A slow week.

Daytime TV is always not the best but lately when ever I'm at the doctors that's all they play and it's always The Ellen Show but it was worse today I  was up there for a ear problem which turned out to be a middle ear infection, so not hearing the best and the TV was turned down very low, is it bad manners to change the channel but with no remote I don't know how now. It all started with lots of ladies jumping up and down in the audience not sure why, then Ellen did a little dance down the central aisle with lot's of hand waving has she been giving D Trump lessons in hand waving he does it a lot too.
It wasn't to bad I only had to wait about 1/2 hour today, that's pretty good, I think they should play soothing music. My she gives away a lot of stuff I guess that is why they are all so excited.
Anyway my dentist is just across the road so I went to make a appointment but no one was there always such a relief he does have a lot of holidays but I must see him soon as I broke a tooth the other day.
All other health issues OK I've had my yearly blood test and all ok.
The grandchildren are arriving next Wednesday all being well.
  This is what I've been working on,  not right yet maybe never will be it's my parents, the beer fairy reckons my dad looks like Donald Trump he said my dad wouldn't like that, he is right about that.
Talk to you later Merle...........

  1. Next week? You must be so excited.
    Donald Trump would be flattered to look that good.
    I hope your ear infection is soon a thing of the past. Nasty things.

    1. They are a bit nasty caused by all the blocked nose and sinus problems as it's in both ears, but only one is sore.

  2. I bet you can't sleep the few days before the babies arrive, you'll be too excited.
    I hate ear infections, I rarely have them now, but had plenty as a toddler, that's what I was told anyway.
    I hope you get the tooth fixed soon.

  3. Doctor's waiting rooms should never have tv. If you are sick, nothing is worse than having to hear daytime tv. But if the sound is turned down and you can't hear it, what is the point of tv? Soothing music is good.

    1. Not bad as the hospital for day surgery, we were told that you had to have someone with you and I went with Boo peep when it 3pm they shut the waiting room turned off the tv and told the remaining people to wait outside now that was very rude.

  4. I like your painting of your Mum and Dad you've done a great job. Going to the doctors isn't fun I try to avoid going unless I have to. Next week for the babes arrival, must be exciting for you and your family !!

    OH my word, so close to your own birthday - what a great present! Wishing all well for these final stages.

    Sorry the ear was a bother and doesn't linger. I am convinced that telly is not for the patients but for the receptionists! Very bad idea for waiting rooms I reckon. Try as we will, it is almost impossible to avoid looking at them!!!

    I admire anyone who can create a portrait - all these years I can still only manage stick figures - and even those are dodgy! YAM xx

  6. An ear infection and a broken tooth simultaneously are beyond the pale. Every doctor's office I visit has a TV, and they all play bits about being healthy.

    1. They have posters about being healthy but bad for business if we get to healthy.

  10. Hi Merle - you always make me laugh when I come to visit.....Yes, the Ellen show is very energetic and LOUD - it is a good thing the volume was turned down. I can't watch it for that reason. My dentist always has the t.v. going, too, but the same thing.....no remote or volume. I agree with you about having soothing music instead. Glad your tests turned out good - I need to go.....Good job on your portraits - I don't see the resemblance to 'The Donald' and maybe that's a good thing. Our elections this year are so embarrassing.....It's like a bad dream. I just want to wake up and have that idiot go away. Far away.......and I'm not embarrassed to say it, either! Take care x Karen

    1. I only see it in doctors or hospitals, I don't watch TV in the daytime unless I'm sick, I often fall asleep in front of it mainly when cricket is on very relaxing is cricket.

  11. I love that you are painting your parent's likenesses. Too bad about the doctor's office. I never watch Ellen- I don't know why. I just don't.
    Hope your ear infection clears us- dealing with sinus stuff here so know what you are feeling like. xo Diana

    1. I Barb yes you have been missing for a while.
      Ears are getting better, I woke up with them crackling and bubbling the other day that is a weird feeling.
      I've given up on the painting for the time being at the moment it's to cold to sit around need to move.

  16. I never watch the Ellen show. I don't watch any t.v. during the day but I do occasionally see clips from her show on facebook. I kind of enjoy her spirit and energy. I think she is a kind soul. Your art is beautiful, I hope you are feeling better!!
