  • Humid

    The air is so heavy...

    we are forecast another storm tonight...

    Even houses were set on fire last night by the lightning!

    Windows are open..the stillness pervades.I anticipate another short night!!!
    The fans are on in the bedrooms...children now sleeping..

    Listening to the noises outside..I can hear the night time noises I hear in Greece, Spain, Africa...the constant crickets...the insect night time noises...

    It must be hot...

  • Storm

    Last night...we had an apocolypse of a storm...deadly.
    Frightening.
    Loud.
    Powerful.

    3.30 the rumblings turned into crashes and bangs and clatters...
    4.00am The rain travelled in waves towards the house.

    Lightning so bright the house was brilliant white, haunting.

    Never have I been so frightened in this country when listening to a storm...the windowsills vibrated, as did the floor. I waited for the house to implode...

    Eventually, the marital bed was filled with a weeping 9 Year old daughter, a cowering 2 year old dog and a terrified long haired moggie...she's about 14.

    My beautiful lively boy...slept throughout...deep in slumber...

    I staggered to work today...shattered!!!
