    Feeling unusually tense and anxious this afternoon, so I turned on the telly and found Irish Paint Magic is on TG4. I haven’t an artistic bone in my body and would go out of my way to avoid art galleries, but this is just the most soothing programme. I cannot explain why seeing a painting emerge from nothing makes me so TH, but TH I am.
    Joy of Painting with Bob Ross is on BBC4 tomorrow at 7. Very relaxing guy as well.

    Remembered over the weekend that I had a spare Windows Mobile phone I’d been meaning to try as a backup, and did, but found it was locked to my old provider. So I filled out their unlock form, expecting they would take forever to get back to me or that they would ignore or refuse the request. But no, they got straight back to me this morning with an unlock code that worked, no problems there at all.

    Check out the paotrait/Lanscape artist of the year competionson Sky Arts. You'd love them. It's amazing how, as you say, the picture emerges from the blank canvas, and also how several people can paint the same sitter or view and still come up with very different paintings.

    One thing I'm happy about is I'm no longer in school not due to cyber stuff(I had some of that) or peer pressure but when I went to school you did your book work and the odd thing and went home. Now it all seems so flappy and over the top and I'm not referring to the current situation.

    TH at playing hide and seek with my niece via video call today. Her "hiding" consisted of her putting the phone face down on the couch so my screen goes black. She didn't even hide, she just stood beside the phone laughing! When it was my turn to hide I tried the same thing as was scolded by her for cheating. The absolute cheek of her! :mad:.............Ok I loved it, made me laugh so much! :D

    Happy that Boards is up as much as it is, thankful for the hamsters that battle to keep it running, but hope they are all home and safe doing it.

    TH (not really T) that my baby slept for a full five and a half hours in a row for the first time in last night. After almost passing out with the fright and checking he was alive/not kidnapped/abducted by aliens/eaten by the dog - there he was discovering his hands, cooing away with a big smile on his tiny face.

    In the middle of a global emergency, today is a good day and I feel like I could climb Everest - twice!
