We went to a "Potlatch" last night at Luke's school. Long Claw from Vancouver Island put it on, and throughout the night blew feathers all throughout the "lodge". This morning Luke woke up and was coughing as if he had a whole unplucked chicken in his throat so we stayed home and had a nice lazy day. First off, I got sucked into watching The Naked Brothers Band and couldn't take my eyes away from the tv, even to go make myself a coffee. It's really cute and laugh-out-loud funny. And the brothers remind me of my nephew Chad, who is a lot like Luke. Luke is watching TNBB again, for the 5th or 6th time today - he's been doing that and playing his keyboard and nintendo DS all day. I think he thinks he's going to be in a rock band now. Either that or he's trying to remember all the parts I laughed at so he can add them to his repertoire.
The internet was down most of the day, and so I ended up trying to finish some paintings I'd started. They are no closer to being done, but I guess that's ok, right? Nothing in my world is "done" right now, the house, the yard, art, jewelry, books, health/getting in shape... it's a little unsettling. The new garden studio gets built next week - that will be a load off my mind and I'm looking forward to being able to move forward with that again at least.
hi pam,
ReplyDeletei don't check out my friends blogs nearly as often as i wish i could. I'm glad you painted - who cares about finished, unfinished - what does it all matter? That you work on it matters, that you enjoy painting matters. I'm thinking fondly of you and your family - i hear eva tree today and thought of you....
