Today....

...I learnt how important body language is. Hands on hips and arms folded are very off putting and can suggest that a person is not interested.
.... I was with a participant who is regaining her speech following a stroke. She was struggling to explain herself and then very clearly said...." its all gobledegook". Now thats not easy to say.
....I realised that my car doesnt like overtaking other cars when we are driving up a hill !!!!
....we reached the end of September.... a whole month without any rain. The river is very low, a nearby pond is empty and we need to water the garden with the hose pipe. A big downpour is needed.
