I'm having either a kind of cool idea or a kind of terrible idea, and I either have the skill and patience to make it work or I don't. We shall see 🙃 #WIP

December 5: Late night storm

(I was approximately zero percent motivated to do a doodle today, which seemed like all the more reason to get off my duff and do *something* even if that something was just making a bit of a mess)

Movie poster for "Toys" with the tagline "Laughter is a state of mind" above the movie title in a stylized font and a photo of Robin Williams as Leslie Zevo, wearing a red suit with a white shirt and black necktie and a red bowler hat with a rectangular cutout in which the image of Williams appears recursively

I love this set
Flatware set consisting of two spoons that are chained together at their bowls, forks with tines that are connected using jump rings, a fork with a handle in sections held together by jump rings, and a spoon bowl and fork tines connected by a jump ring

Now for the difficult bit: waiting for it to cool so the cinnamony, sugary, appley goodness doesn't melt my face off

Happy Thursday to all who celebrate 🙃

If you're alone today, know that you're not alone in that.

I popped on some music that makes me feel good and am making myself a tasty little apple crumble. I hope you have a peaceful day and do something delicious for yourself 💛

You just died.

The 6th picture in your phone gallery is what killed you.

Please use alt text for accessibility. It's incredibly easy to turn on the setting that reminds you and even easier to cut/paste text from images.
Kinder Than Man Althea Davis And God please let the deer on the highway get some kind of heaven. Something with tall soft grass and sweet reunion. Let the moths in porch lights go someplace with a thousand suns, that taste like sugar and get swallowed whole. May the mice in oil and glue have forever dry, warm fur and full bellies. If I am killed for simply living let death be kinder than man.
