The Eve of Beltane

It has been a long journey to reach this point. It is the eve of Beltane and a gloriously warm, sunny day.

I have done some household chores (never enough though), went for picnic lunch at Bothwell Castle and I now sit like a madwoman in the front garden updating the blog, struggling with the laptop's screen, battery, power supply, mouse etc in the sunlight.

Work has been time consuming so I may never recall what suits I wore the previous week but they are sitting in various piles around the house but for last week, here goes:-
Tues 26/04 - Levine grey stripe with grey lining (lovingly known to me as my interview suit from New York), can't remember what shirt but it was newly ironed
Wed 27/04 - Autonomy black stripe with black lining/green
Thurs 28/04 - Slater black with black lining/green cashmere jumper, green suede shoes and green Nine West mac from New York - yes a bit of a change but I had caught one of my black utility Clarks shoes on a crack in a slab leaving work the night before, which had split the leather at the front of the shoe so I thought I should wear something different for once instead. And also, because I was being lazy and not organising more clothes or getting whatever suits may still be in storage back for April, I bought the Slaters suit the previous weekend at their warehouse sale. Cheating? Yes.

The green shoes makes me think it should be shoes in May but I'll have to plan this a bit more. However I did get a nice summer dress at the White Stuff in Edinburgh this week so it could be dresses perhaps or also?

Not quite at the stage of bearing my soul re the changes the book, and the year, has brought yet. I shall also seeking the wisdom of the wicked witch again next week. So hopefully Beltane will bring  me clarity and direction. And that I remember that what's for me, will not go by me as, conversely, what is not for me, will go by me so no chasing rainbows and moonbeams (but I can still dance and spin in lush green grass in warm noon sun at the castle under the brilliant blue sky).

It is strange that Beltane starts with a dark moon this year.
