Monday's quiet

'Interior of My House in Paris' by TF Simon, 1909
A pretty painting found online just now---seems to be soothing to my melancholy mind.

When I'm so down, there are certain sparks that flash up at me at odd times.  Can't ever tell when the clouds will part long enough to give me a lift, but for some reason, this painting did just that.  Especially love the way the curtain looks.

About to listen to some music.  That's a help as well.

I'd tell you about the after-dinner drama involving 2 of the kids which put paid to my day, but you'd want to run and hide.  Let's just say it involved fourth son's newly-broken tooth, sweet Indian's boyfriend's sister who's coming to dinner with him to meet oldest daughter's best friend and her sister on Friday.  Try to say that five times quickly.  Add to that SIB's sister's unrealistic fear of balloons, and the story just gets strange.  Just for spite, I want to have balloons.
