        Monday Greetings to All.
        Hope this finds you well.

        From yesterday:
        The wisteria is blooming around our location.
        It hangs from trees (wild) with a sweet fragrance.

        OMG, that is so beautiful. I wish I could smell those flowers right now. I need something to calm me down. I could NOT sleep last night. That was the worst night I ever had. I purposely did not listen to news on my radio while I twisted and turned. But then one station gave a 5-10 minute update on the pandemic and my brain went into overdrive.

        So, I got to get back to happy thoughts to keep my mind busy without dwelling on what is going on.

        Patty, are those gorgeous flowers in your backyard? This is a delightful vision, so graceful and dainty. However, I hear that they can be a beast too. How can something so beautiful and fragrant be so destructive. Can you cut the flowers and bring the in the house so they can at least share their perfume inside?

        Thanks for starting the daily, Patty. I appreciate the beautiful and relaxing composition.

            Thank You Lorell,
            Let not your heart be troubled!
            This will all pass and things will get back to normal; may seem like forever right now, but creative people can keep their minds and hands busy.
            Got a project that needs to be finished?
            Crochet sounds good right about now!

            I heard the best way to stop the Corovid19 Panic is–
            >>>Turn off the TV.
            I choose to read news online that way I can filter through some of the
            saturation reporting.

            Most people don’t cultivate wisteria that I’ve seen. It’s mostly covering trees along the roads sides and trees around fields.
            I guess it could be cut and brought in, but right now, everything is covered in pollen.
            I mean–greenish yellow coating.
            It’s awful! And Don, if you are reading this..our humidity here right now is at 22% which is unbelievably low!

            I love that Iris photo, beautiful contrast with the background greens. May I paint it?

                That is such a nice compliment when someone asks to use your photo as a reference. This should turn out beautiful.

                Happy Painting, Doug.

                    Thanks Lorell!
                    I hope he shares it with us when he finishes

                    Doug, my apologies for your name mis-spell…auto correct did it!
                    Dough..rolls eyes.

                    Lorell, take a photo of the baby blanket and post it in the “at home” challenge!
