AS GOOD AS IT GETS PHASE DAY 63

DVT DAY 78

DAY 63

I wake up early to sunshine and head for the swing seat in the garden. I read Anger Management for Beginners and sip coffee to take my drugs.

DRUGS AND COFFEE IN THE MORNING SUN

After an hour or so I am joined by my partner and we chat for a while before we go in to the house and get breakfast ready. I continue to read on the patio, I am quite addicted to this book as it echoes so many of my own irritations. At the other end of the table my partner starts a jigsaw. Its midmorning and Amazon man delivers some goodies. My paint brushes and pallet knives have arrived alongside a contactless thermometer.

ALL I NEED NOW IS INSPIRATION AND TALENT

I continue to read until lunchtime when I finish off the one pot from the previous evening, and then water some of the plants and the seed trays. I read some more and then join in the putting the jigsaw together. A tricky puzzle but well worth the effort as the details are lovely.

A JIGSAW FULL OF ‘WHIMSIES’

I continue to read and then set about mending the nonworking set of solar flowers that had stopped working. I rewire part of the array and will wait for nightfall to see if my work bears fruit.

Dinner tonight is light and I begin to write the blog before Grayson Perry presents his arts club after which it is Killing Eve for me and more reading if I am lucky, although I need to prepare for my work one to one tomorrow.
