Another beautiful day in lockdown. It almost feels like Mother Nature is laughing at us. I have a suspicion that the moment we are again free from all this it will turn into a Siberian winter. Thank God we bought that air-con. So, I enrolled in the online class that Dyan did live yesterday ( with being at work I couldn't join in live) but I did watch and tried my hand at the project today. It isn't finished yet, as there is a lot to the page, but I've made a good start. I'm stamping all the elements out separately and colouring them in using my polychromos pencils which you can't rush as you build up the colour slowly then hand blend with zest it ( which is a kind of dorso oil) I will post a picture up once it's done.
Well you can't escape the Coronavirus news much can you? I try to as much as possible, but I'll tell you one thing that boils my piss. The people who so obviously don't understand the word Shielding. It means you stay at home, and let other people go out and bring your supplies to you. Not go out with others of your household to another area so that you won't be spotted! You are being paid to stay in and around your home. If you go out and catch something nasty, you'll take up a bed or ICU in the hospital that could be used to help someone who perhaps has caught COVID 19 in the process of looking after others or is a key worker. If you don't understand the terminology look in a dictionary. Or if you think it doesn't apply to you get over yourself, you ain't that special. Honestly, this plague brings out the best and worst in people I swear.
Enough of this virus stuff, it's going to drive us all insane. I had a lovely call from Sue today, it was great to hear from her, and to know she is doing ok. Working hard decorating the house. Going for her allowed hour walk. I miss our catch-ups, but we will have one big one when this is all over.
And later on we had a socially distanced visit from Charlotte and Lauren and the dogs that they walk for their neighbour. One's a Westie called Molly and the other is a Schnauzer called Olly, they are really cute and friendly...
Right that's about it for now... More musings ( and ranting maybe!) Stay safe, stay in and stay sane...
