It's Saturday morning and once again I have awakened before the sun. The project of life is moving forward. I was approved for my Septic and Well permits this week. Thank goodness! I think the contractors are available soon too. This also means I shold have an address on Monday. It's really difficult trying to have a business and/or buy things I need on the internet without an address.
The weather here has been great, nice change from Rhode Island. For the lovely sunset last night I put my camera on it's tripod and took a kazillion pictures as it changed. I also tried some color studies with colored pencils, I wasn't thrilled by them. The colors changed so fast. And silly me tried to look at the sun at times to do it (there was a great swirl happening with the clouds) In the back of my mind each time I snuck a peek would be "Don't look at the sun"....it was worth it.
I got the wiring set up for my solar power yesterday. But I didn't get the panel mounted. I know my ladder setup is sketchy at best so I think I have some help coming today for that, at least I won't be alone for the danger.
In between everything I did some sunprints and shibori dips. They are still out there drying. I've been trying to get a clear direction with all that, but the making regular life happen is difficult right now and I guess Im not giving my art the time it needs....It should be soon since the septic , water, and power needs are getting solved.
The wind is strong this morning. I may not get much done outside. well, that's ok I have plenty to do otherwise. I'm slowly working on a handstitched wall quilt peice. It has curved peicing. Definately a challenge, but I really like hand sewing. I call it FreeBird Cloaked, I started it on my trip here. Yhe bird is cloaked because I kept getting snared by obstacles trying to get to Arizona. I'd like to have it done so that I don't carry the obstacles along for very long.:)
Here comes the sun...do do do dooo.
