Daily Notes- April 24th


Another unfinished piece.  The crow is just sitting on it.  Not attached.  This goes into the try and try again pile.  I am trying to make a "story cloth" but I don't seem to have a "story" that translates into cloth.  I think I am not fitted out (design wise) for small cloth.  Or story cloth of wind, plants, roots and Spirit animals.  No matter how MUCH I want to be. I will have to find another way.  Path.

It's wicked cold in the house this morning.  Same temp as all the days of Winter but suddenly--feeling way colder.  Because the sun hasn't shined in days and days here in Maine. And it's dark inside the house even with lights on.

G asked me about an spot on his head minus skin.  I said -the crab tree when you were pruning. Who will remember for me????  I am now G's rememberer.

Another good night of sleeping for Riley.  G on the couch.  No tranquilizers and the dog ate his three small dog meals yesterday.  We divide his daily kibble into three servings- breakfast, lunch and dinner.  And I now agree with G--The dog is looking very thin.  Bones and ribs are very noticeable.  The hip divot is deep.  Riley was up at 5am and wanting breakfast, which he ate, and then out for a pee and getting the morning paper from the box at the end of the driveway.  Then back to sleep. Riley has always been an avid fan of his three meals.  Me, too.

G and I went out for lunch yesterday.  G had a pub steak and fries and I had the chicken tender salad. Which included lettuce, bacon, fresh baby cucumbers, tomatoes and other veggies with a honey mustard dressing.  It was very good.  I had to chop the chicken fingers into tiny bits in order to chew them.  But things went well.  The restaurant featured the Red Sox game on four screens.

I guess I am going to have to turn on more  house lights and perhaps even put on a second sweater. I have another row of pinks to add to the postage stamp quilt.  The first one looked nice.  I think I'll go do that now.  G has a floral delivery to make--his "side job"--before noon.  He and Riley will go. Riley still enjoys a car ride even though he has never been one to sit up and look out the window.  He tends to sleep in the car.

So, nothing much going on here and I'll just get back to what I was doing and see you all tomorrow.

What if your Cloth was
The Rememberer
?
Keeper of memories
Keeper of someone else's memories

What would a pile of memories look like
