Saturday morning. Coffee. This Old House on TV. Picking out a couch. Designing cat friendly shelving for our screen porch. Thinking of work on my in-progress painting. Validation of friends' emotions. Hurting for Ukraine. Wondering what the day will bring.

My favorite part of creating a painting is towards the end when I add marks, change colors, & rework. I sat down with this a while ago to relieve the tightness in my chest. It worked. Nothing stays the same. #colorsoakedcity

The New Government says there are only 2 genders, and are defined within strict perimeters. Nature says otherwise.
