11月1日 Part 2iOnce upon a time-Part 2 i
Birthday treat
The North didn't last long.
My soul yearned to be elsewhere.
I could feel the pull in my chest, my heart reaching out, crying out.
I can feel it now, like an ache in my chest and my belly. Not a crushing feeling, but a pull on my very being, if my ribs were to open, it would be able to fly free. Soar. Find it's true home.
It was to be my 19th birthday that weekend.
Wales in high summer beckoned. We packed the van and set off. Just the three of us this time and the animals. I had bought Saff a little harness, for her safety as well as my peace of mind. It was painted red, gold and green...and looked stunning against her brindle coat.
Happy Daze
Bala.
The journey wasn't without it's tests. The alternator lead kept coming undone and we had no lights for most the journey. Enough spark plug and push power to get us there eventually.
Now, I need to remember order again.
Or maybe I don't...the memories are what matters, not the obsessive compulsive arranging.
The need for control.
These words have a way of their own.
I must learn to trust them.
The memories want to flow from my head...
Town on the back of a D series flat bed, the wind in our hair, the pride in my soul.
Making patties for the first time in a friends trailer, with spring onions in. How can something so simple taste so good? Eating one hash flapjack and passing out in the afternoon and nearly missing my birthday.
The privilege of the lunar eclipse that night. Sitting under the clear sky, watching nature unveil her beauty.
Watching a plastic pig, Reliant, flare up towards the sky...a burnt offering to gods of mischief and revelry.
Deciding not to return to the North.
I was hoping to finish this tonight but work has been calling, hence the part 2i.
I head home tomorrow, so will have to leave it there for this week. Next week...part2ii!!!
...and an update on our weekend do with possibly some more yummy beverage recipes.
Good night all
