ROLL CALL

A cheerful inventory

Je bois un café dehors!

Good morning,

This cheeky poem was inspired by the lovely people around me at the Thalassotherapy clinic here in Benicassim. I have a very busy day today, starting with a blood test, then physiotherapy. After that I'll have breakfast, followed by a wallow in the seawater pool with my fellow-wallowers. Then...oops, I don't remember! Probably something healthy and watery and meditative. I got so meditative yesterday that I actually forgot to go to my mud-algae wrap therapy, but they'll find me another slot. I thought I was done for the day, and went to lie in the sun, and even had a swim in the outdoor pool! Pretty chilly, but sooo delightful.

Over lunch, I gave a copy of Illicit Croissants At Dawn (I'd brought one with me; an author must always travel at least one copy of one's creations!) to a friendly American man who was absolutely thrilled.

Later, I did some painting on my terrace. Utter rubbish, but meditative, and I enjoyed myself, and it felt especially delightful to have the sun on my body.

It's another beautiful day, the waves look friendly and forgiving, which is a miracle when you think of all the terrible things we keep doing to the planet. I love listening to them roll in and out. 

I'm feeling calm and relaxed and more trusting of my body.

Have a lovely day,

With love and gratitude,

Francesca
