Week 2 of self-portrait Wednesday. Would love to hear of other artists joining in! Lauren http://paintersartjournal.blogspot.com/ has had a go. Let me know if you’re in too by leaving a comment.
Today I am feeling a bit sad. My Grandmother’s husband passed away suddenly, after going into hospital with heart fibrulations. It should have been a fairly routine thing apparently to regulate it again and send him home after a few days, but complications set in as they sometimes do. He was in his mid 70’s, and was still working as a builder and fix-anything person until the end. I keep thinking of all the unfinished jobs he’s left behind, the TV shows that he will never know the ending to, and the fact that he never went home to his own bed. None of which matter really, it’s just a reminder of how fragile we all are in our place in the world.
Not sure when the funeral will be yet, and my Grandmother is dealing with it all very well, which is a blessing. I’ll go and give her a big cuddle today and enjoy the sunshine and my place in the world today.
Tonight I’m going to Dr Sketchy, which is always enormous fun, and I really can’t wait for that.



you’re hiding again! hahahha cool photo anyhow:)
..sorry for your loss also. So sad. Glad your Grandma is doing okay considering:) I’m sure the good Dr will pep you up tonight with a good dose of Miss SugarPuss!
Thanks Daniel!
MIss Sugarpuss would cheer anyone up
Yeah sorry to hear about your grandma’s husband too, so sad.
The portrait photo is great! It’s so hard to get a decent photo of yourself with the camera at arms length away isn’t it?
Sorry about your loss…..I recently lost someone a few months ago. I know how you feel. It is always very sad to loose someone you love. Please know that my thoughts are with you.
Glad to see you are keeping up with your self-portraits etc! You go girl!
