a few of my favourite things...

I have discovered something. That something is my new favourite time of day. And that time of day is... sunrise! Who would have thought that could even be possible. It is so rare for me to ever see the sunrise or to even be awake, though it is becoming less rare. I officially decided that it was my new favourite time when I was taking mumsy to the station the other morning. When I jumped into the car it was mostly dark, but by the time I got home it was pretty light... and the transition was just beautiful. So yes... I like it. It's perdy.

Another thing I have discovered thanks to working early is... morning people. Morning people are pleasant in the morning! Sometimes even happy... I never really knew these people existed not being one and all... but it seems they do! So pretty mornings and morning people make my being awake and existing much more bareable... in the morning.

Mornings... in particular sunrise... make me want to go to my favourite place on earth. Oh, I miss it terribly. It is my special place... its where I can truly be me... its where I can relax, reflect and recharge the best. It's my green gables, even though I did not grow up there and the gables aren't green. The house... with the carpet in the kitchen and bathrooms... the mega window that I could stare out for hours on end... the lane to walk down to the mile post and back... the other lane which leads to my favourite tree ever which I think died in a storm... the lane that continues past all the pretty ochre... that leads to the creek... my favourite body of water ever... sigh. I miss visiting Salsbury West very much. These days I can only go there in my imagination. Its not quite the same. I guess I am thinking about it so much because I am going to Bendigo on the weekend to visit my grandparents... and they used to live at my favourite place on earth. I wish they still did.

Well there you go. A few favourites. A few memories. It makes me happy.

The end.
