Listening to: A blackbird singing his evening song...
Reading: The Rainbow Gate by Freda Warrington
Watching: My husband learning Pi...
Drinking: Lemonade with a naughty shot of vodka!
Been taking lots of garden pics. Trying to take my mind off my sister because I've been worrying about her these past few days. She's just been told she has an ectopic pregnancy so will need surgery to sort it out. I'm keeping fingers, legs - everything crossed - that all goes ok for her.
But yeah, the garden - my first year of having a proper garden - is proving delightful! Flowers popping up left, right, and centre. Apparently, it was designed by a landscape gardener who planted in a way that there is always something flowering, or something like that. We've already had nesting blackbirds right beside the conservatory - they had three chicks. I was hoping they'd use the same nest for their second brood but they have gone elsewhere. Still, they are back in the garden all the time to feed from the bird table, along with the other regulars - 2 robins, 2 big fat pigeons, 2 grey doves, a mistle thrush, lots of sparrows, bluetits, finches, sparrows, starlings, and a teeny tiny wren.
We've also had the hedgehogs return - yay! - so I've been putting out a plate of Spike's Dinner on the patio for them each evening. They are a couple (going by how frisky they got one evening ) and I'm hoping they will bring their babies when they have them.
Anyhoo...gotta go...I'm working on doll no 9 and am determined to get her face half decent this time.
P.S...As always, thanks for the interest in my work. For the comments, favs and watches. I try to thank everyone individually but if I can't for any reason, I do so here.

Picnic At Hanging Rock
Frodo: I wish the ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.
Gandalf: So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.
To see a world in a grain of sand And a heaven in a wild flower Hold infinity in the palm of your hand And eternity in an hour
William Blake
Is all that we see or seem But a dream within a dream?.
Edgar Allan Poe
Fill yourself with desire and see only illusion, Empty yourself of desire and understand the great mystery of things.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Do not fear to hope, for every time we smell the autumn's dying scent, we know the primrose time will come again.

Excellent philosophy on age, by the way. I'm currently working on reverse ageing myself!
