Sunday Savvy 34

Sunday savvy -
standing in the queue
a ragged man too
--gillena cox

There used to be a small bakery on the Western main road, near the George Cabral street corner. There, on a Sunday morning, a bustling trade for hops bread was the order of the day. Long lines of people would be, standing waiting to buy hops. The queue, a mini carnivalesque on a Sunday morning. People from all walks of life, from St James and district outside of St James converged to form this mini metropolis for hot freshly baked hops. Many of the Sunday attendees at the nearby St Mary's RC church, i believe were in some ways distracted, by thoughts of the purchases of hops, they planned to make after Holy Mass

Sunday Savvy 32

Sunday savvy -
sweeping leaves and feathers
a faint cooooo cooo sound
--gillena cox

Sunday is the day that i like to sweep the yard and prune shrubs; i like a beautiful garden, but i'm not much of a gardener, most of the flowering plants in my garden i have planted; but i'm not very consistent; therefore i pay to have my gardening chores done.
I have recently planted in my back yard portion of the garden, lemon grass, hot peppers and spanish thyme (which i use in seasoning fish) and have been looking in on them; we'll see how that goes
But really, sweeping and pruning on Sunday i feel a certain joy in doing; other days of the week should i do the same thing i feel like its a chore

Ever came across the term Sunday Painter? well, it does exist as a legitimate English language phrase; 'some one who paints as a hobby' Wow! what a discovery, i'm up there with the millions of other hobbyists, and we are labelled

Hair And Now

the above photo of me was taken in February 2009, by my daughter Yanda Cox. After 12 years of growing my hair naturally, today, i have cut it all off; despite my new look, i'm keeping the blog photo up, because that's how i looked when i first started this blog in 2006.

morning rain -

to do cartwheels
