something I am grateful for today

that the current pandemic is one of the most comfortable disasters ever

All our utilities still work. Food is still available -- maybe not every item, but the stores still have something to eat. Hell, we even still have internet, so a world full of info and entertainment. This is nothing like being wiped out by a hurricane or earthquake. Gotta keep this in perspective.

creative burst

Yesterday I completed my thirteenth painting. That is mostly what I have been doing this year, along with doodling something every day since New Year's. I do sorta miss writing, but I am still stuck on the outline of the same novel I was outlining back in December. Last year was my writing year -- this one, not so much. So far this is shaping up to be a visual arts year.

I can post some more of my art here if anyone wants. It ain't great but it's mine.
