I turned a corner today.

It is surprising really, given the lack of sleep, due to late returns of the Big Man and a poorly little limpet lying next to me, coughing in to my ear all night.

But the dark witch has been absent today.

Perhaps it was because she was found out and written out?

Perhaps it is because my attention was demanded elsewhere, all day, for comfort, answering incessant questions, making food, snacks and drinks.

Perhaps she too is tired, from being so loud.

Perhaps the effects of the daily self-care challenges I have been doing this week, have started to work…

Who knows?  But I am enjoying the break and looking forward to the good witch to return in her full splendour!
