so today was devoted to taking the Old Cowboy to the bank, to change his pin # because he needed a new bankcard because of the Incident last week.  and …oh, jeez….there is no point to telling this.  but just like everything, one thing is dependant on another, so it was that, getting into his bank box going to the Department of Motor Vehicle and getting a photo ID back to the bank etc.  it took all day.  and today, as he had me captive, while waiting for things, he could repeat things a zillion times.  i sit silently unless he pokes me and says "Savy?"  and i say uh huh.  and the one amusing part was the bank woman trying to get him to verbalize why he keeps an $80,000 balance in his checking account.  especially in light of last weeks fiasco.  this took about a half hour.  she was extremely patient.  i was internally going crazy.  but it's done.  

and i got home and checked the Goats.  everyone was ok.  so i worked a little on the Lizard Cloth.

WHY? do i insist on this large ish piece of a linen shirt here?  i don't know.  but i do.

and i'd told myself that i was going to put a more generic lizard in this cloth.  but no…..it has to be one of the Whiptails that are the dominate members of this diorama.  there are a couple other kinds, but it's the Whiptails  that cross the path of my footsteps constantly and me theirs.

New Mexico Whiptails.  more on them as the cloth goes along.

Thunder Man rumbles just in the close distance.  Time to go sit with the babies so they don't forget.  it's an everyday thing now.  needs to be.
