Apologies if anyone is still reading this on a regular basis (apart from Barb - I love that you still visit)
I have been very bad at updating - no reason - just been forgetting
I will aim to do better as my blog is my record for me of our life. In fairness the last few days we have done little - possibly why I forgot to blog.
I have a mess of new scrapping to share
Bluebells a couple of weeks ago
A bridge photo from last month that I liked
Our first meet up with neighbours for a picnic in the garden - it felt good to get back together
a couple of digital pages using collections by Indigo Designs by Anna
Nigel had a massive bruise from his second vaccination (though no side effects thankfully) and he let me decorate it like the stickers (neither of us got a sticker )
A photo from Hamworthy where we love to walk
another of Route 66 using new stamps and papers
Plus I painted yesterday and did this painting of Indy
Today I am thankful for
- a walk on the beach this morning
- scrapping and painting time
I'm terrible at keeping up my blog, but I think you are doing fantastic. I always love seeing your posts when I decide to sign into my blog reader. Loved the stripes on the 4th photo, especially. I am experimenting more with stripes, although none are ready for prime time. Glad you, Nigel, and the kitties are doing well.

Gorgeous painting of Indy, what paints did you use? I have been doing some painting this past couple of months, following Charles Evans, and Paul Clarke on YouTube. I have been enjoying it very much. But I still haven’t got my colour mix quite right!
That is a very unique badge Nigel has!
I was bruised after my first vaccination,but just a red mark after the second one

I read your blog whenever a new one pops up on Feedly. I’ve enjoyed it very much for years now. I’ve only left a comment a few times. I should try to be better about that. I really love seeing your travels, both near and far. Although I live in the US, you have seen much more of it than I have.
I’m always inspired by your lovely scrapbook pages. And your paintings are amazing.

You are forgiven for the "forgetting," by showing us all such beautiful layouts. I really like the one with the kittens and the one with the bluebells. The layout with Nigel's "tattoo" is very humorous. I love that stamp of the USA and how each state's name is written into the space... so clever. And, oh, that stunning painting of Indy takes my breath away. Your detail work is unbelievable! <3
