Atlantic Canada by Andrew Hampstead (we're going on an RV trip!)
02. A piece of art.
I have bought my buddy Chelsea's painting, an abstract where a jumble of warm background colors with various shapes outlined in white is overlaid by darker cool swirly spirals in blue green and teal.
03. The view from your window.
Looking out into the front yard where the wind is blowing the green leaves and branches of the fig, podocarpus, and redcurrants, and the dark pink flowers on the crabapple tree are persisting.
04. Something you've kept from childhood.
I don't have much, really. Mostly ephemera, birthday cards and such. I do have a birthday card from my grandma Bert, which is both hilarious and (modernly) cringe: a large white cartoon rabbit 🐇 says, happy birthday! Knock knock, who's there? Lilac. Lilac who? You open the card and the rabbit is presenting the answer like he's on some kind of vaudeville stage: "Lilac anything if someone asks your age!" I was 11, 12? And needed the joke explained. It seemed like a dumb thing to do and I decided I was never going to do that.
05. Your favorite mug.
I have many, mostly stoneware, and I broke one of my favorites yesterday. It fell off the table. Rough stoneware, held half a liter of tea or coffee, beautiful carving and glazing in tones of white, pale blue, and cobalt.
06. Your lockscreen/desktop wallpaper.
Oh that's easy, I have a photo of last year's Temple at burning man during the rains. The photographer caught a rainbow 🌈 arc that touched the top Temple spire beautifully, with dark skies behind.
07. Something fuzzy.
The back of my neck after yesterday's fresh haircut. Wahoo!
08. A piece of physical media.
Brene Brown's Daring Greatly audiobook on CD. I listen to it in the car sometimes.
09. A tool you use in a hobby.
Crochet 🧶 hook! I'm making my first ever sweater!
10. Something that makes you feel good.
The rainbow stained glass rose window my husband hung in the front window for me.
