It was 4 am I was abruptly woken up with a smack in the gob,Mavis was getting up. After she came back to bed I was wide awake. So I made us a coffee. can’t you sleep she asked. No I am awake now so we lay and watched TV until 6 am. I decided to get up.
I decided after tea last night that I would sit and finish my painting. So determined to.Thats what I did. It wasnt as daunting as I feared. In fact it began to quickly come together. Some rigging here ,rigging there. A few lampposts a couple of men chatting. Soon it was at that point that I couldn’t do any more.
Its been a challenge and I have spent so many hours at it since before christmas, but at times pulling hair but on the whole I am pleased with the outcome. When I was asked if I could do it I admit I had doubts that it would turn out so well.
I walked into the lounge to peek at it propped up on the mantle. Just to see if I was still happy with it. Because I was here before and changed a lot. But No it still looks ok.
My problem now is to find something else to paint.

I found her searching drawers. What you lost I asked. A package. What sort of Package. I white one. Oh here it is. What is it I asked. It’s a border for the bathroom. Can you change the one in the bathroom please..
So I ended up stripping the old one-off and replacing it. I didn’t expect to be doing that today!!!
I think that I am going to edit my painting again. I will change a bit of it after dinner tonight.
