10 days was not enough

After all these years I still long

How would our lives be

Some things happen and

the world is forever changed

Oh, what is life and floating amid debris in the abyss......

So does that title lead you believe I've gone off the deep end?

Well sometimes I think I have in a way.

Still holding down the day job. And yes, yes, I know many of you are smacking me up side the head because any job is good these days.......I know, I know. But today was one of those days where I wished for another life. For days in my studio. For no controversy. For happiness in those around me. For abundance (of any kind, really).

And yes, yes, I know there is plenty to be thankful for. The job of course, without which I would not be able to afford much if anything, and would not be planning a trip to visit my delightful grand daughter in January.

blah, blah, blah..............I guess I'm just feeling cranky today.

Oh! Wait ! Something is actually cool. My son (who is 32) recently read The Grapes of Wrath. I'd not read it since, well, forever. So last week I got a used copy and started reading. Such a powerful story. If you've not read this since a teacher held a gun to your head, I encourage you to give it a go........my, but things sure look different as an adult. A good read.

When can I possibly know?

How will I ever feel?

Will the waiting ever end?????

And if so, what color will it be????

Just some things to think about for today. I'd really love your comments if you are so inclined.

Lots Of Art At Second Studio !!!!!

THE LAST OF SUMMER

Wild Thing !!!!!

Imagine you at your most powerful. You rock. You are a freaking champion, and everyone knows it. We are filling a stadium to the brim, voices cheering and hearts splashing in anticipation of you making your entrance. We all know what song is going to blast through the speakers as you walk into the ring. It suits this moment perfectly. It makes you feel so good, to step into the light with this song playing...(wanna play? go here)
