(Shopkeeping note. All the threads from the most recent dyefest have been posted. If you missed out, there will be more soon. I'm on a roll!)
It was my mistake (no mystery) that I opened the page on my phone, looked at one picture, and then closed it before saving.
My cusspots overflow.
How quickly much of what we labor over these days can disappear in a flick of a switch. Bits, bytes, and pixels evaporate in a nanosecond.
These thoughts give me a lot of satisfaction when I hold cloth and thread, working the needle like a paintbrush.
When I'm writing, I use a fountain pen on paper for the same reason. After this, I'll tackle transferring all those notes into electronic ephemera. Someplace where I can stand back, see it all in tabs, and make some order. Remembering to SAVE as I go and not trust the app.

Spawn Prime had a birthday yesterday. The number on that old shirt is coincidentally correct. I'm so proud of the way Colin seems to be accepting adulthood, but I worry that his big heart will cost him some pain. Jade him some. There's always someone ready to take advantage of good intentions. Happy birthday, Sun.
Charlie is having a fine summer. I will get to spend the last week of it with him. Do you know what he gets for his birthday? The first day of fifth grade! We used to say "What a gyp!".

Happy birthday to Colin (spell check wanted colon)
He's looking might fine.....
Happy birthday to Colin! I'm struck by what really good men you have had in your life. August 1 is much too early to go back to school.
Happy Birthdays to you big and little boys!! My son will be 44 in September :)
Charlie looks like an add for summer bliss.
I had to laugh at "What a gyp!" I'd forgotten all about that one!
good folks get hurt.
I think of my sun here...
Charlie has grown!!!
Steph. They are a fine lot. The ancestors as well- quirky, hard-bitten, and soft-hearted.
We don't talk about the shitheads buried out in the weeds.
