122 give or take

i got my days messed up.. posted twice in one day and called it two.  i think it's right today.  122. 

and a GREAT day.

spent some good hours with this.  and it is different already but it's too late to take a pic.  but as i worked,  i wondered all along about what 
story                                                                                                                                                                                                this is.  and maybe it's that i just say the same story over and over?  and it's kind of just not really a story, but just a moment?

so i have to be fast here.  Thunder man has left the Rim and is moving down quickly.  Lightening beginning to flash.  the horizontal Heat lightning and then the oh so excellent Vertical strikes.  all that threaten electrical dependent things.  and also…want to be ready to go out with the Way Back Goats.  make sure they remember.  

and Goats…well it was a Very Goaty day.  but that should be it's own seperate post.  there's a Lot.

    Did you do something to the face here? Or is it just that the photograph shows it more clearly? Whatever it is, she is absolutely beautiful. I love her pensive gaze. Can’t wait to see what this became after this photo.

    hi grace, i dropped in to make sure you’re ok with all that heat up there. Thinking of you and loving your new work. I read back several days, you seem to be fine and making good stitches and words with your goat faced persons. love, k.

    love that observation–that it’s the same story over and over again–a series of moments. when i read that, in my mind, those “moments” turned into pearls and you are stringing them together, creating a beautiful, exquisite, rare necklace.

    this is a beautiful thought, that string of moments each adding to the wonderment that makes up a lifetime & thinking about that old metaphor of the pyramid of experience giving a strong base to the work, how everything we have done in our lives has brought us to this moment & how we are indeed very experienced these days… when Jimi Hendrix asked “Are You Experienced?” all those years ago I so wanted to be… and wasn’t at all… and now… well… here we are as experienced as we can be without being senile!

    oh….Jimi. i used to live in Detroit Michigan in that
    time, would smoke a big joint, put the headphones on and
    climb out the window of the flat we lived in, sit on the
    roof of the porch below and watch how everything, the
    traffic, birds, mounted police, clouds….moved it
    complete synchronization with him…i was in love with
    him. was his Foxy Lady.

    hi again grace, yes my gates are closed again, i’m not doing the yarngarden right now as i simply dont have the time or will. we are ok here and we have a new little friend – a cat faced girl who is very sweet and warms mum’s heart. she is playing around my feet right now with her toy mouse, throwing it then chasing it. Poppy was a rescue cat, her previous owners didn’t want her anymore.
    It’s winter here and mum needs more care all the time so i can’t seem to involve myself in anything that takes too much of my attention. FBk is easy, one pops in and out quickly.
    I’ll come back again, i like to surprise you. cheerio, k.
