I’ve been clipping and tearing strips of old clothes and thrift store linen …

wanting to see what comes next.
Don has been doing much the same kind of imagining out back …

And still we watch and wait.
I'm Going to Texas (version 2.0)

I’ve been clipping and tearing strips of old clothes and thrift store linen …
wanting to see what comes next.
Don has been doing much the same kind of imagining out back …
And still we watch and wait.
I feel strangely calm. After all the angst leading up to Election Day, here we all are, still going.
Stitching is my meditation …
accompanied by the music in my head.
Today it’s Joni …
I am grateful that our county did us proud …
That our local representative to the Texas House won re-election …
And that there is still hope for the final outcome, even if it won’t be the landslide that was projected.
May it be enough.
I’m smiling as I stitch happy little clouds …
and later I plan to draw with Wendy MacNaughton …
because today I do believe, and dare to hope, anything is possible.
P.S. There will also be cookie dough at some point, although these days I just mix up a little meringue powder instead of buying a whole container of pasteurized eggs.
