i felt like i just couldn't spend another whole day at the impeachment proceedings. Why not?, i asked self….no good answer, but…so i decided to do something about the mending of the denim couch/bed cover which was the futon cover in New Mex. Somehow legitimizing watching and listening. So many worn loose and thin areas needing repair of at least a temporary measure before its next round in the washing machine. It's shredding. The first is a large piece, 2 squares of very old and worn denim….not going to make it much longer and i don't have a reserve of denim to put there, so this. I don't know why. I don't feel ok about the red so i colored over one of the strips with black Inktense pencil…will continue with the other two. Don't know if it will work. And then the second pic. Nothing to say about that. I just did it all while listening and watching the proceedings. It all may end up feeling too "busy" and be removed. Maybe someday if i can ever go again to GoodWill and get some denim that will work?
and it rained. Up till now, my rain spirits have held, but today, not so much. Am so grateful for it, for the land, for the land in this coming fire season. It will matter. But it was constant and unrelenting today and there was no break for feeding the Goats, so i just sat there, "suited up"…layers of sweatshirt and then the rain jacket, the boots and when there was a perceptible lessening of Sound on the Roof…i took off. Told them to eat fast, which they did. Everything will be ok.
Alyssia messaged me this: a Utube Heroes to Hives
i thought about the x military who were involved in the Insurrection, having listened to them, how they were feeling like they were a part of something, wanting desperately to be a part of something…what they chose. I watched this Utube about those making such a different choice. the Contrast. How it's ALL OUT THERE, choices.
Emrie had Alyssia stop in front of the B Garden. Picked these, one for each of us.
