The eye of the rose.

I couldn't get to sleep last night and eventually got up, made tea , had a biscuit, read and that did the trick but I slept late as a result and the morning just vanished..  Spent the afternoon waiting for the roofers who were coming to clean the gutters but they didn't appear so I'll have to start again. I could have done something in the garden but it was so  cold and windy I chickened out. Did some washing  but the stairs are still waiting for a hoover.
