Three full months into this project, and I can only summarize this month’s artwork as completely random observations. No real theme emerged. Some days were less inspiring, so on those days I tried to capture some sort of descriptive phrase. Other days the observation was completely hilarious, and often involved misbehaving animals (the crows in the yard are repeat offenders of this).
- Nothing stood out for this Monday
- Talking about the outer planets, and one of them is not a cookie
- More jazz!
- Reminding myself to excercise
- The Coast Guard flies over every day, to which we point and yell, “There’s our boy!”
- Making art for a labyrinth
- Biking along the river path
- Jingle Cat is one of the neighborhood cats that always likes to say “Hello”
- Daily yoga – Best preventative maintenance
- Free sunflowers? Sure!
- Churros – Honestly one of the tastiest treats
- I put a sprinkler in the bird water bowl and the crows promptly removed it. They did not approve!
- I’m an Old Cowhand – Remember this song? I do, from the movie Innerspace.
- Chippity loves hanging out on the big rock in the backyard.
- A little free library, also known as “the neighborhood store” had cool things this time around…weights and videos!
- Yellow line Metro bridge is open again!
- Saw the off-Broadway musical Beetlejuice, which was awesome!
- Going to the office, where the conference room owls (video telecon system) misbehave
- I kid you not, a 6-squirrel stampede ran past us while we were sitting in the backyard having lunch. I was waiting for a mini chuckwagon to roll through next.
- Took up a new hobby…skating!
- Learning to skate in the parking lot. I stay on the little loop for now.
- Trash day in the neighborhood yields a fountain, and it still works!
- Baking extravaganza before the RV trip
- First RV trip of the season
- Camping, walking around the lakes of a park, and PLNT Burger
- Visiting Parker Dam State Park in PA
- Hiked 9 miles of trails, including extreme route-finding
- A pie in, pie out trip = Get pie on the way in and on the way out
- Blueberry was the winner over egg custard
- One of my pandemic skills I retained was learning to cut my own hair. Curly hair layers can be a challenge and sometimes they come out a bit wonky. When that happens, just wait 3 weeks and try again!
- How I learn the names of birds: Google “small grey Virginia bird punk hairdo.” Result = Tufty Titmouse. And they carry peanuts which are just as big as their little bird bodies.
- Ending the month with a quick trip to Florida for work
