Jean-Antoine Watteau ( baptised 10 October 1684 – died 18 July 1721 was a French painter and draughtsman whose brief career spurred the revival of interest in colour and movement, as seen in the tradition of Correggio and Rubens. He revitalized the waning Baroque style, shifting it to the less severe, more naturalistic, less formally classical, Rococo. Watteau is credited with inventing the genre of fêtes galantes, scenes of bucolic and idyllic charm, suffused with a theatrical air. Some of his best known subjects were drawn from the world of Italian comedy and ballet.

Good morning everyone and happy Wednesday!

Laura, huge congratulations to you and your DD and DSil - what wonderful news! So sorry about the loss of your DAunt.

I hope your supper was successful, Helia!

Bama, many of us are introverts here, so we understand!

KitKat, I'm glad you had fun with your DGrandkids.

L.Ann, that's a lot of reading!

Trissie, WTG surviving meetings without falliing.asleep! And for progress trimming the chokeberry bush.

Gma, that sounds DS a very complicated process with your Dmother"s House. So glad you're enjoying time.with your family! Also, thank you for the reminder - had anyone seen Peaches recently? I hope she's ok.

Dogged , I'm sure Germane looks even more beautiful after her grooming. I hope her vet visit goes well today.

Yesterday was just "busy" , but with nothing of any great consequence. On the plus side, the new broadband is working well, my hall floor is now mopped, and I did give the sitting room its weekly clean. Today DH is travelling to Leeds by train for work. (I failed to persuade him to do his packing yesterday evening, so I'm hoping he does it forget anything this morning!) I'll drop him off at the station, and then make my plans for the rest of the day.

Outstanding deliveries: eBay , kit for internet.uograde (hopefully both will come.today!)

Extras:
Can I at least just spot clean those muddy marks on the hall floor before the engineer comes? No, but I got all the cats safely corralled, which was more important. Matilda would like to "help", and after Fred's performance yesterday with the water meter reader, I dont trust him. Jude, if course, is a little angel
30 minutes on my response to DEFRA consultation ( they estimate it will take 4 hours. I've already read through the material and had a good think about some of the issues raised, so hopefully it will take less time, but I'm still allowing myself plenty of time.

Think about what I'm going to grow in *that* patch, which is sloping and shaded now the climbing hydrangea is gone. Montbretia at the back are fine, with supports so they don't flop everywhere, and I can keep an eye on them to make sure they dont spread into everything. There is a hardy geranium that's looking sad, but it might do better with less competition and more light? Maybe I could just sow some low growing hardy annuals and see what happens?

Financial:
More work on budget WIP- look at discretionary payments this week 30 minute sessions #1

DH has been safely deposited at the train station, I amd back home, Fred has had his walk and we've both shared some Greek yogurt. Jude is missing DH already - she's very much "his" cat, and she's sitting on the kitchen table requesting head rubs. I think cleaning the kitchen will be delayed for such a good cause!

Good morning Kittykatt! Thanks for the start. I was not familiar with Watteau... Beautiful work, even though it's not my style.. Looks like another busy day for you. Hope it stays dry - we've got the rain today:)

Temperature dropped considerably: it reached 20 C yesterday... but we are lucky: we are getting the big rains while Montreal is supposed to get a LOT of freezing rain...
We already had a little storm around 4-5 a.m. Thankfully, pup does not fuss.

I think I need to accept that until all my dgkids get back to school I have little hope of accomplishing anything here...
Today, I got until 1 p.m to get something done. During that time, I need to walk pup. I think it will be a store walk if it's pouring.

Starting w MR.
