Lens-Artists: Architecture

March 5, 2019.Reading time 1 minute.

V.J.’s Weekly Challenge #38: What’s In a Name?

March 4, 2019.Reading time 2 minutes.

Impatience

Petulance is actually the word that comes to mind at the moment. I feel as if my inner child, not getting what she wants fast enough, is throwing a temper tantrum. I just need to convince her to give the grass time to grow. Thanks Richard Adams.

Monday Mood: Waterlogged

I was just doing the final walkthrough before an Open House (we’re selling our house) when I noticed the Art Room floor was wet. Looking up at the sagging ceiling tile, I hollered for help . Ric came to the rescue, removing the tile and letting the rush of water free. At our age, we […]
