Fiona's Quiet Life

Today found me in Edin­burgh sit­ting on the steps of the Scot­tish National Gal­lery wait­ing for my God-daughter Laura we were going to the Andy War­hol exhib­i­tion. I arrived in Edin­burgh early and went to the fam­ous Jenner’s store, i defy any­one not to get lost in that shop, it is labyrinth­ine, but has a nice res­taur­ant with tasty food.

The exhib­i­tion was good , i looked at them and thought, ’ I could do that’ but it is not the work ‚it is in the innov­at­ive ideas that the artistic tal­ent lies.

came home via Lin­lithgow just in case a couple of friends i hadn’t seen for a while were home but they were out , so i came home,

Abi­gail had sent me a ball that lights up and changes col­our, him upstairs and i played catch with it in the dark garden and drove his dogs to a frenzy try­ing to catch it, they did every so often and the sight of a dog speed­ing around the garden try­ing to evade cap­ture with a mouth full of chan­ging col­our light was hilarious.

i was throw­ing out an old cof­fee table with a top made of smoked glass and hexagonal shape.….him upstairs is mak­ing an internal win­dow out of it in his hall way.….sounds odd but it will make a dark hall inter­est­ing and light.

my skip is full and my garden and gar­age tidy.

yes­ter­day Mar­isa and i ordered 3 large book­shelves one cof­fee table and a large rug from Ikea to be delivered tomor­row so it is out with the Allen key and back to con­struct­ing things again. yippee !!
