While my poppy painting remains upside down waiting for the bottom edge to dry , I’m thinking about what to do next.
I have 16 medium /small canvases to paint with local scenes for the summer.
Then this morning I moved my laptop over to my desk and checked out my writing app. I made the writing bigger and decided that feeling that I had problems seeing what I was writing and blurry vision was quite fixable.
Then I had a look at the Redbubble site which I had stopped using for similar reasons.
I tried sitting further back with my reading glasses on and everything looked pretty okay.
Sorted!
Having organised myself so far I went off uptown . .
It was one of these ” no matter what I do , my glasses steam up”, days so I put my glasses in their box and shoved it in my pocket. Blurred is better than fogged.
I’m surprised how I forget that I am not seeing so well.
I managed to spot a new vino rosso, primitivo abboccato. Cheers!
And take more photos of less pretty things.



This afternoon I checked my flowers for the first time in ages and decided they needed watering.

I moved another 7 or 8 bags of pellets through from the gallery into the cupboard. I am using quite a lot, but only another 2 months and I will probably only need heating in the evenings.
My latest street scene left last night. It is probably my 5th version of that particular view. I think its my best so far.

I forgot. I also cooked a whole bag of chickpeas this morning. I had soaked them over night. Now I’ve got 5 bags in the freezer.
One bag, a tin of chopped tomatoes , some dried pepperoncini and half a bag of frozen minestrone will make lunch for 4 days.
I think this weekend I might finish the poppy painting and make some more plans.
But now it’s wine time.
Cheers 🍷🍷
