Mum, evening and heather

Mum really enjoyed Alice's music therapy this week. I only took her back into the wheelroom once, otherwise she stayed with Alice for 45 minutes. She listened, talked, danced and watched and laughed with Alice, who was very good with Mum. It was lovely to see her having some quiet moments and enjoyment (of some sort).

Once I brought her in I cut up an apple so she would sit down for a moment and then I left and just watched through the door. Mum didn't want to play any instrument but she clearly enjoyed Alice's company and her music. She'll do another one next week and weekly thereafter all going well.

Wonderful sunset over Little Bousta these cloudy evenings.

The flowering heather, ling this time rather than the usual bell heather, has been fantastic this year. I have never seen it this way in Shetland, must have been all the sunny weather.
