Cold but good day

I am doing short walks without sticks now, went to the post box early and was trying to concentrate on standing upright. I wasn’t really bent over but it is not a natural walk to be holding onto a rollator. It has stayed dry today but the wind has been bitter and the sun has been in hiding.

I caught the bus up to Freeport and had th infs to see and collect at the studio today, which was good. The bowl in greens turned out well, another sample on show.

I like my one better!

But I am delighted with the dragonfly pot so as couple of pictures of it.

Today I painted a gecko, used three different greens on the body, but A single layer so it will be subtle. It was hard to see if I had covered it all as it is they were very pale when they dried.

Had lunch with Tina when I got home and then I went out into the front garden. I did some strimming round the edges and then got the hand mower out and worked on the small lawn near the front wall. I didn’t take a before photo but took an after one anyway. The area under the fir tree had been full of weed and couch grass so I cleared a bit of that and tidied the edges as well.

I filled the garden cart with the clipping and it wasn’t that long! The moss has got very thick and spongy so I had to fight with a few patches! Although I would rather be in the back garden, the font, which is what the town sees it getting very overgrown so a bit of time out there is needed I think!

Seeing the physio at the hospital tomorrow.
