  11. I don't remember faces on suns when I was little, I think that began later when the "smiley face" stickers began. We used to put faces on the moon, to be "the man in the moon"

  17. Before the quarantine,
    I worked long hours without a break for 33 years.
    I would go home late at night and leave early in the morning,
    managing to do only the essentials.
    However, now I have changed my profession and I am doing something I really enjoy,
    and I have read a lot to get here.
    Now, painting a smiling sun is related to my work.
    So, I am blogging, painting a lot, writing a lot, and reading a lot.

  24. thanks for the comments, I am not even doing email except 3 close friends only, the home bob was in was not caring for him, he was left in pee until it cooked his butt and left for almost 2 hours in a poop diaper, and I rented a hospital bed and brought him home on Tuesday morning, now he is doing much better and I cry and sob while changing his diapers, but this is day 4 and he has mastered the urinal which cuts down on diapers, and I am learning better ways to do things, we have home health, nurses to do nurse things and it and pt etc. a wheel chair is on the way, or so they say, things are bad but not as bad as they were.
    sometimes I think I just can't do any more but I do... I read your last 3 posts now, and love the stained wood and its effects when hit by light. I doubt I will ever be able to do photograph again, but I do love yours and wish I had known you when I had my camra

    1. I don't have email now for months and months so I had no idea if you were still replying that way. That's why I mentioned it. Though I removed my email from blogger so hopefully, it's still not showing up on comments.

      Oh my gosh, so sorry they did that to Bob. That's terrible. I'm glad that you have some help with home health care. This is a big thing you're doing.

      As for taking pictures again, I believe you'll be able to at some point. Just not right now. Soon though, because you're a creative soul and that has to come out of you. You're funny and wonderful and I'm sending you lots of love and huggs your way.
