Will it ever end?

The sun is shining. It’s really beginning to feel warm. Most of the washing has already dried.

In the garden the lilac is in full bloom & smelling sweetly. The wisteria is beginning to open up – the first time ever, so we’re quite excited. Everything is looking lush.

The Fox’s new medication is having some effect. The patches on his arms, legs & face seem paler, less angry looking. His hands remain looking as though he’d put them through some sort of mangle & very uncomfortable. The worst of it is that he inevitably uses his hands so much – helping cooking, washing up, holding things, writing – they just don’t have a chance to heal up. I’m hoping this sunshine might help. He did seem a lot better when he was in the warmth in the French sunshine in March.

I put the radio on earlier on. It still seems to be dominated by the royal wedding. I thought it was bad enough yesterday but still it goes on. I’m beginning to wonder if it will ever end.
