Next week, my husband is off work. I’d call it a vacation, but it will be anything but that. We will be rebuilding our front porch, and enclosing it with walls, and screen. I envision being able to have the front door open, and the cats roaming around on the front porch, like they do the back porch. Right now, the porch is open with large pillars holding up the roof, but no walls. The weather has completely destroyed the floor. The boards are soft, and rotten. I’ve been so afraid someone will fall through, especially UPS/FedEx drivers.
I don’t know how much help I’ll be, but I plan on being out there with him, when needed. If I’m just going to be standing there with my hands in my pockets, watching him, I’d rather be inside working. If you hear two hammers going at it, I’m probably working along side him. Ah, the joys of owning your own home. There’s no landlord to call to fix stuff.
I’m also cooking Thanksgiving dinner on Thursday for 7. It’s going to be a busy next week, but I’ll manage.

I’m writing this blog post a bit earlier in the afternoon today because as soon as I’m done, I’m outta here. I’ve been taking nights off for the past month or so because I’ve been pretty burnt out from overworking. I think I’m going to continue this routine for a while until I’m fully recharged.
Of course, given my situation, it’s hard to recharge fully. Keep in mind, I’m a light sleeper. I live with one snoring husband, 3 playful cats, and one old dog with restless leg syndrome. He scratches the floor ALL night. Sleep is next to impossible. I finally got to sleep around 12:30 last night, and woke up to Harold pouncing on my head this morning. It was 4am. If I told you how often this happens every week, you probably wouldn’t believe me. I’ll just say that I sleep with the pillow on my head for a reason.
How do you stop a cat’s bad behavior? (If you know, please advise what to do about Maude using the floor as a toilet, also. I have tried EVERYTHING!!!) He’s like clockwork every morning. I don’t reward (or punish) him in any way, so I don’t know what he’s getting out of it. Perhaps it’s just habit at this point? Maybe he thinks it’s his job. Uh oh..time to wake Mom. PLOP! haha
I was in the studio by 4:30am, coffee brewed, and ready to go. One painting always leads to another, and another. It also leads to a long day, and a tired me. I’m having a hard time holding my head up, so I’m done for the day. See you tomorrow, when I’ll do it all over again.

The initiator
For each person who cares enough to make something, who is bold enough to ship it, who is generous enough to say, “here, I made this,”…
There are ten people who say, “I could have done it better.”
A hundred people who say, “Who are you to do this?”
A thousand people who say, “I was just about to do that,”
and ten thousand people who don’t care at all.
And all of that is okay, because the person we need, the one we cherish, the one we would miss, is the first person, the initiator, the one who cares.
Thanks for shipping your work.
It feels great to be appreciated. 🙂

Small, yet affordable art.
I think these mini paintings look best in a grouping of 6 or 8.
I have several coming up within the next couple days.
Hope you’re having a wonderful Sunday. It’s been cloudy and windy all day today. My favorite kind of day. 🙂 Looking forward to some thunderstorms for the next couple days. I’m posting a bit earlier today because I’m taking the rest of the day off. I’m going to take a nap, and then watch a new episode of The Affair on Showtime later tonight. It’s my favorite show right now. Can’t miss it.

What the? There was a mosquito flying around me just a second ago. I’m up here in my office, and had to check the calendar to be sure it’s still November.
The tree out my office window has lost all its leaves, and looks very winter-like. If you glance to the right, the huge cottonwood trees on the lawn across the street are still a summery green. Not sure what’s going on.
I’m attempting another DPW experiment tonight..I’m not sure if I can post two photos in a blog post without confusing Daily Paintworks when it pulls my feed. Will it pull the right image? I’ll soon find out. I’d love to be able to post more than one photo in my post, but we’ll see.
Update: I manually pulled the feed, and it worked fine. This makes me really happy. 🙂
