Today Is Tuesday, February 25, 2025: This Is What Happened.

At time I feel our devices have there own personality. For some strange reason my laptop start to act normal. Suddenly all of my photos came back. At this time I'm putting them all on thumb drives. Who knows when my laptop will decided to hide them. 

We sure live in an crazy world. Not sure how many heard about the going down in Kootenai County Idaho. Which isn't far from me. Less then an 2 hour drive. I will share two videos on dragging a people out of town hall meeting, who dissent or have different point a view. Bunch of NAZI. VIDEO ONE and VIDEO TWO. Then also this Sheriff was pulling books out different library in Kootenai County here is an VIDEO. And also an ARTICLE.

Went and had my yearly annual. All looks good. Need to do my yearly mammogram. Had swiss steak at the senior center. Should be on more. Not sure when I will be posting photos.

Coffee is on.

Got an appointment with the tech person, at the Library.  But she only gives an one hour of time to each person. So hopefully there enough time to take care of my phone and lap top. The bad part of the appointment it not until Thursday February the 27th. A lease it not in March. 

Tonight for dinner we had stew for dinner tonight.

Saturday, February, 15, 2025: This Is What Happened.

 Having issue with my lap top. I think it the operating system. It act like chrome and window 10 is having an fight. For some reason I have no photo in my file. They went bye-bye. Hopefully when I go into the library later in the month. We can figure out what is going on. I can post. But don't want to do any photos at present time.

Coffee is on.

Still cold! My crud is pretty much over. For some odd reason I will have a minor coughing bout, at night. I feel some what ambitious. ( Sketch for the play - 1933 - Style Art Deco - Genre  design, sketch and study)

I'm wrapping up my dinner with some plain popcorn. (Joy Street - 1932 - Constructive - sketch and study, design)  

Paid bills. I went over to CPT. To see what percentage is paid out to bills. Our electric bill is 5.73% of our income. Now let check out my husband medical bill. It comes to 2.2% , Our water bill is 4.53%. Kind of interesting. We will be going over to the hospital to pay off Murphy bill. That was 5.33%. The other day Murphy got one of his medication. Well the answer is 0.27% I'm curious what we spend on food. (Hurriel Acosta - 1929 - Style Art Deco - Genre design, sketch and study)

Today Is Friday, February 7, 2025: This Is What Happened.

Didn't think it was wise to step on to the porch. Didn't have the correct footwear on. But I did manage to get outside. I took out the household trash and put into large trash cans in the garage/shed. Plus went out to the mailbox, and got the mail. One bill. And the other piece, I don't recall what it was. 

Clear blue sky. Like this it usually mean cold. When I got up it was 12 (11.11) Murphy went to town, and did some errands. Plus get some grocery and non food items. Like shampoo.

Today Is Wednesday, February 5, 2025: This Is What Happened.

 

Let just get right to it. Here is what one of my cousin, Della. Posted over on facebook. I am going to say it again. I am glad Trump was re-elected. All the lies the democrats told. the ways they were stealing american tax payer money has been exposed and is being stopped. Unlawful invaders are being sent home so they can't steal our tax money anymore. I am sure it looks like utter chaos to the communist democratic party that has been trying to install communism for many many years has been exposed and is being stopped. I know it's making people angry but we are getting our country back. We have a strong man in office not a puppet. Keep up the great work President Trump! (Self Portrait – 1955 – Style Magical Realism – Location unknown)

Did some drawing. Last week I was planning to go to the new drawing group this morning. And in the afternoon the water color group. Came down with the crud. I did some drawing this morning at home.

Had trouble opening the battery department to my camera. Sprayed with trusty W.D 40. Now it opens. (Homage to the martyrs – 1997/2000 – Style Magic Realism – Genre Symbolic painting – Media oil – Location Unknown)

Since we both have the crud. Nothing extra been done around the place. But we been keeping up with our daily chores. In the past we got most of our snow in December and January. Now it comes in February. It actually snowing at this moment. I understand it going snow most of us the day. Hopefully on Saturday I can go to my art intuitive group. But if this crud is still hanging on me. I won't go. Don't need to spread it. (We are in good health, reassure us – 1976 – Style Magical Realism – Genre Symbolic painting – Unknown place)

Today art movement I will be sharing is. MAGICAL REALISM. And the works of ISMAIL SHAMMOUT. (To Where...? - 1953 – Style Magic Realism, Social Realism – Genre Symbolism painting – Media Oil on Canvas – Place unknown)

Our television went out. We had it for years, so I drove down to Walmart just south of Sandpoint. I got the same size, but the new television was less. Plus, I got a few other things. Like avocados, 77¢ each (Sketch for minesweepers and seaplane – Date 1917/1919 – Style Art Nouveau, expressionism – Genre marina, sketch and study)

I had planned to load up some of my artist trading cards. My camera battery is dead. Amazon seems to have the best price on batteries. I can't see myself totally not using Amazon, but there are other places to shop. Here is a list of BILLIONARE AT TRUMP'S INAUGURATION. On the other hand, we're not short of batteries at this time. (HMCS On Convoy – 1919 – Style Expressionism, realism - Genre marina – Media lithography)

I don't know what our dear leader will be entirely doing with tariffs. The only I know is that the consumer will see an increase in many things. I recall my parents telling me about the ration of items during World War II. I have been trying to find out what and how much the ration was. I found out each person got 8 ounces of sugar a week. Then coffee was at the rate of 1 pound for 5 weeks. And depending on your job, how much gas you get in a week. Both Murphy and I are coffee drinkers. How much coffee do we go through? I watch for the sale on coffee. Last Thursday, they had a little under 3 pounds of can for $5.98. We got two cans. ( Olympic with return soldier – 1919 – Style Art Nouveau – (Modern) Expressionism – Genre Marina – Media oil on canvas )

I washed out the main bathroom sink and the kitchen sink. I also cleaned out two of my clothing drawers, which hold things like my undergarments. I also found some money. Later, I will do the other drawers and daily chores. For dinner tonight, we're having a tuna fish sandwich and, I think, kidney beans.(Harbour defence, winter – 1918/1919 – Style Realism, Expressionism, ink and wash painting – Media lithograph)

Today art movement is MODERISM. Sharing the works of ARTHUR LISMER. A lease the four art works is located at CANADAIN WAR MUSUEMS

I'm Watching Dark Shadow, the old Gothic Soap opera. I tried a new way of doing a self-portrait. I looked in a cosmetic mirror and did not look at paper as I did my self-portrait. It was quite a different experience. It wouldn't be easy. I'm hooking up with FACE OFF.

I'm not sure where my country is heading. At times, I just want to crawl into a hole and shut the lid. President Trump's behavior toward the jet and helicopter crash on the Potomac River is just plain cruel. Then, blame it on DEI ( Diversity—Equity—Inclusion). Take a listen to what Trump said about AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL. A lease the first 3 minutes.( Blue vase - 1920 – Style Metaphysical art and post impressionism – Genre still life – place unknown)

Today, Murphy and I had lunch at the senior center. Before we ate our lunch, someone led us in mealtime prayer. When we said "Amen," some guy said, "God Bless" Trump. I don't know who it was. I didn't see who it was. "God" wouldn't be pleased with his behavior. Trump's behavior is arresting.

Our lunch was great: potato soup with ham and bacon in it.( On the outskirts of town – 1941 – Style Post impressionism – Genre landscape – Place Unknown)

 February is my birthday month. If the road is good, I will head to Spokane to spend time with my son Bart's family. We haven't had Christmas, so I will miss my art intuitive group. But now we are gathering at Lore Coffee Shop for drawing on the first and third Wednesdays of the month. I'm sure My Art Intuitive form is welcome. Then, next Wednesday, I will be going to the watercolor group. (Fiori – 1950 – Style magic realism – Genre flower painting – Place nnknown location)

Today, the art movement is called METAPHYSICAL, and I'm sharing the works of GIORGIO MORANDI.

Coffee is on.

Today Is Thursday, January 30, 2024: This Is What Happened.

 Not much post. No photos. Around three in morning I keep waking up and my brain is full of thoughts. I keep thinking of great plans. Time to get up I feel like a walking zombie. 

Coffee is on.

What I'm hearing on the news is almost scary. No it is, Scary. I can't believe the American people elected Trump. I'll just leave it there for this post. (Composition XIII woman in studio – 1918 – Style Neo Plasticism – Genre abstract – Media oil on canvas – Location KUNST MUSEUM)

Murphy and I went to the senior center for lunch. A lovely meal, plenty to eat. I really liked the loaded Cauliflower. They had there food give away. With price of food now days. The give away helps. Afterwards we stop at the grocery store. (Design for a tile floor, and entrance hall – 1917 – style Neo Plasticism - Genre design – location unknown)

Before we went to the senior center. Took out the kitchen trash and put it in a bigger can, in the garage. And general chores around the place. Finish up my self portrait. I will be sharing it on FRIDAY FACE. This up coming Friday the 31^st. (Composition IX opus 18 – 1917 – Style Neo Plasticism – Genre abstract – Media Oil on canvas – Location KUNSTMUSEUM.
