The first thing I do in the morning is check my photographs from yesterday.
And these photographs guide my post for today.
But yesterday I was feeling cold and out of sorts. Not quite poorly but a little bloody. When you are feeling bloody it is like you don’t know where to put your body. You are uncomfortable everywhere. Your head does not quite ache but it might. You don’t feel nauseous just maybe bilious.
I felt bloody all day. I moved listlessly from one job to the next pushed around by a cold, howling wind under a skate sky.
All day the words “something this way weary comes” rolled about in my head. Weary. Something coming. A premonition of nothing.
So, there are no photographs from yesterday for today. As fractious and busy and vulnerable as I felt, I forgot to take any photos. This image of Mr Flowers above was from the day before. I did take this little video of FreeBee though. Making his bed.
Today has dawned still and sunny. Not as cold as yesterday – the temperatures warming right back up again. Shall I think about planting my garden I wonder?
I am back on board and will take more photos throughout the day. For you. Like I normally do.
No more feeling bloody.

THAT is an incredibly apt title!
Glad the attack of the bloodies has passed. I’m very familiar with the symptoms, and it’s such a relief when you realise the body has snapped back.
