Back To It

Today was much more productive than the last few days.

Even though I still didn’t get out of bed til pretty close to noon, I was able to get a bit done.

The drizzling rain hindered my efforts to get my art space unpacked and organised.

To be able to move forward with that goal, I need to remove my trike, Adoring Husband’s bike and a few other bits and pieces to give me the room to move around and get properly organised. 

The rain prevented me from doing that today.

I unpacked one small box, cleared some paperwork from the dining table, found a home for some stuff that was delivered last week, did 2 loads of washing, watched a movie with AH, did a roast chook and veggies for a late lunch.

Oh … and I showered for the first time in three days 😳 and washed my hair.

I could smell myself 😵‍💫

Tomorrow morning I have to be up early to meet the carpet cleaner at the shop and then I hand over the keys.

All over red rover.

Last week, I sent a package to my Melbourne family and in it was a basic ‘How to Draw’ book for Chicklet who is 11 yrs of age. She has shown a real artistic talent and drawing/sketching is something she enjoys.

This is what she’s done so far and now I’m inspired!

When I purchased her book, I chose one for me too. “The Complete Book of Drawing - Essential Skills For Every Artist”.

I haven’t drawn anything yet, but have been reading it today and both refreshing my knowledge as well as picking up some new tips.

I feel like I have too many other important jobs to do before I can reward myself with some art. So my inspiration will go towards finishing those jobs first.

Tomorrow I have to be at the shop early to meet the carpet cleaner and after that I’ll be returning the keys to the Real Estate.

All over red rover.

AH and I will be making a trip into The Bay after that. Things to do, people to see, places to go.

So now I lay me down to sleep.

Nite all.
