Is it night yet .....

Wednesday 10pm. I lie here again, maybe my best thinking is done in bed (some would say that's where I spend most of my time so why wouldn't I do most of my thinking there... not true ..!!) The stars seem so much brighter, shinier here, but that may have something to do with the fact I am seeing between the louvre windows and directly at the stars, whereas at home I have to peer through net curtains and a pane of glass ... oh well.

There is definitely no point me trying to work out what is what in the night sky, can I tell a constellation from a moon beam ... no, unfortunately not. Then it dawns on me - the realisation not the daylight, I haven't been awake all night - that when a friend (Rufusndp) said I was heading south - about which I nearly complained vociferously that you NEVER tell a lady she is heading south, I can see that well enough for myself - ahem - I then understood what he meant was South of the border - well Equator anyway. My denseness on these issues appears even denser than ever (oh grammar girl !).

No matter, I still can't tell which star is which. I just know that lying here in the dark they look so beautiful and that's good enough for me.



Dusk (6pm)
