WOYWW 640

A nice round number today, and I am feeling 'round' so think it is time I took myself in hand.  All through lockdown I was fine, stayed a nice reasonable weight but as soon as I start actually going in a supermarket I start eating all the wrong things.  Too much temptation on the shelves.  I must learn to have a bit more restraint when I go shopping later this morning.  I've had more exercise but that does not make up for all the munchies I have had.  Confession:  I am a chocoholic!

Confession over, now to my desk.  Yes, away again but home later today so once more it is a different desk you are seeing.  Actually taken Tuesday morning I thought I would treat you to a view outside on the patio - to the woods that surround us when we are up here.

Obviously I have turned my Journal to another page, not the page I am working on as that is work in process for tomorrow.  At the far end of the coffee table is a box with some images in and on top are my stencils from AALL & Create.  I was using blues and greens so I have my tiny Distress Inks out in a small tin storing those shades and there are also two brushes that I use, one for each colour.  So that is it - my desk for WOYWW for today.  Want to join in?  Follow the link and we'll see you there.

That geranium you can see has been the most prolific plant I have ever had.  Endless flowers, I think it could really do with a bigger pot now.  I've cut lots of flowers off as they have died but it still goes on producing. Well worth the £3.99 from the local (to home) garden centre.

Monday was quite a misty morning down on the sea front but it was lovely and warm and we had a good long walk spotting lots of Sandpipers, Curlews and Cormorants.  Unfortunately they were a bit too far out for me to take a photo that would be worth saving so here's a photo I took of the water and some boats - it was as still as a mill pond.  You can see how misty it was when you look across at the Lake District - you can hardly see the mountains in the distance.

Well, that's it for this morning, nothing else to report.  Had my eyes tested, just a slight change in distance but not enough to warrant definitely getting new specs but I did as I want new frames.  Funny though as I took an old pair of specs with me as I wanted as close to that design as possible,  Luckily I got some very close so I will be a happy bunny when they arrive in two weeks time.

See you around. x
