read the news, China's explorations have reached the far side of the moon, a bleak place in space.
The British are opting to leave the club if they cannot define the rules
-and the Americans are trying to get their democracy in order.
And the antibiotics that the doctor prescribed are functioning.
Heard the sons alarm clock sound, hear him silence it.
Waited.
The wife started to cough, she is suffering the same sickness, just a younger instance of it.
She does not wish to go to the doctor.
And then got up, there is no cause to remain in bed not sleeping.
A cup of coffee and the news on the computer in the unlit sitting room
Only the light of street lanterns shining in through the big windows.
The cat is a shadow, and it is purring happily, enjoying the early company. There is somebody there to let it out. That makes her happy. The cat is part of the family, really, and has a name.
Miriam.
