Going down again.
And in front of this workspace (which is actually on an antique wooden carved chest!), is one of J's sea paintings.
He only did this one of these rougher seas (he only liked to do calm seas), but no one bought it. Anyway we were in Fleet, and it was the end of the week and he was disappointed no one had bought it. So when he went for a wander, I wrapped it up, hid it, and popped the money in the box. When he came back I told him I had sold it. Oh where are they he said, I want to talk with them...was it a man or a woman he said? Oh I can't see them I said, it was a man...
Well you get caught out with lies don't you....
I framed it and hung it up in a room that was not used. Of course J went in it. It turned out he was so pleased that I had bought it, but was cross I had paid for it, and said he would have given it to me. So, I said no when he wanted to give me the money back, and said I was glad I had bought it! He was laughing..

Looks murky outside. We have rain...
Take care...
Be good (not)...
Have fun...
Hugs if needed...
Yay @PenguinMum fantastic fbg - if the wind has dropped hang out the bunting. My dashboard has nice green lights for sleep score, resting pulse and weight. In an imperfect world that will just have to do. https://genius.com/Bob-dylan-shelter-from-the-storm-lyrics Hope the lyrics are useful for you @gennepher since I am too often less mindful of others Bit late but I've only just opened the box with this song in it (Verse 4 has an eerie resemblance to my LC journey this last 18 months - maybe for ever, who knows)

Morning All. 5.3 today which is good for me. Noticed nice stretch in the evening yesterday which is welcome after two awful storms. Echoing @trick60 my heart goes out to those people whose homes have been flooded. The most basic human need is to be able to come home and close your door behind you. The old saying an Englisman’s home is his castle. But Boris doesnt think it merits a Cobra meeting, not an emergency.
Hope you all have agood Tuesday. Stay well, stay safe.
Glad the lyrics were useful. Right now any small wins/useful deeds are like my flood defences against a rising tide. That comment was more important than you could possibly know. Thanks. Now I need to log off and lurk - quit while I'm ahead style of thing. (loved the painting and the story - thanks for sharing)Thank you very much for considering me. I appreciate it @ianpspurs
The lyrics are useful.

Thanks @gennepher and please no more storms especially in vulnerable areas. I absolutely love your dramatic sea picture and I would have loved to buy the original. How good were you and J together. You and Popeye take care.
@dunelm hope the exercises really help sounds like quite a discipline! You always turn out great fbg numbers so wondering what sort/quantity of pasta you can tolerate. TIA. I love good meat but I also enjoy non meat days so I am with you on thatbut cant bear the idea of “fake meat” so I wouldnt be any good as a Vegan.
I've let my control slip several times Geordie who hasn't...11.2 at the doctors office likely there was a certain amount of stress involved which may have influenced the number...you just have to do the best you can when you can.I had a bad morning reading at the doctor's
