Duvet Maria

Have you ever had a duvet day? I highly recommend them if you’re feeling out of sorts. Whether it’s physical or emotional, if you’re not actually ill enough to take to your bed but you can’t face business as usual, just grab your duvet, snuggle up on the sofa and put on some DVD’s. It’s good for what ails ya.

If I could, I’d have a duvet day today as I’m not feeling one hundred per cent fantastic. To be blunt, I’m feeling a bit crap. I had a rough night; woke around two and wrestled with some horrible emotions before drifting back to an unsatisfactory sleep around 4 (I imagine.)

Where does all this stuff come from? When I was in a yoga ashram they used to talk about karma a lot and sometimes people would say in bewilderment, ‘Where does it all come from?’ Life, like history, is just one damned thing after another; just when you think you’ve got it sorted, along comes another problem. It’s a bummer.

Well there you go. Sometimes a duvet day is called for and today I shall be having mine. I feel a Harry Potter movie coming on…

Hope you’re enjoying the short story serial.
