Today's prompt is a reactive one. To yesterday's what terrible thing do you fear. Trump won hands down. So today's prompt- what would you want to see if Trump was well and truly gone. For me, that was word pictures rather than pictures.
The Sun today, here in Maine, in blindingly bright. Sunglasses are needed if one ventures outdoors. A very cold Sun. Very white snow and none of it melting. Which is okay. Fine. It's a protective layer. Bare Earth is never a "good thing". And when the snow finally does melt- it goes deep into the aquifer I hope. Snow is full of minerals. Good fertilizer.
I did get the entire house vacuumed and I did Swiffer the house. Recycling the pads I used on the floor. I let them dry and then use them again-- the floor felt dirty but actually wasn't all the dirty.. And usually I just wrap an old cotton towel around the Swiffer pad and clean with that. then wash the towel. Bar cloth. That's what I use for all my housecleaning. Bar Cloths. Just the right size.
I am going up into the Magic Attic in search of Yes! Paste. I know I have a jar of it. Somewhere. And my acrylic inks. I am now interested in coloring some tissue paper and making a collage.
G is sorting his colored pens and pencils and deciding what to color today. Yesterday was word search day. Today coloring. I have cloth on the table. A set of strips to hand sew to the edges of a "collage cloth" I made a few months ago- yes, it must be that long ago. Late October, perhaps. I had wanted to dye cloth brown /black to sew to the four sides. But I have not managed to do that. All cloth dye work stopped while Riley was so ill. After the grapes nothing much happened.
And now I have the Daily Collage and I have books to read. Suddenly the library has many books that I want to read which makes me happy. But I can't read as much as I want. My eyes are dry and tired. So...... we are going to try to see the new Star Wars movie today. G is checking on times. 3:30.
And my clock up top read 11:11 so I stopped to do a bit of mindful thinking. Always a good sign when I look up and see 11:11 on my clock. Positive reinforcement.
The garbage truck just came- we had only recycling.
Word pictures indeed Joanne. This is simply profound for your words allow each of us to form the images that click within ourselves; I read each and every sentence and what came was truth, connection, caring, heart, expansiveness and what it truly means to be a citizen of this planet...thank you for this, for allowing me to feel the words, to see the images, to let them form a free form collage in my head and most of all, in my heart.
