What a stressful week it has been!!! And it's only Tuesday.
With the future of Steem literally hanging in the balance (possibly saved by everyone voting in the OUR top 30 witnesses and ousting the SteemTron witnesses), emotions are rife.
We looked at a house today too - much too small and they're asking way too much, considering everything... another one (bargain) just came onto the market, but it's not eligible for our loan. But everything's going to be okay, the right one hasn't come on the market yet.
So, here is a sweet picture that I took a number of years ago when we lived in England. This goose actually has some wing issues (probably inappropriate protein when it was a gosling), but you can almost not tell from this picture.

This just wasn't enough though... I had to play some more, especially as it's a smaller image and the goose is lovely and centered... So, Gimp has this nice little feature to "make seamless" (It's in the "filters" tab under "maps".)
(This effect is always risky business! Thank goodness for CTRL-Z!)
Here's the result.
To see how it looks, I'm going to have to refer you to my RedBubble shop .
Here's hoping that tomorrow will bring good news to the Steem blockchain.
