Peace
“I’m out!” she shouted from the doorway, as she hitched her massive handbag up on her shoulder, opened the door and pulled her sunglasses down from on top of her head.

Oooh, Shiiiinyyyy!
Distractions. What distracts you? That’s the question from The Daily Post this week. For me, it’s the sky. I can be walking from my bedroom to the kitchen or the bathroom and be stopped in my tracks by the view of the expanse of sky from my balcony doors. So out I go, no matter…
