An easy rhythm

Our life has settled into an easy rhythm at the moment. we are waking a bit later since the change int he clocks but I don't feel any real need for the days to be longer so waking later is fine.

We walk for almost an hour everyday and now know our neighbourhood in quite a bit of detail! But the weather has been lovely so it nice to get our daily exercise outside - who knows, even that may be stopped.

We both have hobbies to keep us occupied.

I finished one of my most difficult paintings today - the Guildhall in Poole. There is leeway when painting fur. But a detailed building shows every mistake and this painting sure shows a lot of them, but what is life if not a challenge eh!

It is a watercolour from a photo I took last year.

 

 

I also have two new releases from Pickleberrypop to share.

 

 

I love anything with cameras and film strips so this was gorgeous to work with

 

 

 

And this one was just fun to make

I fear the lockdown is turning me into a domestic goddess though. Today I baked bread from scratch and didn't use the breadmaker and I batch cooked a load of lasagna for the freezer. And both were delicious.

 

I hope that wherever you are you are staying safe and well.

 

Today I am thankful for

• domesticity
• fresh baked bread
• a project finished
• Kira being no worse and possibly a little better

 

And int he words of Eleanor Farjeon's poem - cats really do sleep anywhere
