i'm just loving this start to summer

i have really enjoyed the last few days...summer is clearly coming, even the light doona is now too warm, the evenings are lovely, the cardi's and pashmina's almost don't get a look in as i'm rushing out the door, and the sky seems to be a permanent (and lovely) hue of blue...

the whirring of the fan, the cacophony of the insects that are busy going about their day (seemingly right under my window!), the faint sound of bat against ball as the locals play cricket and if the tele is on the marvellous voice of Richie Benaud lulling me into an afternoon nap as he describes every delicious moment of the game unfolding somewhere else....these are my favourite sounds of summer...what are yours?
i feel happier! as if the winter 'weight' has lifted and something in me has shifted - only time will tell i guess...
funny thing happened at my acupuncturist yesterday as i was recounting to him the story of my migraine (and continuing headache - we are now into Day 9....): he said that for most people either an ice cold coke or a hot coffee with sugar can if taken at the onset of a migraine, intervene....imagine my delight then coz i do love an excuse to down an ice cold can of coke - it's ordinarily (especially on current regime) a huge NO NO!  of course the dreams you have both during a migraine and after, a BIZARRE and coming from me that's hilarious coz most of my dreams are weird...but seems they are very real anda whole lot of people from the past are coming up....and you know what? they are in reality too :-)
to my friend MJ, who's all the way over in dark cold England....thanks for continuing to keep in touch with my life from over there - thanks for calling the other day - know that you are often in my thoughts and i miss you....
enjoy the start of summer xx
