Very sniffly with a head cold and sneezes the last couple of days, but not feeling too bad in myself. Hope it stays that way…

Tonight’s sketch - 3 days left! Mr P found this old tin lid y’day, buried amid some concrete towards the back of our garden where he has been digging to re-do the surface there. Seems these are from the 1950s (our terrace was built in the 1920s) - priced at nine old pence (9d)!! Before my time! 🤪

Today’s daily Sept painting from life… Been a bit ‘meh’ so decided to do a little sketch of my Emotional Support Chicken keyring. He recently went away to provide some comfort to a friend who was going through a tough time but he’s back with me now and needs to be reunited with my keyring. 💕🫶🏻🐤🤗🩷

Better get to sleep after another day in which I barely touched the sides! 😵‍💫 Up early to work a bit before the funeral of a dear friend’s lovely mum. From our friendship, I learned one of her fave flowers was the forget-me-not. Managed to find this brooch on Amazon (thanks free Prime month).

Yikes. Suddenly realised just now that last night I’d left my car in a zone not covered by our residential parking permit. Should have moved it by 11am. No ticket on the windscreen though so hoping (praying!) my misdemeanour was missed. Ugh.

My husband already had a gnome in the garden, which I’ve never been keen on, so he was VERY amused when Trevor rocked up. Needless to say, the two gnomes are now friends. Im rather fond of Trevor, strangely.

So, at Pilates, we have a loyalty card that gets stamped for every day you attend a class. Today I filled my card, so the prize was a rummage in the ‘pink tat lucky dip’, and Trevor was my prize! 🤣🩷

Actually felt proper cold today. Turned the shower temperature up to 42°C tonight. Now snuggled up in bed while Mr P is with friends at the pub. Soft fleecy blanket is retrieved from the bed drawer and on the top, and I am ready for lights out! Winter duvet soon I think!…

Just been for my breast screening. The radiographer told me lots of people don’t turn up for them. Yet this morning she had to break the news to a couple of youngsters that they’d found something. It’s offered FREE on the NHS and I’m so grateful for this service. Ladies, get yer girls checked!!

Trying to do a sketch a day this month. It’s another dull day in the weather department so inspo was from the Erigeron by the garden path. Their pink & white joviality always brings a smile, even if they’re starting to fade. Maybe the next predicted heatwave will entice them back for a bit!
