| Quilt Pattern Collage #1, block-up, work in progress. |
well it has also been a busy week in my neck of the woods, even if it is covered with snow and cold... burning the wood pellets from morning till bedtime and working to stay warm.
have been getting some aRt work done this winter since i deactivated my FB account...
may restart it again in the spring when i return to Forest Service work and some of the anger, contention, and angst of the new POTUS settles down a bit...
have had lots of new ideas to work through,
much of the work after the block-up running along by the seat of my pants...
and i am for the most part liking what comes out in the final pieces... it's just knowing when to stop.

Sunday January 22
Grey cold windy day... good church meetings...
the press and the POTUS fighting each other...
give the man/office a break... allow him to work without always poking at him in the cage.
he was voted in to do a job, weather we all like it or not, allow him to do that work...
the press knows this one will kick back at the pricks and jabs at him...
contention is the work of the devil to divide us... stop poking at him with your sharp sticks.
Wow i missed the cheap postage stamps... the price when up today to .49 cents per letter...
more snow coming over the next few days...
keep the pellets burning... stay warm and shovel
the driveway...

| Looking north up the Panguitch valley... |
Blowing snow storm all morning...
shovel driveway to get some sun melt...
blue sunny sky afternoon, some melt going on
out for a drive in the good afternoon light...
assemblage ideas for the quilt pattern block collages, bottle caps, beads, small leather bags
making images with G-5 camera...
getting dizzy in-between all this...
taking naps with the dog (2) am & pm...
never got to the post... tomorrow...
lots of snow so far this winter...
looking forward to a wet spring full of wildflowers!

| Looking east across the bench to Sevier Plateau... |

finger prick blood test tomorrow am...
expecting sub-zero temps tonight...
big pill bill at the drug store, deductibles...
snow building up in the mountains...
melting snow = water down in the valley...

Still lots of contention coming from the east...

Wednesday January 25
POTUS is steaming full speed ahead...
smashed pennies, beads and bottle caps...
trash can out to the curb for pick-up...
cold clear sky day 5* at 1000 hrs....
pro-time finger prick... cold fingers...
quilt pattern block ideas flowing...
working with what comes to mind...
found a bottle of found art-a-facts...
have to keep new ideas on work table...
and keep all options open... everything...
is on the table...
an old metal filling fell out my mouth...
shell buttons, glass beads, chicken bones...
punching holes in coins... thousands of beads...
more polyurethane on wooden frame...
another busy day in the vacation office.

| #4 Quilt Pattern Collage, Assemblage. |
Thursday January 26
The trash was picked up early today...
cold grey day, high temp 22* sum sun...
Volunteers starting to look for summer work...
sewed up #4 QPC this morning...
buttons & beads on #6 QPC...
two more QPC to go, #1 & #3, just blocked-up.
Some work better then others, signposts...
Think i will sit on these last two awhile...
pellet stove running, burning wood all day...
good phone call from my Sister today...
Funny small cardboard cards, with photo's glued on and glass beads, buttons, smashed pennies attached to them...
What in the heck is this all about???
keep going one will jump up and out sooner or later... put them in frame and that isolates them from each other and the world around them...
kind of like dressing them up and sending them out into the world or school or some such thing as that... or maybe i am just getting tired of them and need to sit back and look for awhile... ya think?

| back yard snow... so much for melting. |
And today is: Friday January 27...
POTUS is into the new job for seven now and has not quit...
the day here started at -5* clear blue bright and sunny...
Cedar City Temple will be dedicated Sunday December 10, 2017.
no matter what is going on in the world around me my "world" still moves forward with or without me...
