t appears that it is Wednesday, meaning it is time for me to post something. Unfortunately I have been very, very, very, very busy. This is what I have to show for my busy-ness…. I have been working on this for the past month….
I know, stunning… one of my best pieces… WHERE DOES THE TIME GO?????
I asked one of my lovely Flourish Forum friends, and she sent me this:-
Erm… yes, this does all feel rather familiar…. So from this day onwards I am going to start writing lists and ticking things off, I feel that this is the only cure… so… I am away… to write a list… at the top of the list it will say: Write a post for next Wednesday…
Yikes! That’s exactly why I don’t get anything done either! SIgh…
If it’s not too late, you could always pretend you’ve done loads of calligraphy using invisible ink?
P.S. Yay! First!

Maybe I did use invisible ink, Mr Devine? And then I forgot???!

I think juice of citrons is the main ingredience for invisible ink.

You can use it in your printer too. There are some historical mixtures from early modern times. I once wanted to make my own ink, so had a look into these things, but it’s so long ago, it’s even not real anymore.

Thank you, Mr Mags, it seems WordPress is being over zealous and I have retrieved your comments from the spam box… now then, let me have a look at this invisible ink printer. Hopefully they’ll be no more invisible comments!

Darling, don’t look at me. I have no idea where this year has gone, much less the last month.

Thank you, Ms Rose! I’ve already forgotten to start writing a list… and am, for some reason, reading Wikipedia and nodding sagely. I have no idea how I ended up on Wikipedia. And so the bafflement of time slipping away continues….

Right, I must just make a comment on Ms Scarlet’s fascinating post. Oh, hang on, I think it’s about to rain and I must get the washing off the line urgently. Oh and I think that’s the phone ringing, it might be an emergency. I won’t be two ticks….

I think you might have a better time doing a “Not to do” list, which is not too hard to generate and doesn’t involve any activity except a slight amount of penmanship mixed with whimsy. Job done, kettle on, lets open the digestive biscuits 🙂

But your piece has lovely, clean lines. It’s blank beauty is pure and uncluttered. I wouldn’t be so quick to dismiss it. There’s an entire gallery full of blank canvasses in the Museum of Modern Art. They’re looked upon with great admiration. Rauschenberg built a career on them.

I’m sorry, dearest Scarlet, the comment in which I link to the manufacturer and seller of invisible ink for ink-printers is not there (I tried twice) – is it possible that only four answers to a comment are allowed ? Or that replying to a reply’s reply is not possible ?

I’m particularly enjoying the invisible comments. They’re so laid-back and unassuming. They don’t shout at you for attention. Which is helpful when one has a monstrous hangover.
