    Good afternoon everyone.

    I do hope your day/evening is the best it can be. :rose:

    It has been a beautiful day here, nice and sunny, and warm.  II was in the garden.

    I hope Char is ok, we haven’t seen here here in a day or two.

    Too many choices in Wordle today. :scratch:

    Good morning JJ and call to follow.

    Char is going through a difficult time now.

    I had a decent night’s sleep. Dull and dry out there, I will definitely have to water the garden this morning, it might bring on some rain.

    The stain on the toilet ceiling from the old leak has come through again, I gave it two coats of gloss paint and now it needs two coats of emulsion to hide it.

    I got my exercise regime from the doctor, I have to disciple myself to do them. They are strengthening exercises.

    I have to choose the August Challenge today.

    Hi Doug. You did better than I with Wordle.

    I  do my exercises when I fist wake up. If I don’t, I  forget, and I’m too tired at night.

    You might have to ask the professionals about how to fix that stain. Painting is not working.  xx

    Cheerful pansies

    Hi JJ, the usual way is to seal the stain then paint over it.

        Good day all,

        Doug, I get mold on my bathroom ceiling I take off with bleached water then some special paint I bough for it.

        JJ, lovely pansies.  A spring flower here.

        Working on the path is slow and arduous, but satisfying.  More today.

            Good Morning all,

            It is 5:00 a.m. here in still dark and sleepy Oakwood. No rain forecast today, so I will water the garden.

            I picked 3 almost ripe tomatoes from the garden yesterday. They can finish ripening on the counter. I wanted to get them before the squirrel did. I had to throw another one away because it had been bitten in one area. We’ll enjoy them on sandwiches or in a salad with the cucumbers for dinner one evening.

            We got our booster shots yesterday. Only had a teeny bit of discomfort afterward. Larry was afraid to wait until the new booster shots came out in the fall, Bill. He listens to every news story about the spread of the disease in our area and worries about it too much. Ever since his accident last Christmas, he’s become a worrier about his health, much more than I am.

            I ride my stationery bicycle every afternoon at 3:30, Doug. It took me a while to make it become a habit, but now I miss it if something interferes with my ride. As JJ said, pick a time and make yourself do the exercise the doctor gave you every day at the same time until it becomes a habit.

            Pretty pansies, JJ.

            Hope you feel better today, Char.

            SYL,

                Good Morning.  Those pansies look stunning, JJ.  The colours are so vibrant.  Ours are in a hanging basket so I’d have to get a ladder out to photograph them.  Wordle is indeed tough today.  Phew!

                Describe your exercises, Doug, and we can all do them with you!  JJ’s suggestion of first thing in the morning is a good one.

                Bill, I’m glad you’re making progress with your path, and also glad that you’re taking it steady.

                I’ve been deleting emails this morning and unsubscribing from many. When we were shopping online with Iceland they felt it necessary to send me 2 emails every day.  I emailed back a complaint which got me nowhere, so I’ve unsubscribed and stopped ordering from them.  My beloved now goes to the store in a nearby town, but we’re buying a lot less from them.  How not to run a marketing campaign….

                I’m hoping to do some painting today.  I need to re-assemble my Two part “studio” as we needed the dining room when the family were here last weekend, and the utility room needs tidying.  I also need to send out the revised flower rota for church.  I had to text the folk who hadn’t replied to make sure everyone knew their dates.  Text and email make the job much easier.

                Big or gentle hugs to all who need them.

                QS

                In all these things we are more than conquerors.

                    Good evening all.

                    Nice, non cold, day today

                    Gardening  kids came yesterday. What do we do today? I apologetically pointed to the bed where the loquat tree had died, then got chopped down Lurking was a cox comb. Native nasty. Edible by human fruit.  Curse birds bottoms. They almost got rid of the spotted dogs and the blue flowered plague. I was going to say that I’ll spray the remnants, and then they said what we would have said years ago. We’ll get mulch delivered and raid the dump for cardboard. See you next week.
                    :good:

                    I felt old.

                    You have great gardeners Annie.

                    Sylvia, enjoy your tomatoes.

                    Hi QS  My pansies are ein hanging baskets too, but not too high, I can just photograph them.

                    Hi Bill.  You ae doing good work on your path.  I too use bleach in water to get rid of mould.  It was bad at the bottom of the internal stairs, so Alan cleaned it.  I need to do the dining room too by the back door.

                    Good morning all,

                    At work now….hopefully a quick day so that I can get out on the water today and windsurf.  The wind is supposed to be delightful and perfect??

                    The portrait I had been working on since late summer was completed a few weeks ago, matted and framed by my watercolor teacher, and presented to my dog’s vet yesterday.  He LOVED it…said it was one of the nicest presents he had ever gotten……and then five hugs later I was on my way out.  Sure seems that he liked it immensely.  It was my first portrait in watercolor, and I have not done much more in pencil.

                    For you Uschi, as per your request!

                    Keith

                     

                    Enjoy the day all…back tomorrow…

                        Good Morning!!

                        No rain, bright sunshine and a high of 26C with humidity 29C.

                        Saturday Laundry day, Juergen visiting day and maybe Audrey and Steve too. No big achievements here LOL

                        Hi JJ, glad it’s a nice day there and the photos are lovely. As to yesterday’s post CONGRATULATIONS to Tania for doing so well!!!

                        Doug, I have a kind of water stain in the corner of my dinging area ceiling, I have absolutely no idea where it came from and it too is coming through. My little bedroom is right above it?? Re your exercises, they are right, try and do them every day at about the same time and like Sylvia said, after a while you actually look forward to doing them. I do mine after my routine morning house cleaning. You must make a habit of it and if you fall off the wagon it’s hard going back on but force yourself, even missing a day or two makes it hard to get back..

                        Bill, that is quite the project you took on and right in the hottest part of the year too.

                        Sylvia, you are incredibly disciplined with your bike riding. re Larry, having a set-back like the accident makes one realize we are not invincible and doubts start creeping in.

                        QS, you are putting so much time and effort into your grand children’s visits!!!!! I have fallen off the “creating art” wagon and need back on, birthdays are coming up and cards need to be painted LOL

                        Annie, yes, fresh mulch makes everything look good

                        Adena, a sincere WOW from me about your portrait. What a super job, colours are great, fantastic mustache and beard, love the teeth and that shirt is fabulous too as are his eyes, ears – all of it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He is ALIVE!!!!

                        Ellen, I hope Maverick got settled yesterday, it will be hard for him when he needs to go to school without his brothers. re the man with the key to the art club, I wonder what was going through his mind, poor guy, and I hope you can find your silk scarves and other stuff that went missing.

                        Lynn, glad your physio went well and you get such enjoyment from watching sports events, I am happy for you, sure is a great way to pass time.

                        Lulu, that sounds like an interesting book!!

                        (((((((((((((((((((Char)))))))))))))))))) and :heart:

                        Good morning Washers. It looks like another hot and humid day in the making. I am a little better today. My PSW is due in a few minutes but I wanted to check in.  I have caught up reading about all your activities.  I’ll bbl. :bye:
