The Book

Good morning, my dears. I am trying very hard to be a somewhat normal person. Dealing with my mother is a struggle. Yesterday, her neighbor called me because she wanted to pay her phone bill. She has paid the bill so many times that she now has a $105 credit. 

She has no memory of the recent car accident. She doesn't understand why her truck won't start. She won't let me do her laundry. She thinks I empty the trash three times a week instead of once.

I have decided to lean into my art. My fiber group started a sketchbook project. I picked the theme of horses. I put other things in the book, like quilt blocks, geometry, and Celtic knots 

I have decided to work with the sketchbook every day. I am finding it difficult to settle my mind enough to sew. But I can spread paint on a page. 

I may treat my sketchbook as a spell book. I could start doing art spells. If anyone sees me coloring next to a burning candle, they will just think I am trying to create positive vibes. 

Blessed be, my dears. Stay safe and well.
