My life was like a movie sequence this morning when Lucy texted me to say her family were leaving for Matapouri in 20 mins.
I saw the text at 11, which was 25 minutes after she sent it.
I suddenly went into a flurry of movement. Life became double speed. Clothes were flung, teeth got a cursory brushing, nails had to stay chipped, and dishes left out. I didn't walk anywhere, it was a sprint to the bathroom, kitchen, bedroom, car, front door, car, and I pealed out of the drive without so much as a goodbye to Manja who had witnessed the whole event with a very puzzled expression on her face.
