This and that

We have had an election. At least those in power have won without having to go green or to a collection of female independents who were backed by a million/billionaire with inherited money. All I can say is what are we coming to. I am too old for all this, but in being old I have seen a lot of governance come and go, some good and some bad but have never seen so much nonsense written about women. Some photos from the last few days. Mad birds, drives around my beautiful area, they keep me sane! Now to bury my head and keep my thoughts to myself.

I have been playing

As you can see I have been playing, having fun in my sketchbook. It has been an interesting week. Flu shot on Thursday and having a potential nasty cut off my ear on Friday. I find these things seem to take longer to get over than they used to.

collections

It is cold and damp outside but comfortable inside so I took a couple of inside photos, the collection of knitted animals one will go eventually when the new great grandchild is born. My easter cactus are flowering and cheering the house up and I have finally finished the latest beaded heart, a green one this time, it has taken me ages but is now finished. I do have some problems seeing things these days. We had 27 mm overnight, more than most people but I am not ccomplaining the garden had got very dry but it is getting a bit late for the break in the season,especially now it has got cold.
