Good morning. Stopped sleeping (war on woke, remember) well before 4 which is often one of the joys of LC for me. Never accompanied by satisfactory A1c. No fbg as I don't see that it will reveal anything useful just at the minute. Julie is in Southampton as pregnant DIL is in hospital being monitored and we have a granddaughter missing mum and needing care. I think that as DIL is a nurse on the teenage cancer ward and works 12 hr+ shifts she just needs a rest. Scan shows she and baby girl (not another one) are fine. An ex Zimbabwean cricketer is ripping out and replacing all out loos, baths and showers and turning the rooms less just not me. His mate has honoured his word and beat the best price for the hardware Julie found on t'internet All good fun but I have mucho tea, almond milk, avocado, salad, 5 litres each of EVO and mayo and plenty of tins of mackerel Hope all goes well for you fine people. I do find the BCP more to my taste as an ageing fogey. This is such an elegant way to ask for everything I wish you all today: those things which are requisite and necessary, as well for the body as the soul. Pip, pip old toots.
If your health centre will do one. As rare as hens teeth here.6.2 at 0520
my next hba1c will be interesting.
lovely sunset colours. I like your treatment of the mighty Tryfan. Is that Milestone Butress?Carrying on with mountains and waterfalls. Tryfan and the waterfall I painted yesterday seen from Nant Ffrancon with Benglog, Ogwen falls below. Another of my favourite walks. This face of Tryfan gets the last of the setting sun the valley lightens up and the rock face of the mountain glows. I have been a bit bold with the colours I need to take a leaf out of @geefull book and use a lighter approach, ah well ''tis done. Watercolour A4 about 1 hour with drying times.
I have included the early stage of the painting as a thumb nail before the detail was added.View attachment 44465

Lovely couple of sketches - will they be painted? Long lazy lake with a sky to guide you towards the mountains. Timothy and Pru on the Puffergood evening all
4.9/4.4 yesterday (pick a finger) and 4.2 today
BT are still digging their trench, I think they are laying in new fibre cable for a group of house sites.
Our internet is up and down still. I must try to catch up with the posts I've missed
I look forward to seeing the art for the last couple of days, I've missed it
Hope your day is treating you well

He's a coffee man. Fortunately, tiles and hardware stored at suppliers to collect as needed. We have effectively lived with things boxed up either here or previous house for over a year. COVID stalled things here for about 6 months as builders were busy. This house renovation is a small gamble based on information about US military staying around here and sensible purchase price. DIL seems fine thanks. Take care.Your home seems in upheaval and you are going to be busy supplying pleantyof cups of tea.
Hugs for Julie and DIL situation hope all is well for DIL.
All the best for DIL - yes, rest is probably called for given the occupation. No distraction cricket talking - enjoy your tea.Good morning.

DIL seems fine with rest thanks but still in the same hospital where she works. Her parents - in France - were a GP and Consultant gynaecologist who she likes to be kept away from in such times. The guy ripping and replacing played against the son whose wife it is. Also a really good chance for Julie to spend time with our granddaughter. I'd completely forgotten about teaAll the best for DIL - yes, rest is probably called for given the occupation. No distraction cricket talking - enjoy your tea.
Thank you, like I said a bit too bold a colour, might try a more Pastel version. I suppose one of those North Face Crags is Milestone Butress, certainly not a route up for me.lovely sunset colours. I like your treatment of the mighty Tryfan. Is that Milestone Butress?
Hard times indeed and yes, fill your day with interesting distractions. Enjoy your day, sounds great, especially the plank walking - pirate voices only.Good Morning and 6.5 for me today, back in those flipping 6s.
Entertaining today. The other two members of our Recorder Quartet are arriving for lunch and then some making music at a social distance. With the weather getting cooler I suddenly find myself stressed about getting heat verses ventilation right. Also going to be interesting with our no floor situation, a bit like walking the plank. Then there is the question of Covid risk, everything we seem to do which is getting less and less socially is becoming stressful and worrying. I will strive to live by the rules but have no desire to become a hermit. Hard times.
Fill your day with interest. Keep safe.
Hug for the worry but enjoy the music making. As regards being a hermit, that would be right up my street really - being an only child was a big influence. I was totally ok with the false shielding letter (like a pig in whatsit) - I did debate whether to tell Julie and the boys it was a mistake. Does that make me a bad person?Good Morning and 6.5 for me today, back in those flipping 6s.
