It is the first thing we receive and the last thing to leave us, breath. Be still and appreciate this life-giving force. Pull it into your lungs and enjoy the sensations while it enters and departs your body. Be grateful. Now, go, have a wonderful day.

Jules Verne imagined a future with a cracked moon; am I to suppose this is how we get there?

All fingers and toes crossed we'll revisit our little village someday. Thank you for such lovely characters.
This is it, cosy, witchy, home fires, WW 2, village, wartime adventure, doesn't quite do it justice. But it's such a charming read.
Finally got around to CB last night and it was just as good as the first. I often get irritated with long series but I would be delighted with a few more @markstay.bsky.social

Poverty is not a moral failing. Spending money on a silly, nonsense treat does not mean you deserve of poverty.
So don't you worry your pretty, little mind
People throw rocks at things that shine

Girrrl, I had one of those to deal with today, almost 5 hrs and a half hrs 😭
