2026 in Pisticci….a sunny day….

I’ve been sitting watching a video on painting flowers with watercolours.

Am determined  to be able to comfortably use watercolours.

It’s  been a different kind of day.

This morning I went to the comune to get my new ID card. I waited for ages and my back ached. Then a person walked past me and straight into the office. If they had asked to go ahead I’d have probably said,” yes,” but I was a bit frustrated having to wait longer as they took ages. I tried to convince myself that this was my chance to be doing a good deed , but my back was getting really sore   ……and to cap it all , they looked straight at me on their way out and said that I should have more patience!

Oh, and my card hadn’t arrived so I have to go back on Friday.

However I bought wine in the butcher’s  on the way back and the lady there was really sweet.

And I treated myself to an artistic coffee.

I think that was a chocolate and caramel topping.

There is something happening up at the little church.

Maybe they are changing the bell?

I took time to notice that my  tidy downsized garden is looking good.

Mixture of real and painted flowers and some artificial  ones too.
All the plants in this pot were bits I broke off and just stuck in.
Maybe I need to paint my door. I think Fluffy has something to do with the scraped patch.

Today I was in the countryside for the first time in ages visiting friends and having lunch. It was really hot, but good fun. I tried out my new sunglasses.

They are really cute. ( took this photo yesterday while waiting for the courier. It was too hot for polo necks today.)

It’s  windy outside now, I’m cosy inside with 1940s  jazz playing on youtube and wine in a glass that my parents got when they were married. Nice.

Cheers🍷🍷
