totally random wednesday

[dancing_crow]

• I have had a day of disconnected bullet points


• today feels like friday because there is NO SCHOOL UNTIL SEPTEMBER


• the sewing machine I wanted to test was packed in a box for shipping to a quilt show, so my efforts making red things were for naught


• Alice has a new friend who has a favorite fossil and it is the same as hers (Tiktalik) and also remembers most of the Nova episodes with affection


• kids are the best


• my gallery girl is also the best


• she wanted one abstract river, to go with the other two, the bird-headed people are coming home and the truffula trees are going up, once all the framing stuff arrives in the mail


• free ice cream!


• it was a tiny scoop of vanilla, but just the right amount


• Gallery girl is dubious about visiting because her husband wants all my horse artworks, and a handful of others


• she asked me about more cave horses, because in her house with 14' ceilings artwork is grouped, and the Lascaux cave horse has no friends and is isolated in the middle of a bunch of winter watercolors


• my mother desperately wants us to visit


• I just want to let everyone sleep, where everyone is Alice and to a certain extent me, and not drive anywhere? basically? for a week or so


• I ahve to make a huge basket to pur Falstaff into, and because he has bad knees he will tip it over and crawl in, and then escape.


• I will be making it out of cardboard and baling twine


• the appliance store does not have appliance boxes - wtf people??


• I ahve to email margaret about saving me a couple days of baling twine
