Studio Table...

For my mid week blog post I am doing something a little bit different

I am linking up my studio table with Seth Apter over at The Altered Page

partly because I am feeling relatively smug as my table isn't a complete bomb zone

plus it will give me a good excuse to go and stickybeak at other tables

and also because I am not quite game to try to get in and finish anything off

as it has been quite the morning

and yes it is going up a day early but blogging as a tool for avoidance

especially avoidance of a crap day.... is a wonderful thing

this delightful morning opened with hand sanitizer in the eye

I kid you not... somehow in the space of going to sleep last night

and waking this morning the spout thingy dried over just enough

so it could shoot out that gloop at warp speed at a right angle

and squirt directly into my eye

which led to much hopping around and washing of poor eye

resulting in knocking over all sorts of stuff and stubbing my toe

which in turn led to muttering and mumbling while mopping up various smears of makeup

once I recovered from this I came down to find all the bedding from the guest room

piled in a smelly mess on the floor in the laundry

and a note from Sinus Man explaining that the dog had thrown up all over it this morning

ah the joys of having a mutt with a glass stomach

who is also stupid enough to try to eat anything that sits still long enough to be hoovered

then I knocked over my cup of tea

I blame the still slightly blurry right eye for this one...

burnt my toast

not slightly charred either but the sort of cremation

that has you madly turning on all the extractor fan things

while fanning the air and nervously eyeing the fire alarm

I dropped Phants to the train station

and came home to find the driveway blocked by a big arse truck

delivering to the builders a few doors up

tripped over the mutt while trying to unlock the door and answer a text at the same time

almost took myself out

 well maybe not quite but at the very least performed mad gymnastic stunts

while trying to hang out the king size duvet cover on my own

Wild Burrito Ninja looked like making a guest appearance I tell you

and finally knocked over a second cup of tea

so I am calling it a day and seriously considering building myself a blanket fort

and am not coming out again until things turn around... happy painting all...xx

PS don't forget to go and visit the studio tables over at The Altered Page

when they go up tomorrow..
