Boathouse

Boathouse

I’m awake, and HGTV is already on the TV. Welcome to another Saturday, my friends.

Yesterday, Mom needed to have some blood drawn for her yearly labs. She asked if I wanted to drive her and I told her to just take the truck and I’d play outside. I handed her the keys and grabbed my poi and earbuds for the first time in about a week.

I’m sore. From poi. That hasn’t happened in a long time.

But it was great. I felt good.

Then, I dragged the paints out. In the six months I’ve been here, I’ve learned to take advantage of the sunshine while it’s there, before the late afternoon rain inevitably comes through. I finished one of the two I was working on.

The second painting isn’t quite finished, and I’m not 100% sure I’ll ever be totally satisfied with it. Such is the nature of shit like art.

The forecast for today is more of the same. I’ll assume a human form. We’ll go out to Walmart for the weekly shopping. Mom wants to do some yard work. I probably won’t do anything more involved than popping my earbuds in again and entering a flow state.

    Happy Saturday Crystal! I love your watercolor paintings, I wish I had a 10th of your talent. Very cool thanks for sharing your work.

      Thanks! This is one of the few I’m happy with. I like sharing stuff, but I’m an attention whore that thrives on that sort of thing.
