Close to happiness

Cold frosty morning. Re-read parts of the TS Eliot prize winning collection Sonnets for Albert, by Anthony Joseph, which I liked more this morning than I had done the night before.  Then at 11 plunged into more recording with Robin, followed by a good deal of editing. Got the first complete edit sent off to Robin for her to listen to first thing tomorrow. 

Also thinking about how to execute my Secret Santa present for Friday. I have the concept, it is just the execution which is challenging. 

In the afternoon Lorraine and I went out for a very enjoyable walk by the sea. Here is Lorraine standing close to happiness. Also an icy birdbath in our back garden this morning.
