 No desk I'm  afraid..... I'm  away visiting.....another hospital!!!  

If I'm  home later, I'll update....

UPDATE:

Back home safe and sound with a lot more tablets!!!  

Quite an experience!  

Staff were all wonderful as per usual, not much sleep . . . . then discharged

Left to get home on my own . . . . . in my night clothes . . . ..  18.00hrs . . . . dark, wet Autumn night.

Not eligible for hospital transport so I had no option but to go on the bus . . . . but would they let this little old lady in her nightclothes outside a hospital on the bus!!  that was the question. 

And how was I going to even walk to the bus stop without any stick or walker . . . . then again through town to my second bus . . . .  then a 'normal' 20mins walk to my house . . . . very difficult questions.

The main problem was that I did not fit the criteria for hospital assisted transport as I did not need oxygen and was mobile (no wheelchair).  I don't think the fact I was in my night clothes and had no personal transport came into the question . . . . I was very upset and the nursing staff were very apologetic but it was out of their control . . . .

In the end I phoned my local taxi company, the other side of the City, and asked them if they would be able to come and take me home . . .  they said yes but it would be very expensive.    We agreed a price and then I was taken out to the taxi (in a wheelchair) and came home.

Aide de Memoire

If taken by ambulance to hospital, please remember to take a set of outside clothes, shoes, Walker or Wheelchair, enough money for an expensive taxi ride . . .  and a Mac!!!

WOYWW - What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday! 

Visit here to find a friendship ring that goes on  . . .and on . . .and on . . at least 750 times!!

Very short post today . . . 

I am having a 'sort of' tidy up . . . 

The quicker I get this lot sorted, the quicker I will be able to start crafting!!

Just emptying boxes . . . . exploding all over the place . .  

Hopefully, I will also file my stamps and dies instead of just throwing them into this bag after I have used them . . . 

I started 'putting' them in this bag cos I found that I would need one of these stamps/dies for the next card I made and so on and on it went . . . .  THEY REALLY NEED FILING""

so now you know what I'm up to, I'm going to visit you and see what you're up to . . . 

Screen still has my beautiful swan . . . .

The Desk:

au naturel . . .

It is posting time again so I am 'up to my ears' in cards, envelopes, labels, stamps (rich man's playthings!) and all things postal.

Great fun.

Centre is my new stash, went in for some adhesives and these fell into my basket. .  some superb colours . . . I really don't have these . . .  I NEED them for my envelopes . . . what the heck . .  they look yummy!  lol

These are next to be enveloped . . . Red/Brown colour and Cats Coins.

On the right, some ATCs and Coins received for September, I have yet to blog them.

Lots going on today but visits will be made . . .  

The screen is very special to me at the moment . . . 

Old Friends

 I have to say goodbye to an old friend who has been with me for over twenty years . . .

Welcome new friend, I hope we will be as happy as Mr Blue

Strangers are just friends we haven't met yet.

The desk

I'm waiting for paint to dry!

I am really!!  I am creating ATCs using the Neurographic art again, this time on canvas with Acrylic Paints.  It is teaching me patience . . . .

I blame those little tubes . . . .  I went in to buy some double sided tape . . .  they tempted me . . . I have big tubes, bottles, metallic paints etc  . . . but these little tubes of brightness . . . .

I have a pad of canvas paper, it doesn't see daylight very often but I used a page to experiment with these paints and  . . .  Neurographic art.

It took some time to find a black pen that would flow on the canvas but I managed it . . .a Sharpie you might know!!

This is my fifth day of  painting.  One has to wait for each colour to dry . . . . like I said . . . patience . . 

As you can see the canvas is rather large . . . . the colours are so much brighter IRL.

I have used some of the small tubes and some metallic paints, I shall do another one at some future date with just shades of one colour . . . . why?  Cos I can!!

                                         

These are my 'wipe off' sheets . . .  I just keep adding to them . . . .  they WILL become masterboards.

The Screen

Just in case you wondered what was behind the Library . . . . .

Three Years . . . . .

        "Silly Boy!"   Out in the rain . . . .

Three years today you left me . . . . 

I had no idea it would be so hard . . . .

I had no idea the pain of losing you would just go on and on . . . .

I miss you so so very much . . .

. . .  and I'm so very lonely . . .   

missing your silly jokes . . . . I tell them out loud to myself . . . 

Three years . . . .
