To może na początek skromne początki wiosny?
How about humble beginnings of spring for a start?
How about humble beginnings of spring for a start?
Wiosna wiosną, ale temperatura, zwłaszcza poranna, utrzymuje się uparcie w granicach raczej wczesnowiosennych niż kwietniowych. W środę spędziłam dwadzieścia trudnych minut oczekując na spóźniony autobus, za namową Mamy ubrana w lekką kurtkę, niewystarczająco ciepłą sukienkę, bez beretu i rękawiczek, a za to w pożyczonym swetrze. Lodowaty wiatr przewiewał mnie na wskroś, a ja marznąc myślałam tylko o tym, co mam w torbie i co z tego zrobię. Były to trzy kłębki szarej wełnianej włóczki Kashmir, które na skutek desperacji w sposób nagły kupiłam po drodze z jednego przystanku na drugi, bo marznąc na poprzednim przystanku przeanalizowałam w myślach moją garderobę i nie znalazłam w niej ani jednego uniwersalnego sweterka. To się wkrótce zmieni, bo rzeczony Kashmir zamierzam przerobić w to.
Spring may well be here but the temperatures, especially in the morning, are decidedly unlike late April. On Wednesday, I spent twenty unpleasant minutes waiting for a delayed bus and wearing only a light jacket, a not warm enough skirt, no beret or gloves, with a sweater I borrowed from my sister being the only thing that kept me from freezing to death. The cold wind was blowing right through me, and as I was sitting there, I kept concentrating on the thing I had in my bag: three skeins of the gray woollen yarn Kashmir that I’d bought on my way from the previous bus stop. It was a desperate and impulsive purchase, the result of having, earlier that day, analysed my wardrobe and finding nothing there that would resemble a versatile cardigan. Which is shortly going to change, as I’m making the Kashmir into this.
