daylight

up and all are still asleep, that is habit, habit for earliness, and comfort of the weekend letting things be a little bit later.
Seven in the morning, make a small breakfast.
for one, not for those asleep.
Sit in the kitchen, between all the overloaded surfaces, things used once and left were they were used, a marmalade pot with a spoon still in it, the lid to the left on the surface.
The drip tray of the coffee machine not emptied, the dishwasher open, a few items removed, the remainder not needed, so left in the machine.
There is a bill on the floor, an invoice from a building suppliers. That firm requires cash payment, the bill should have been kept for tax purposes.
But now it is on the floor.

And as time goes on:
And  so see the place in daylight for the first time this week
Daylight is good clear light.
But it is not merciful

And the prospect of all day to fix the situation
is not pleasant
