miscellaneous

the iris featured for yesterday's photo friday are from dad's garden.  the iris, state flower of tennessee, were planted next to the path along the trees on the west side of the lake.  their blooms brighten the way in the spring.  i am certainly looking forward to the iris and all the other flowers from bulbs planted about.

it's warmer right now on this first day of february but more cold, ice and snow are on the way. people seem to flock to the stores in between winter storms in order to procure food and other necessary items before it's time to hunker down at home once again.

the pages of the art journal are filling up.  at least the foundational backgrounds are being put in place.  come the end of may it will be two years since my friend and i took our year long classes in art journaling.  the goal is to finish this book in time for the second anniversary of the beginning of the art journal journey.  besides the initial art journal, i have the challenge art journal, a journal with black gesso to begin a page and three new journals i purchased with reward points just last week. all those journals must mean i plan to do this art for awhile!

still working on the house.  drawers in all sorts of pieces of furniture and cupboards are now the focus.  i feel lighter and lighter as each drawer has been sorted, cleared of unwanted items, cleaned and organized. progress!
