Hello. I am unable to catch up with all post. Too much today outside. The beautiful warm weather this year drags me outside to do a lot of work that must be done. Sorry, but that`s why I cannot be so often online as in winter.

Good luck with all your work, Bee!

Here is another thing I forgot to post last night especially for @Bambam and @YvonneG. It is the picture of the puzzle that i mentioned a while back had gotten the better of me. Plus another one which I haven't even had the chance to open yet.[emoji15] [emoji19] I suspect the wolf one will also get the better of me whenever I get around to doing it.

O that leopard is gorgeous! The yellow and orange of the subject is so contrasting against the blue of the sky.
Ooo I think I have an idea for my next pastel painting!
That is if my husband will ever get around to wiring the lights back in my art room[emoji57]
I'm going to be invading my dining room if it takes much longer!

I did however try and do a pastel oil painting of the wolf. My younger sister who is the artist in the family outlined it in pencil for me and I coloured it in, with the Pastels. I couldn't find the photo of it. So will take a new one when I get home. But in the meantime (sorry if I have posted it before)View attachment 238759

Good one! :)

Thanks everyone. I would have liked your all's post but for some reason it won't let me :(

Anyway. We are on our way back. About 4 hours away from home. The procedures went well. They found inflammation all through my system and ulcerations all the way through. They are starting me on two autoimmune drugs. But one has to be pre-approved by insurance so that one has to wait on them. It's $26,000 a vile! [emoji33][emoji33][emoji43] Luckily I don't have to pay that. insurance will and what they don't get I have another medical card to help with.
The other drug has to be monitored close are requires blood work to be done between doses so I will have to put it off until my vacation is about over to start. Unfortunately that means my legs and stuff will continue getting worse until then.

Thank goodness for your insurance!!

These drug companies are making way to much money!!!

I love working jig saw puzzles. But I hate having a physical puzzle spread out all over the table. So I work them on my Kindle. Because the device is so small I can't work puzzles with lots of pieces, but I enjoy it just the same. I think I have it set for 144 pieces. Another thing I do on the Kindle is the find-the-hidden-object puzzles.

I'm having a hard time getting motivated today. I didn't wash up the dishes yesterday, so I have that chore to look forward to before I can get started on preparing the tortoises' food. Plus, it's overcast, no sun. I don't like gloomy days. But at least it's not cold. S'posed to be in the 70s today, and right now it's in the 60s. That's lovely working outside weather. . . if only I could get motivated!

If it weren’t for occasional posts like this, I’d think you’re a tireless robot. It’s okay to take it easy sometimes.
Um, did that motivate you to work? :confused:

Went on a major forum exploration yesterday. Changed my avatar to the same one I use on Facebook. Started checking out the sections that weren’t just my favorite tortoise species. Found this thread as well.
Hello and welcome!
Hope you like a bit of whimsy.
I'm Brandy but everyone just calls me Bambam.

The best there is! Grab an armadillo to sit on. Just don’t step on a hedgehog in the dark - it hurts a lot, based on personal experience. Do you like coffee? I’ll call out to the One-Legged Pirate to fetch you a beverage of your choice.
