Good morning all from a muggy and very wet Glasgow.
I was woken during the night by flashes of lightening, but no thunder. Quite strange.
It's very dark here and there have been quite a few thunder claps.
Grandmattie, my DH would have Christmas dinner, no matter what the temperature is!
I was very restless yesterday and didn't know what to be up to, so decided to revamp a tired old rocking chair with chalk paint. This is your fault Kalu, you put the idea in my head
This was totally the wrong thing to do! It was so hot that the paint was drying on the brush and I now have one almighty mess to rectify.
The chair looks wonderful from a great distance, up close it looks as if it has been artexed!!! ? It is going to take me, DH ages to sand it down! .
Because of my lack of dexterity, I was covered in paint from top to toe, it was even in in my pants. Don't ask me how it got there, I don't know. .
I looked a right sight. Realising my sun hat was up the loft with my holiday things, I borowed DH's golf hat, (don't tell him). I have to get the paint off it before he plays on Monday. ?
Half way through, I realised that I really wasn't up to it, I'm still feeling a bit odd after my treatment.
I then realised I couldn't get up, (I was sitting on the grass painting), the only thing to hold onto was the wet chair! My only option was to crawl along the grass until I could pull my self up on something. Anyone seeing me, would have thought I was mad!
I really will need to get an Echo Dot for the garden to summon DH! ?
Poor DH had to make dinner, (a very unusual occurance), I just felt so awful, I think the excessive heat didn't help!
Anyway feeling back to normal today. It's DH's seventieth birthday tomorrow, ( how did he get to seventy so quickly?) so I have to make a birthday cake. He is not a birthday cake type of person, but has requested an iced gingerbread, with sultanas. A nice easy option for me!
Some chocolate brownies may be on the cards too.
Have a great day all, and special hugs for Bluesapphire and all who have sorrow in their lives..
