Playing with Markers
My husband intrigues me. That’s a good thing. I don’t know about you, but I like a few surprises. The good kind, that is. No shocking surprises, thank you. When Don’s at work and has to kill some time, he plays with colored markers. And he comes up with pictures like the one above.
Or this one:
And this is his most recent drawing:
Don took these photos of his drawings with his phone.
I like his style. A lot. When I was out and about running errands yesterday, he had one request: some more markers. I can see some of the new colors in this drawing.
Since he’d already posted these on Facebook, I figured he wouldn’t mind if I posted them on the blog. Nevertheless, I asked him anyway. I can’t wait to see what he comes up with next!
As for today:
It’s reseeding day. I give up on the rocks. I will never get rid of them all.
Tomorrow is mulching day.
Then mowing day.
Yikes.
The fact is, I may have to leave a day early for Hartford and I have much to do in the meantime. The good news? I will get to come home for a few days while the director has everyone on their feet and is staging the play. Since I’m being put up in a Homewood Suites, the theater doesn’t want to have to pay for my room when there’s nothing for me to do. That means I can go home, see my doggies and husband and continue my planting in the garden. Then, of course, I will go back for the duration of the rehearsal period.
Don’t forget about your photos in our scarves/shawls! I’m not letting up, my friends.
Have a great Tuesday.
Postcards from New York
Another quick trip into the city today for a coaching gig, which required a wake-up time of 5 AM. I don’t do 5 AM very well. I thought I’d share some photos courtesy of the iPhone.
Coffee and the New York Times Crossword Puzzle. Always tricky on a jiggly bus ride.
At this point, we’re in New Jersey on our way into the city and that’s the Manhattan skyline off in the distance.
The trees are blooming – what an early Spring we’re having!
More beauty.
The woman I’m working with has an office right by Madison Square Garden.
And it’s also close to Macy’s.
After our appointment, I headed back toward the Port Authority Bus Terminal, which is in the Theater District/Times Square. I cut through the garment district. That’s Daytona Braids and Trimming where I get my Embroidery Floss. (I confess: I cut through the Garment District in order to buy a cupcake from Crumbs Bakery.)
My favorite newspaper and, even more importantly, my favorite crossword puzzle source. You can see the Port Authority Terminal reflected in the glass.
And there’s the Port Authority, where I catch the bus back home.
I love New York and I’d like nothing better than to spend the day there, but alas, I had to get back home. I’ll try to grab more photos during my next 2 visits.
It was a gorgeous day, by the way, with the temperature in the 70’s. However, colder weather and rain are coming.
One day I’m picking up rocks, digging for more rocks, dumping rocks, leveling dirt – the next day I’m in Manhattan. Tomorrow? Back to hard labor.
