That's so lovely @ArraDreaming . I can picture the sunset.
Fire? Any excuse for the fire pit is great. I hope to return to Melb when it is cool.
@Gremlin24 , hope you are okay. Glad you can focus on the colouring. Sorry to hear about the recent dramas...

Do you get the chimney professionally cleaned? @ArraDreaming ?

@tyme never a dull moment in my life 😂. The colouring is keeping me somewhat distracted and chatting here is helping aswell. Funny thing is I'm exhausted but not tired, not quite sure how that even works 😂

Fair enough @ArraDreaming - that's the joys of renting.
What else did you get up to today?
@Gremlin24 , glad the colouring helps. I wonder what else you can do to 'extend' colouring. Have you worked with gradients before?

@tyme I have tried but I suck at it 😂. I just try different things to colour with and sometimes mix combinations. But again I tend to stick to what I know as it's part of that whole safety thing and not dealing with change.

Fair enough @Gremlin24 . Change is hectic at the best of times. Stick to what you are comfy doing.
Send us the pics if you feel up to it. Actually, as I'm typing, I'm wondering how you can type and colour at the 'same time'??? Tell me 🙂
So you're not going to delve into diamond art any time soon? Was it you who said you had some stowed away?
Also, with your Lego, when you dismantle them, do you keep them together so you can make them again in the future?

@tyme i prefer my gel pens anyway but I'm trying to get the courage to try pencils again. I'm scared to run out of me gel pens and I only like the ones from Aldi.
I have my pen in my hand and I'm quick at typing so it's only a brief pause 😂.
I got my diamond art out ready to start but I've been painting and colouring and each time I've looked at it it's just been too overwhelming. I'll get around to it eventually 😂.
Omg my Lego sets all got mixed in so it's been a nightmare sorting through well over 300 different sets, especially trying to find all the mini figs that belong to each one and the sticker pieces. But I'm getting there slowly, very slowly 😂
