Often think about getting the old pencil out now and again ........
I can't do visual art, and I don't get the point of most of other people's art unless it looks like what it's meant to be or has particularly attractive lines and colours.
Domestic? Pah! Just call me Martha...
At 17 I wanted to draw nidey ladies and at 30 + I , erm ..... argument fell down slightly there I feel
Get plenty of rest , you who need it!
I had a fantastic oil-painting of a woman in the nud which was painted for me by the girl who was to become my then boyfriend's next lover after I slithered out of his grasp. She was lovely - far too good for him. The painting was lovely too. About 3' by 5' of canvas, which I just pinned to the wall without a frame. Sadly, it evaporated between house moves when I was a hospital doctor.
WW, I like your new pic much more than the eye.
SP, I'm planning to be at the next social in London, I like the eclectic mix of people - a good bunch.
VRap, know the problem, it's always hard finding presents for worthy folks, and my father has learned to look suitably grateful for all my efforts over the years. Fact is, there's nothing he really wants, except perhaps seeds from the T&M catalogue, and how could I even think of getting that one right.
I have more pictures than wall - the downside of downsizing :-)
Hippo, hope your snooze helped a bit. Are you tapering now?
Its not as though Ive trained properly
or maybe not
Time for my evening ward round
Ready meal on return:)))
I've got some letters to do. Then I'll drop them off at the surgery tomorrow before starting my day off. My husband and I plan to do a spot of shopping.
I have bindweed, a present from previous owner :-)
I have just completed a 4.5M (ish) walk with no blisters!
On top of my pretty awful R4L effort this morning at least I have "completed" 7.6M in total.
Well done Helen on 1/2, thats great.
Have not tried the new running ones as I only got them yesterday but I am going to use them on the treadie tomorrow - 5K again.
New Balance walking shoes appear to be brilliantly comfortable. I wore them yesterday for the first time and again today after R4L and they are good.
Considering I ran R4L in the wrong shoes (over-pronation ones = not good with orthotics to correct over-pronation!) my feet have been very well behaved.
How are yours after your 1/2 - which one was it?
I don't have bindweed now, but I have creeping jenny and alchemilla which a "friend" gave me - by the time I'd eradicated the creeping jenny from my own garden, it had established itself next door too and it keeps coming back. I get brambles and couch grass from both sides and ground elder and some sort of rapid-growing mint from the bottom of the garden. And self-seeded spiraeas, for which I can only blame myself.
RD, it was the St Albans Half, my 'local' (and a good one!)which meant I could walk from the finish straight into the gym for a quick 5 minutes cycling, then do some stretches before wandering back outside to catch Junior Wheels and wander back to their place for a cuppa. I find that walking for a while after a long run does seem to speed recovery.
Even the 5K this morning made me tired and with a walk on top I am now going to bed.
Night all
Sweet dreams.
