Christmas tree: done!

  It takes time: I found it was not at all an easy thing to decorate the Christmas tree.  First I had to find a small, but nice one. I have to put it at a certain height and somehow protected, because of my cats. Second I wanted some kind of sober decorations, not too much appealing for the cats. Last year I managed, therefore, when I put it away, I simply wrapped it with all the decorations. And this year, the "mise en place" resulted a quite easy thing! Even if Daleel, the youngest cat, followed very attentively every step of the preparation!

Back to sun time

 


In Europe time changed last night. We are back to solar time. It has been a very strange Summer, which reminded me of the north European Summers I enjoyed so much because they were bearable. In Italy, to my perception, they are tough. When you are in the flat lands of the river Po valley because of the heavy humidity. In the center and in the south because it gets really hot.

Not last Summer though. And it was really awkward. In spite of enjoying my “ideal” Summer I felt a kind of uneasiness. My system memorised this kind of Summer in a northern European choreography, therefore it felt so strange, unusual, looking around and seeing the Italian  landscape appearing, so unexpected! It didn't match the memory!

Summer over, and we hoped in a warm and joyous Autumn, but we got rain instead. Just a continuous rain…

Now with an hour difference, at five in the the afternoon, it seems already evening…
