Day 20 #icad2021. Working in series - geisha #6. One more to go in this series.Morning in the greenhouse. I feel the calming and soothing standing in the midst of green. The bitter melon is blooming, mostly male flowers. I spy one female high up. I climbed up to pollinate it with a brush. The flowers give off a fragrant scent like the jasmine. Here’s fingers crossed for an abundance of melons. The tomatoes are getting big but still green. There’s a new crop of little ones showing up. The eggplants are starting to bloom. The peppers growing tall. I have 3 little cukes on the Gateway cucumbers. Hope they will take. The Armenian cucumbers are climbing and climbing. Lots of blooms but all males so far. The scarlet runner beans are up to the roof. Lots of blooms but no beans. That’s ok. They’re putting on a show.Day 19 #icad2021. Working in series - geisha. She is in serious contemplation. I couldn’t make her smile. Life is somber now and then.My after Saturday morning swim look. I took more than the 30 second posted shower. Hair dried au naturelle. No mousse, gel or spray. My first swim in 6 months. Was heavenly.Day 97 of #the100dayprojectDay 18 of #icad2021. Working in series - geisha. I am happy making index card art. I am able let go of perfection, the desire to replicate. It delights me to see each geisha emerge with her own individual charm.I’m in the murder mystery reading mode - my favourite escape. I come up for air only.Day 17 of #icad2021. Working in series - geisha.Day 16 #icad2021. Working in series. Geisha.Day 96 of #the100dayprojectInstagram

SHAKE IT LOOSE, LET IT FALL
The jukebox in my head is playing again. I keep hearing Kris Kristofferson’s Help Me Make It Through the Night all day. Mostly it was just the first two lines. Take the ribbon from your hair. Shake it loose and let … Continue reading
