I've decided on this art show. I love Southwest Art. I'll take pictures.

Discover the vibrant beauty of the desert in Petals and Prickles: Botanical Art from the Desert Southwest, a captivating exhibition and sale featuring 18 talented artists. Each artist presents exciting new works inspired by the region’s stunning flora — from delicate desert blooms to bold, sculptural cacti.

This diverse collection celebrates the rich colors, intricate textures, and dramatic forms that define the Southwest landscape. Whether you’re drawn to soft petals or striking spines, you’ll find artwork that delights the eye and adds a distinctive touch to any Southwest home décor.

Join us and experience the artistry of the desert in full bloom.

Things I Find Hard To Share

There are things from my childhood that I won't share. Everyone has something. At least I think so. There are things that I never want to speak of. They were very hard times. Time to focus on all the good things in my life. I am happy, healthy, and very lucky.

6. Who are the five people you spend the most time with? How does each of them impact your life and behavior?

First, my hubby, second, would be my brother Dan, third, would be my daughter, Chris, fourth, is easy, my friend Lisa, and fifth, my friend Kelly.

My hubby has my back at all times. He calms me when I'm stressed, makes me smile when I need it the most, and makes me happy.

Dan is always there for me. Everyone loves Dan.

Chris makes me laugh, and I'm happy that we raised such a good person.

My two friends would do anything for me. They're both the best.

Not quite 365 days of questions.

8. It’s International Women’s Day – can you name any famous female artists, musicians, scientists, or authors?

For all the female scientists, I am grateful for everything you have done through the years. When many people don't believe in science, yet you all carry on. To every female recording artist, thank you for making my life better through music. As far as authors go, I love Maya Angelou’s work. I could read it all day and night. I get her books from the library and read them often. And let's not forget Harper Lee. I've been reading To Kill a Mockingbird once a year for years. And I have to mention Agatha Christie. She's one of my favs. To all female artists, I love so many that I don't know where to start. I'll list a couple that I like. Kara Walker is an artist from the American South. Georgia O’Keeffe, Amy Sherald, Cindy Sherman. These e are just a few. We're very lucky to be surrounded by such talent. I'm going to some art shows next weekend.

There are so many women I didn't mention. It's not because I forgot. Just ran out of time.

Quote:

"We are on a journey of becoming that which we already are. That is the impossible paradox of our lives."

"As you transition from the past and future world of the mind to the awakened world of now, you will begin to experience yourself in an entirely new way. A way that is free of the pain and limitations of the past, and free of anxiety about the future. And you will begin to experience the abundance that is ever present in each moment."

Today is cloudy and cooler, but still comfortable. It stormed again last night.

I fed the birds. I've seen a few sparrows.

I put out water for the birds.

EDIT 3/7/26 -- I did a bit of work around the patio.

I've seen a mixed flock of sparrows and house finches. A skein of geese flew overhead, honking quite loudly.

The almost-black miniature irises are blooming. :D The first of the bluebell shoots has appeared.

I am done for the night.

Current Mood: busy

I've been busy over at

romancingmcshep and getting a last-minute story finished and posted for it.

You can check out this year's entries Here

I've also been working on my

5soulmate prompts. I finished the ones for touching your soulmate feels good and touching your soulmate lets them feel what you're feeling.

In both cases, I thought I was working on you can only touch your soulmate and by the time I was finished, realized they fit the other prompts better. Oh well. Progress at least.

The

fandomtrumpshate auction caught my attention this year, too.

And just a few minutes ago,

sga_saturday posted the prompts for this month. History and/or Reading.

I'm waiting to see the story where Rodney is reading Atlantis slash fanfic aloud to John. Oh, I know there are stories out there like that, but whose to say we can't have more?

(and if anyone has the links to those stories, please share.)

I almost forgot to add Shore Leave! A big thanks to

sgatazmy for posting about it on her journal. I've made plans to go with

goddess47 as my partner in crime. I am so EXCITED!

Noting here for posterity that I'm doing another of my "whenever I remember to do it" sweeps of all privs that have been granted, to remove privs from people who aren't currently actively volunteering with the thing that needs that priv. If I accidentally yanked something someone is using (the interface is hella janky and I would not be surprised if I do accidentally at least once), just holler and I'll add it back! Likewise, if you're still doing one thing but have privs for another thing you aren't using, you can let me know by replying here so I can remove those too.

We thank everyone for their time and help, and anyone who's had privs removed, you are welcome back any time you'd like! We operate on a "principle of least access" basis for privs for security reasons, but that doesn't mean we don't appreciate everything folks do, even if you're limited by that mythical land called "real life". ❤️
