Envy
He own things I lack.
She wore leather boots, I want.
Why I lack a lot?
He’s not more lucky.
I don’t need those leather boots.
I don’t covet things.

Thank you! Though that is sheerest happenstance for me since the 12 hour time difference meant that we were collaborating at midnight my time and noon her time 🙂 So I had one eye open 🙂 The sleep I gave up was worth it!

It was worth it 🙂 I wish we didn’t have such a large time difference but we live on opposite sides of the globe, so that can’t be helped! 🙂

Yes, she has a 15 hour time difference from where I live too. She is usually waking up and blogging about the time I am going to bed at night.
