day of daffodils

I was determined to enjoy the spring day despite going to the dentist first thing. Unusually arriving with time in hand instead of my usual screech into a much-prayed-for close parking spot, I went to admire some daffodils first. And stroke a tree or two, to get myself grounded. It worked at first, and when I felt a bit despondent after I bought a few bunches of daffs to brighten up our office. My boss had also made both carrot cake and brownies so it was a lovely place to be today, we even had the window open as the sun shone through.

Before that tho I was in the car when there was a magnificent hailstorm. I've not checked the paintwork but it wouldn't surprise me if it caused dents. I was laughing at the sheer magnitude of it. I remember when living in Ireland, I once pulled off the road in a hailstorm as the ice pieces were like boulders. Only yesterday I was caught in another hailstorm, and immediately afterwards there was such a vivid rainbow. Sometimes things can be dark and cold and not nice to be in at all, but there's always brightness to be found after. Here's hoping I can hold onto that when I return to the dentist next week!
