  • Mostly being still

    In the midst of this ME crash, I’m mostly being quite still, but yesterday evening George drove me into town for some fish and chips on the seafront. I’m beyond delighted to have discovered that I can eat a few chips without my blood sugar levels spiking!

    Afterwards, I took a few steps from the car to be buffeted by the wind and watch the sun set.

    Lovely.

On the right is a large, expressive profile of a person looking towards the car. The drawing has an overlapping, almost abstract quality. Handwritten text in the bottom right reads, “I eat some of George’s chips and he has the batter from my fish.” The date, 9-10-26, appears underneath. The sketchbook rests on a red and white patterned surface.
    A loose black ink drawing across two pages of an open pocket sketchbook, showing the artist's reflection in the passenger-side wing mirror of a car as he sits looking out towards the sea. His face, wearing glasses and a striped beanie, is framed by the sweeping, curved outline of the mirror, with parts of the car loosely sketched around it. Across the top, handwritten text reads, “Watching the big sea after fish and chips.” Further handwritten notes down the right-hand side describe eating fish and chips in the car at South Beach and wondering whether this might become a new habit. The drawing is dated 9-10-26.
