Katy Evans-Bush · A Room of Someone Else's

On the Second Day of Christmas, we flop around the flat in our pj’s getting used to the miracle… Little Nylah has just finished a wonderfully coloured-in drawing made with the Spirograph she was given yesterday; her dad is in a Zoom meeting in the next room. I’ve just eaten a mince pie and being honest am feeling pretty dizzy. I’ll move slowly this afternoon. There are no leftovers because we ate Christmas dinner elsewhere (and it wasn’t even turkey!). The cats are restless. There are still festive phone calls to make, but I don’t feel like talking. And the sun is shining into this room through the scaffolding that’s been out there for months (no Christmas miracle there). Maybe later I’ll move slowly to the corner shop; this may be the one week of the year when time stands still but we’ll be needing something for supper!

I hope everyone reading this is spending this week somewhere peaceful and reasonably pleasant, whichever holiday you do or don’t celebrate. 🎄✨
