At this moment

Nan of Letters from a Hill Farm introduced an occasional posting idea called ‘At this moment’ based on the idea of what she was doing at a particular moment. It is an exercise in awareness.

This is my first attempt at it...


When it was: Saturday morning.

Where I was: On the two-seater settee in the conservatory.

What I was doing: Some embroidery.


What I saw: Jo in the chair opposite (note how she’s vacated it once the camera came out!), the garden outside the window, the occasional bird on the bird table.

What I heard: Jo reading out crossword clues, the faint sound of traffic from the main road, occasional bird cheeps from a baby Greenfinch, a plane overhead, and the odd thump as a Wood Pigeon landed on the conservatory roof.

What I smelled: Sandalwood Incense

What I tasted: Morning coffee made with lashings of cream (before the doctor tells me off again on Monday) and plenty of sugar.

What I felt: Cosy and contented (not counting the occasional needle prick as I missed the embroidery and got my finger instead).
