Heard a great quote I THINK from Simon Squibb (?):

“Retirement is for those who hate what they do.”

(I HIGHLY agree!!)

I live in CA - so - too late!
We’ve paid that for years

Help I’m being perceived

You must be from Europe (or someplace else that isn’t all about the glyphosate — like the US ugg)

All of our living presidents who still have a sense of decency gathered to honor Rev. Jesse Jackson.

Respect recognizes respect.

Kristi should take some comfort that she didn’t end up like her poor dog for being crazy and out of control.

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

A glorious bouquet of ranunculus flowers in bold orange and green sits on a black coffee table (with inlaid seashells under glass)

A canvas card features 3D multicolor flowers, 2 felt butterflies, and twist-ties “grass”. In purple it says “Happy Birthday” with a row of pearls underneath. (It’s the piece that I DID sell.)

A wooden table features three handmade bouquets, eight faux, carnations and decorative green jars, and nine 3-D flat cards. On the left are three 5 x 7 canvas cards. (None of it sold, besides the upper L piece)

Happy #FlowersOnFriday besties.
Tell me something good; I did a craft show last night and only sold one thing (but it was my favorite piece.)

Taylor Swift holds a triumphant pose while singing at the eras tour. Taylor is wearing the short gold fringe style of her fearless dress, closing her eyes and punching the air above her with her microphone in hand. She is smiling, a big smile, and there is joy on her face.

A perfect giant dandelion flower.

A side view of the biggest dandelion flower.

The perfect dandelion flower with a quarter on top of it to show its size. An Olympic medal may have actually covered it.

Throwback to the biggest, most perfect dandelion bloom ever. Things are so stupid and evil right now, but the flowers will still grow and that’s pretty nice. 🌱

Self-indulgent art will continue until morale improves.

Bright pink flowers laying on the ground with a blue hyacinth.

The camellia is absolutely covered with blossoms this spring, they even put on a show when they drop.

I’m writing a piece that’s everything I wish existed. It’s small. But we can make the art we want.

Low tide beach at dusk with rippled wet sand in the foreground reflecting blue and gold light. A long wooden pier stretches across the horizon with small lights glowing along its length. Waves break beneath the pier, and a few distant surfers appear as silhouettes near the right side of the frame under a sky that shifts from deep blue to warm yellow.

Sandy oregon coast line with marsha plants lining the sides of image. Coast on horizon under cloudy skies

Going to the coast is always so grounding for me 🌊

Don't forget, this whole Iran thing is to distract from the Epstein list AND his plans to cancel the midterms.

Since the end of the world is on its way,
I’m ordering two thin crust pizzas and flopping one on top of the other to make a sandwich.
Wish me luck.
