Today was a mental health day, meaning I really didn’t do much. I woke up around noon, got ready, grabbed something to eat, and went to the park. We are in the middle of a heatwave and I’m taking full advantage of it to get some sun!
At the park I couldn’t believe the amount of people! Sunbathing, playing football (soccer), picnicking, reading, walking, running, and basically anything else done outdoors, I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many people at a park before. The serpentine, normally a deep blue, almost covered with row and paddle boats. Sections of the park covered so densely with people it was more people you saw than grass. I wish I would have taken photos, however I thought it would be a little creepy.
I was lucky to find a few quite sections to read the play for this week, Arden of Feversham. I spent all day reading in the park, which is just what I needed. I love these parks! And although it was busy, the calming affect it has on me still remained.
Not much remained of the evening when I got home: dinner, pajamas, and visiting with flatmates. It wasn’t a very busy day, but a much needed day of rest. Until tomorrow-
