head is the start of a sentence but no content? I think it is perfectly reasonable to assume that there is no content in my head. No actual sentence. At least not fully formed as sentences are wont to be. Like a song only partially remembered and that part is the sound of the chorus, no words, no name. Just a sound.
My arms are tired from carrying buckets of water and heaving about the hay that I want the cows to eat while I am away, into one pile and putting the bales for the milking (that they are not allowed to eat yet) in a dark corner. (Some women put labelled meat-loaves in the freezer for their husbands to eat while they are away – I organise feed for pigs and cows).
It was. ? Oh. There I go again. Nothing.
This view is from the North door of the West barn.
I hope you have a lovely day.

Interesting sky shot. Lovely peafowl. Is that Auntie Del who is getting so tall? I’m sure you have a lot on your mind. If a three-letter word–and a full stop–are what you have, then that’s what you have! Have a lovely day!
It’s the little bull, our Carlos IV, Patti, who makes our Auntie Del looking so tall! – He’s kind of a midget or a dwarf… 😉
Mercy, don’t tell him that! c
Uuh, please keep it as a secret between us…. 😉
And I enthusiastically echo Patti’s thoughts! Much love, Gayle
After reading all of these comments, I had all sorts of thoughts swimming around and couldn’t organize any of it. Maybe I need another cup of coffee? I decided just to go back up and look at the images and keep it simple. Period. (I didn’t know it was called anything else and frankly have never give “The” much thought!)
