I came home feeling good and went to put stale corn chips out for the squirrels and birds and fell./slipped... Down the back steps. Yes. I told you natural grace is where? OH it hurt. Where you say-- my right leg truly went at an angle I thought only frogs could do.. and I could go on but you get the idea...So I've been grumpy as can be and hobbling around, sore, but I'm fine. no worries. Just letting you know where I've been..
Today I was growling at the watercolor paper and saw a seed pod I brought in last week, so I painted it just now and put 2 tiny hummingbird feathers to the right of it. I used my iridescent paint for the seeds and feathers as they both were shining.
I'm going to go read awhile. Do you have a heating pack? I think everyone needs one. Take a pillow case put inside it ,3 cups of inexpensive dried rice, you may add herbs that smell good if you like or not. Tie the opening of the pillowcase into a knot and zap for 2 minutes in the microwave. Test before you use this.. It could burn you-- so make sure it's not too hot. then place the warm bag anywhere it hurts.not on bare skin..I need to get busy and paint.I''ll rest first. Talk to you soon.love,Diana
Thanks Maywyn, Forgive me for grumbling too much. love to you, Diana
ReplyDeleteOh Diana, I thought I was the most fallingist person around,!!
ReplyDeleteI know just how that feels , I've fallen in every imaginable ways, and have broken a few bones to prove it.. Thank goodness you didn't (I hope ) do that. !
Taking a cue from you I've been painting just about every day.. today I've done a flamingo, and will do another... different angle of course .. Your right about picking up that brush every day.. I seem to be flowing , not that a sunflower and a flamingo is flowing, but you know what I mean... LOL !
Take care of that leg.. hugs, BJ
Oh,no! No more of that!!
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon. I was in a class yesterday (wish it was yours!!!)and painted an iris. Today I'm working on a new little butterfly.
Dear Diana - hope you are okay...sounds like you have a good plan for recovering. You are amazing - love your gorgeous seed pod. You certainly keep me inspired to paint every day. Take care friend and hope you are better soon.
ReplyDeleteThe painting is so delicate, so beautiful. I hope you are okay and hope the birds appreciate you putting out things for them during the cold months.
ReplyDeleteSorry to read about your tumble, Diana. Hope the heating pack and rest helped.
ReplyDeleteI've fallen down stairs before and you are right. It does hurt! Hope today finds you feeling better but I suspect you will be more sore today and possibly tomorrow as well. The little seed pod is delightful!
