Thursday 2.4.16
Sidetracked by drivvel masquerading as news this day. NPR STILL talking Iowa electoral losers & losers. Perhaps a recurring attacked of MPS or ADHD. The weekend is nearly here, it is cold and the overall mood is hunker down and make idle hands busy creating somethings.
As mentioned, ‘bitter’ cold with tongue in cheek. Much too cold for any outdoor activity certainly on the bike & even a walk is out of the question. Times like this a respiratory tract infection is a much greater threat & risk that the anxiety of putting on an extra pound.
WHAT PROJECTS ? AND WHAT'S MPS? YOU DON'T MEAN PMS WITH DYSLEXIA ?
No. MPS is Male Procrastination Syndrone.
I have a third & final faux Mondrain in the hopper. Rolling on those BIG TIME.
This will be the largest so far & I am expecting to continue on a ‘minimal’ theme and throw in some new ‘features’ as in number II here.
It is todays image and a contest follows.
Name the three (3) unconventional features incorporated & win either a date with your reporter or a couple of nights at the Studio B & B.
We MAY have more than one winner.
Tropical fish are hot right now. In addition to doing the research, I am looking at five (5) in various stages of undress. There is a shorebird for final carve before surface texture & details.
There is a very cool cabinet/table (furniture) that has been spray painted deep burgundy/dark cranberry ready for measuring glass tops tomorrow. I am thinking a clear polyurethane spray finish will make it really pop.
There are three (3) decoys to paint all stalled & not moving.
O. Then there are taxes. I started this necessary evil the other night and LOST all the data just before completing the task. Absolutely maddening. At that moment in time, I was prepped & ready to become a terrorist against American Express, yahoo and H-P.
But I calmed down and am ready to regroup & mount a second attempt being a bit more careful this time. I learned a new word here to describe this process. Heuristic learning.
Here are some links I found amusing. ED = commentary.
ED: Watch this one as a ‘developing story’. More ‘special treatment’ for Islamic ‘bretheren’.
ED: WHAT ? This truncated headline is frightening at first but the story digresses & goes benign. Skip it.
You've eaten at Wendys. Start worrying
ED: I don’t even eat at this place (wendy’s). Perhaps YOU do. So a heads up, public or community service.
Must grab breakfast then I am thinking paint brush(es) & paint.
Rest of the weekend ?
IDK. I heard it was Stupid Bowl L. Big deal. No interest.
Maybe more later. Interest, inspiration, motivation & patience have all fallen off.
Off the table, off the charts, off the page.
