#DearDiary, between Scotland winning and Emma Raducanu losing, it's been a day of tossing failed sketches into the bin. Early 60s melodramatic pop ballads helped lighten the mood at day's end. Sunday's can be tricky to navigate.
What was on my #music box today? Drawing, listening to ELO “New World Record”. I don’t much like the band, but this one’s really good. It’s before all their stuff sounded like the disco Bee Gees on acid. (Sorry).
What's in my #garden today? Well, Paul McCartney lost his head, and George Harrison his hair. They were about 40 years old. Relics from my teaching days. But I guess even the Beatles succumb to old age at some point.
#Drawing#Sketchbook#Sketch. As I draw them I think of all the places these shoes have taken me. Pubs, graveyards, doctors, dentists, fairgrounds, seaside, and many more. Not retiring them yet.
#DearDiary. So I’m out on my front lawn trimming my bush. (No double entendres.) A nurse pulls up and asks me if I have water and a cloth. Could be interesting? No. she just wanted to clean her car window. We did it quickly before a queue formed.
