But I must have been so tired. Slept for nearly 12 hours.

After getting organised I thought that my first job of the day would be to tidy up my garden. Starting with cutting the ” lawn”.

Next I ordered 2 sets of arch supports to glue into my sandals from last year because it’s worth a try. And I haven’t seen any sandals I like better.

It looks like I might be mural painting most of this month .I’ll see about more possible work on Friday.

I am officially on holiday until Monday. (That is I’ve decided I need a few days to get myself organised. And I’m the boss.)

I’ve had the door open all day to get rid of the slight damp smell. I’ve also been visited by snails/slugs who left shiny trails behind them. One even climbed up the front of my pellet stove. Cleared that up. Yuck!

Made lunch for 4 days. Back to chickpeas , tomatoes and veg.

I’ve had time to catch up on my favourite vlogs. I have 3. One is set in Positano, one is about a Dutch man restoring a house in the alps and my latest one is about a Dutch watercolourist.

Out of curiosity I tried some of my frames with a few of my latest paintings.

Having done that I thought that maybe 2 of my flower paintings would look better with a different background. I used a coloured glaze.

After that I was a bit bored and decided to play with my new acrylic brush crayons. ( I have a pile of watercolours and drawings using crayons which could be improved.)

And I found 2 tiny paintings lying about , which were not safe from my ” little bit of fixing ”

And now it’s a very small wine time as I’m going out later. I’d better get thinking about what to wear soon as it’s a lot warmer here than when I left.

Not a bad first day back home.

Cheers🍷🍷
