help


Today I didn't do any of the Very Important Business Stuff I was meant to do. I didn't do my tax. I didn't read that article about wealth and happiness. I didn't write a piece that has been bubbling away in my brain. And I didn't make that phone call.

What I did do, was help Someone Lovely with something that has been in the making for a long time, something that has been A Big Challenge.

It worked a treat! So we went for a swim to celebrate. And I wore my favourite swimmers. The ones with stripes and parrots. The ones that make me feel happy even if they aren't great for swimming laps.

Stripes and parrots and a big shared achievement. What a great day.
