Shadow says no more chores. Stay on the couch. Give pets.

New favorite utility box cover found on the riverwalk.
Two panels with black backgrounds on a raised utility box. Left panel is outline if a woman jumping with knees fully bent. Her body made up of blues and greens and daisies. Right panel is the shape of someone making a layup. The body composed of garden to trees. Decorated raised utility box with threes in the background behind it. Polevaulter positioning as they clear the bar. Body outlined filled with blue sky. Decorated raised utility box, trees and a blue building with an american flag painted on it in background. Decoration has black background. Outline if person… skateboarding? Dancing? Body shape filled with industrial and technological bits

Making washcloths because I just don’t have it in me to do anything more complicated. But these are nice. #knitting #wip #crafts

Bucolic? Is that the word?

Today is trying it’s hardest to be a drain but at least the sky was pretty.

Specifically the “glaze” line that you uv cure.

I get 7 - 9 out of them. It’s imperative you remove them properly - don’t peel or chip them off.

They have a drying effect, but that is better than breaking/tearing i get without nail cover.

I suspect a “real” gel or silk manicure would also work.

Because we could, and it meant an afternoon creating with friends, i’ve made three fascinators.

#crafting #fascinators #feathers
Three fascinators hung in a diagonal on a light grey wall. Fascinator created from green and purple iridescent feathers, two peacock tail feathers, and a small skull bead. Fascinator. Light grey base. Pink, white, a blue spray invoking the trans flag. White netting spread around the outside. Three small fake white flowers covers the transition from spray tip to three dorset buttons made with pink, yellow, and blue thread. Large fascinator. Three yellow to orange mums across the top, a curved trail if small tight white roses down the left, the remainder of space filled either light green overlapping oak leafs.

Second unplanned trip to see a doctor this week to try to calm my overactive immune system.

Nail stickers keep the weak nails safe. Knitting keeps fingers from getting stuck.

When we say the river is high…

Morning walks across the TN river.
Sunrise gives an orange band of light at the horizon. Blue river, bridge, wooded island in the center. Rocky shore with bare limbed trees in the foreground. Across the river houses look like toys in the distance. Sunrise gives the horizon an orange glow.

It was pretty while it lasted.

#snowDay #southernSnowDay #tnRiver
Snow falls on a dark suburban street, a street light nearly centered in the photo. Dog footprints in the snow that half covers a wooden ramp painted purple with large gold stars. The TN river, a smoke stack in the distance on the far bank. Grey skies. Grey rocks of the near bank spelled with snow and bird droppings.

I think Chattanooga has lovely sewer covers.

#photography #urbanphotography #cityOfChattanooga
Sewer cover with “City of Chattanooga” and “SEWER” encircling a carving if a cannon on a ridge overlooking a river bend. A pipe sticks ip out of the ground behind the sewer cover.

The walks have become load bearing for my sanity. The dog is getting annoyed.

#shadowTheBeauceron #beauceron #tnRiver #chattanoogaWalkingBridge
Wooden bridge planks going up hill to the cornflower blue metal covering structure at the center of the Chattanooga Walking Bridge. Cloudy pastel sunrise in the background pink rising to blue. Aging beauceron (black dog with red markings on underbody) with to pink tongue sticking out in pant sitting on wooden bridge planks.

Hopefully not my last sunrise on the walking bridge before they close it for maintenance.
The red of sunrise under a bank of light grey clouds and over a view of coolidge park. Dark trees, yellow grass, a metal roof, white vans. Sunrise reflected in the TN river rear of photo, split by the Veteran’s bridge. The green of McClellan island’s trees to the right. The river silver in the foreground. Scattered grey clouds with just a strip of color from the sunrise reflected in the TN river. The hunter museum high in the right of the photo.
