Kristīne - macro photography
Last week, I captured the stunning beauty of crocus flowers, their soft petals glistering in the Sun. I got closer and photographed the small details of pollen in the heart of this crocus - they look like little orange pearls ✨ ⁠

Not much time for Mastodon today.
I will be helping to move a hospital bed and getting to a protest on time.
A little worried about my husband being outside for any length of time in this cold rainy weather, but he is determined to show up in support of fellow veterans, and the VA medical staff he loves.
Summer gets to hang with her favorite dogsitter instead of standing in the rain with us. I suspect she will be having all the fun today.
Good morning, Mastodon.

After a long night of heavy rain the sun is shining. Summer let me know that she sees this break in the weather as an opportunity. Sadly for her, I'm busy, with a pie in the oven, but she did talk me into sloshing around outside for a few minutes.
I started out early this morning trying to help my friend get back home after a two week hospital stay. I tried to stay uninvolved, but there is no one else, but our family left to help him. The hospital was literally going to put him out on the street.
We put him up in a hotel until Tuesday to give us time to fix a room up, in his house, where he can be safe until he can get into a nursing home. This afternoon I go to pick up a wheel chair. We managed to get his power back on and should have his water back on by the weekend. My daughter and grandkids have been so helpful.
Good morning, Mastodon.

Golden lab ran up the carpeted stairs to get my boots to take her outside. The sun shining through the windows is lighting up half of her face.

I've decided we will take the afternoon off from everything except fun stuff.
Peanut butter and homemade raspberry jam sandwiches for lunch followed by some rousing jigsaw puzzle play is our plan.
We do know how to have fun.
Summer and her pal sat in their favorite spot to watch me assemble gourmet whole wheat PB & J delights.
Lots of cuddles and discussion of our good fortune. We are warm, dry, fed and together on this very rainy day.
I am so happy that we all feel safe in our bubble of peace and well-being. Our home isn't fancy but it is a haven that we cherish.

Summer took me for a tour of the backyard this morning. A reminder that I need to crawl under the deck again to pull weeds. It would be better to take care of it now before things dry out and become a fire hazzard.
Crawling around in a three foot tall damp space isn't my favorite but Summer says it's not so bad.
We perused the varieties of daffodils in bloom which are literally everywhere and headed back in the house to throw the windows open and let the sunshine in.

into the garden - deep summertime
This is the first in a series of paintings that illuminate the transformative beauty of the natural world
To visually express how total immersion into the deep greenness of gardens and wild spaces can create a profound
sense of peace; restore wonder; and generate calm in an increasingly chaotic world.

Now that we have Summer's pal all shaved, showered, and fixed up we can run outside to do some chores.
Summer perked right up when she discovered that she gets to hang outside in the warm sun. Jumping her little fence is a must do so we had to get that out of the way before other less important work could commence.
