Back to Normal
This morning when I got up, things felt like I would be getting back to normal routines. What’s not to like with a slice of bread schmeared with peanut butter and jelly for breakfast.
The lights went on in the studio and KNUJ was tuned in. The seams I had laid out were soon under the needle. The project for Megan entails two printed panels characterizing patriotic images. I am going to put them back to back. One is much larger than the other. Out came the tape measure. Getting coordinating fabric out for borders to be sewn on making them the identical size. Everything I need to work with this project is within the confines of my studio, aka: a Michael’s Annex.
By one, I was ready to close down shop. Yesterday I knew that I needed to make a trip to the grocery store here in town. Nothing in quantity, just a bit of this and a bit of that. Dennis has been hinting that he is ready to make a tuna oven dish. How could I not supply him with what he needs. We do use the Albacore tuna. It is chunks of nice white tuna packed in water. Some day I am going to find a recipe to use the Star-Kist Tuna. Yup, we are spoiled.
I have the groceries put away and have a bit of time to wrap these way-ward thoughts up for the day. I did find my favorite apples in the store. I now have 10 lbs. of the Macintosh apples in the refrigerator. When the store’s deli has wrapped up their noon specials, the remainder is put in carry-out containers in the coolers where they keep the Mrs. Gerry items. Dennis and I are going to have tater-tot hotdish for supper, along with our favorite bread and butter pickles and coleslaw. Dennis can tackle his dish tomorrow.
Looking out the south windows of my bedroom porch, the air is full of the pesky “no-see’ms.” Right along with them the box-elder bugs and Asian beetles are vying for air space.
I have had a great day and it feels good to have had the enthusiasm, courage and drive to complete some windows and get the deck ready for more years to come. I can now spend time in the studio doing what comes naturally.
With that I will take my leave. ♥
