The Zzzz is me now, at half past seven.
I was joking when I said to my brother that whenever I made a big decision, signed an important document, or paid an ENORMOUS bill I need to lie down in a darkened room for a couple of hours.
But I have been doing admin, and chatting to my brother about the sale of my father's flat as well as catching up on family news, and getting the grocery order in, and then, this evening, zooming with some cousins - more chatting, more news to share, and I've suddenly run out of steam...
Here's a very rough picture of the amaryllis to be going on with.
It's from one of the notebook swaps, now hurriedly added to and packed up for posting tomorrow.
I used to fall asleep to Cantabile singing from this album or 'Lullabies and Goodbyes' for years.
The amaryllis looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteSometimes all those things just take mental energy and that can zap you as much as physical exertion! Hope you get a good nights sleep
You're right about the mental energy load... I got a good night's rest, if not a good night's sleep. 😴
DeleteAn early night to reset the balance is good. I love your amaryllis drawings, by the way. Mine is coming along, but I'll have to photograph it maybe . . .
ReplyDeleteI have decided that I should have amaryllis bulbs on the go through winter because they are such cheerful flowers.
DeleteBeautiful music💗💗💗💗. Your amaryllis is no doubt lovely and has more buds to open!!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you enjoyed the singing. We have another amaryllis which has just begun to grow; something to look forward to.
DeleteI got an amaryllis for Christmas and had forgotten! I shall plant it today.
ReplyDeleteYou have a treat in store!
DeleteI received an amaryllis for Christmas and it is slowing growing in its pot. Your sketch is lovely!
ReplyDeleteThey are so rewarding to watch.
