Messing about

I suddenly realised it has been a long time since I posted on this blog.
I tend to use the other one more and yet this one has more followers, weird.
In doing some tidying up I found a pack of canvas boards, hauled out my seldom used portfolio oil pastels, then a stencil with acrylic paint and finally a scribble on top using the lyra was crayons.
I dont think it looks much like anything any one would hang on a wall but perhaps it will get me back into playing with sketch and paint.
Things have been a bit hectic here, two of our rainwater tanks fell apart so finally we have two smart new plastic ones, and they are almost fully installed. Of course now it will probably stop raining and we want them full before summer arrives.
The changeable so called spring weather, more like back to winter has made my arthritis at times almost unbearable, but the good news is my knee and walking are much better. With spring the grasses start to flower and my hay fever rears its ugly head,
apart from that  we are going about our business, getting the odd nice day in amongst the rain, walking the beach and the cliffs and generally managing to enjoy things in the midst of the odd worry.
I think you might call that normal for our time of life!!
