The Early Bird

Didn't get the worm...this time.

But the little guy and I got up super early today, at his insistence, and went to the gym before 6am. While I'm an early riser, I tend to poke about rather than get 'er goin'. And he's the kid who will sleep till noon given the chance. But up we got and off we went and we had such a great time in that big old almost empty gym. 

And by 5pm the kid and I were both taking a nap.

Me: "Do you want to do it again?"

Little guy: "I dunno."

Thinking we'll stick to our evening workouts and let the rest of you be the early birds.

Here's my third piece inspired by Joan Miró.

Affected

I just finished this one tonight. I've been working on it for a few days, making change after change after change. It's inspired by a selfie blended with an abstract painting in Photoshop. While I don't think it looks very much like me, I'm super pleased that I've painted something that, once again, utterly and completely looks human. Baby steps and small victories. And, bonus, she reminds me of a cross between Pris in Bladerunner and Leeloo in The Fifth Element.

I'm a happy girl.

Farewell to our Friend

We said farewell to our dear friend, Scout, today.

Thanks for all the love, the walks, the kisses, for keeping us safe from the evil mailman, for always being there through our sadness and joy, for being the best listener ever, for being our friend. What a wonderful thirteen years it has been.

Blissful travels, girl...we love you.
