I had a time out today. I was going to say from creativity but as human beings there is really not a lot of time when we are not creating something, whether it’s a salad nicoise, some silly jumping about self portrait photos or even dreaming of something we’d like to do, or have, or be. Right?
What I obviously mean is there wasn’t any painting. I went round to see my parents (well it was gloriously sunny and they have a huge garden with a pool, so…..) and I did Tai Chi in the garden,
(I DO wash the mustard yellow cardi! I also do wear it a lot, it’s true) 
washed my car, repainted the house name with silver paint, did Reiki on my mum, attempted the crossword, did some reading by the pool (just a TAD too cold to swim yet), cuddled the dog, hugged some trees and took photos.
So what am I talking about, time out?!
This photo below was actually from the other day on my roof terrace. Which is very amenable to a patchwork blanket, cushions, a magazine, lunch and some seagull watching, on a sunny day.
FAB photos! And can't get enough of a mustard cardi 😉
You do realise we will all be going out tree hugging and taking pictures now! Photos to make you smile Kx
Love the photos Tara, I used to love giving my Mum Reiki – treasure it!!!

THank you for stopping by earlier and leaving such kind comments. I have a green dragonfly too…I am thinking of painting one more. I love this post. Even though your down time was quite full, it was full of love and nurturing self-care. Good for you! 🙂
