I got home from Washington on Tuesday night and so far I have not been able to get back to my art. In fact, I feel a little bit like this octopus and I don't even go back to paid work until August 4. Lots of odds and ends we all have to accomplish when we're traveling seem to make time speed by.
By the way, this is an octopus sculpture in the Port Angeles, WA harbor. He has fascinated me for the past few years. I'm trying to take photos every day at home just like I do when I travel.
A LIST OF REDONDOWRITER STUFF IS GRATEFUL FOR
- I came home to a very happy dog, dear Cookie. She was cared for by my family; at least one of them slept over every night.
- The So Cal weather is spectacular, but I've had little time so far to bask in it.
- I completed my Mac Users Group newsletter (SBAMUG) and sent it on to the proofreader. That's always a load off my shoulders. I'm using Mac's Pages for this newsletter and love the application.
- I've completed all my laundry, grocery shopped, returned several phone calls, opened mail, paid bills, run errands, read e-mail, and am finally posting this extremely mundane post to Sacred Ordinary. But, almost everything is sacred ordinary to me these days.
- I drove to the Hilton Hotel at the Anaheim Convention Center this afternoon to visit a friend who is attending the Episcopal Annual Convention. It was good to reconnect--and there was Disneyland right next door. Have a good trip home, Ann.
- The freeway was open at 1:30 p.m. and again at 7 p.m. when I returned home.
- I will have time tomorrow to do some art. Hooray! And I promise to visit your blogs more regularly now that I am home again.
