I am trying to be good and give the ankle some proper rest, so have stayed in all day today. The reason this post is getting written earlier than usual, it has seemed a long day, and the weather outside has been very inviting! One more picture of the sky from last night.
Anya is coming up for the Olly concert tomorrow so I am hoping she will take the masks and tee shirts back with her. I had bought the spray varnish but not actually treated the masks so did them this morning. Very strong smell of varnish in the house, but the window was open and it soon wore off. Took selfies of myself wearing them, maybe I will get Anya to wear a mask and a tee shirt tomorrow.
I have done a bit of tidying and enjoyed using my Gtec cleaners. Have had the tennis on but thought I would draw another couple of butterflies from the book.
Then, as I had the pencils out thought I would try and draw the plant that I bought at Deans on Thursday.
I got a lovely thank you note from my sister's grand-daughter saying how much she loved the picture of the tree house, that was good to hear, she says she is going to take it along to the wedding and have it on display.
I have been doing the ice treatments today, will sit with the ice packs again soon, have been taking the pills regularly as well. I haven't been out at all today so it is hard to tell if it has made much difference, but it can't be doing any harm so worth a try.
Looking out of the window a little while ago it looked like there was a Christmas tree on the street. Just the way the sun was catching a bush, it is all dark out there now but it did look great.
Bit grey because I was taking the picture in the direction of the sun, but you get the idea.
Bet it does seem a long old day when you're so used to being out and about. But as you say, it can't do any harm, and hopefully it'll do some good. Only time will tell. The masks look really good. You should look a good group wearing them and the t shirts too. You definitely need to get Anya to test them out tomorrow :-)
ReplyDeleteSome more good drawings today. Like them both. If I could draw like that I'd have to have them all on display. You'd never have enough wall space for all yours!
When I saw the picture of the street I immediately thought it was a Christmas tree too until I read the text. Amazing how the changing light can alter things so much.
I am pleased with the masks and they should be water proof now. I have enjoyed using the coloured pencils, got them to do the pre-printed colouring sheets but prefer to use them of stuff I have drawn myself.
ReplyDeleteCouldn't believe my eyes when I looked out at that bush, the effect was soon gone.
