MY MIND IS A BLANK ...

...Or, ................?

Do you know what?  I can't think of anything to say. 

Not just 'I can't think of anything to blog about,' but I have been struggling with random and occasional words for a few days now. 

Today, for example, I was talking to the dog and I said,

 

'We need to wipe your feet because...'

 

and then words failed me. 

 

We looked at each other, the dog and I, and a moment of mutual understanding passed between us.  She realised that I had been attempting to express that -unwiped - her fluffy,wet dog feet would poddle rain all through the house.  And I realised that she, of course, was wondering where her next piece of cheese was coming from.

Assuming that it is the remnants of a head-cold (ever had a hand-cold?) that is fuddling my brain, and not a sign of something rather more sinister, I have decided that I should embrace the quiet. 

Not try to speak; nor force the words to write.

In these days of texting, facebook, email and twitter - where we can constantly and immediately communicate - perhaps we could just stop, every now and then;  be calm, and just listen. 

I'm doing just that.  I am listening to my body . . .

and it doesn't have anything to say right now. 

 

I hear you body!

With this in mind - and in the spirit of multifunctional greetings cards everywhere - I am leaving the following space blank, for your own thoughts.

Right I'm off now, to ... erm ... um.....whassstheword..?





Look at me!  I can make not having anything to say take up a whole page!  Wooohoo.
