Colouring and painting

Yesterday evening I started colouring one of the pictures in the book Tina passed onto me, and used the felt pens, also from Tina. The leg has been painful today so have done a bit more to it. Very intricate so not a speedy pastime.
The garden was muddy when I fed the birds, but it is quite good at the moment as the new three part feeder seems to be dozing the squirrels for now. At one pint when I came there were about twenty wood pigeons scouring for titbits!
I caught the bus up to Freeport, it was half full today which is very unusual, sometimes two or three other people and sometimes I have ti to myself!
I finished painting the ivy on the candlestick and becaus I had a fair bit of the green paint I had mixed I painted a couple of small hearts as well.
They look a bit like Loveheart sweets!
I walked up to Pound Stretcher and regretted it. Had to sit on the rollator for a while before making my way back down to catch the bus.
Sat with my feet up doing a bit of the colouring before going to visit Sarah and David. Have seen them for a couple of weeks now.
A quiet evening and the start of the new series of Traitors to look forward to.
Almost forgot, the tooth sage goes on! The same tooth I have now mentioned three times on recent dental visit broke again when I wa eting a breakfast bar this morning! As per usual they cannot see me, but I can go at 8.30am on Monday and sit and wait hoping she will have a gap! Not hurting at the moment so fingers crossed it stays that way.

  1. Firstly I love the colouring. That’ll be great when it’s finished. As you say it’s pretty intricate, so it’ll be a while.
    Glad you made it to Freeport for a bit of painting, even if the leg didn’t really want you to do it. The hearts do look like loveheart sweets 🙂 I’m looking forward to seeing the fired candlestick, I think it’ll be good.
    Can’t believe you’re having more trouble with that tooth! After the amount you’ve paid for it up to now I think it’s terrible they can’t fit you in to get it seen to. I sincerely hope they don’t have the cheek to charge you again!
    Enjoy Traitors.

  2. I am enjoying the colouring, although deciding the colours is a challenge. I am hoping the candlestick will turn out well.
    The Traitors beckon now!
