Little Red Surprise
I noted a bright red among some foliage, and on closer inspection decided it must be a renegade from the original location. Renegade; surprise; mostly delight.
Making Stuff Fun
We humans have an extraordinary proportion of our brain power allocated to our hands. Maybe that’s why making—using our hands to transform materials—is not only satisfying, but essential to who we are.
A Lazy Labor Day
We’ll use luscious Merino wool to create at least two small containers—they could hold small treasures or big dreams.
Delight
Supposedly, this particular lily can tolerate partial shade. Truth be told, this little pond is mostly in full shade, but I couldn’t resist taking a chance.
Progress
It feels like a new normal. The inside looks a little different, and it seems like there should be more people coming and going to work on stuff. Pretty soon the new normal will feel as if it’s always been this way
Something’s Wrong!
Please, y’all, we as individuals and as a culture can do better than this. We can agree to disagree. And we can do it respectfully, with appreciation for each other’s humanity.
Slower Than Slow
It starts to feel like magic. How in the world did that get so much better? And now, movement can be not only faster, but also more powerful with the same amount of effort.
Too Much, Miss!
You’d think that after so many years on the planet, I’d have figured this out a long time ago. I’m beginning to realize that somehow, we almost always find a way through.
Thumb Up or Thumb Down?
As is too often the case, I forgot to ask why. So, when I was working on my own, I tried this thumb’s up position again, and asked myself why. The movement was smoother, simpler, gentler—and more effective.
Making Mistakes
And with even better luck, the teacher reassures you that you don’t have to start all over again, from the very beginning. It’s especially nice if you can see where you went wrong and learn from that.
