sister_luckFor those who celebrate: Have a lovely holiday!
After the snow on Sunday and Monday, we're back to monochrome November. The world outside seems stripped of colour - with the sky a dirty grey, even the few coloured leaves left on the trees look dull. The ground is still wet and the kids playing hide and seek among the shrubbery in the school grounds take copious amounts of dark mud into the classrooms. It's lodged in the soles of their shoes and when it dries it falls out. At the end of lessons, it looks like you could start a vegetable patch under most of the chairs. The kids who sweep the floors have got a difficult job right now.
I'm quietly grateful for a lot of things today.
