That explains it

We've not been on holiday or had a break for over a year and in this time Husband has had two serious illnesses and is currently waiting for a major operation. It's no wonder I'm tired and get stroppy with people.

My latest jigsaw is a Beryl Smith painting, and there are three pieces missing. The risk you take in buying jigsaws second-hand.

Beryl Smith (1926-2008) was known for her comical paintings, featuring large - in every way - men and women living life to the full.

And our rogue poppy is blooming again.

I've always loved Beryl Smith's art. So full of life!

You will need a nice break and rest after hubby recovers, Liz.

I love the word, stroppy. We don’t tend to use it here.

It's quite descriptive, AC.

The waiting does get very tiresome. I hope it will be over soon.
