Last week I was relaxing in the evening when I received a text from an old co-worker who I hadn’t communicated with since 2023. Continue reading “A Surprise Visit”

A friend of mine took this photo and I thought it would make a great painting:
More Miracles and Synchronicities
Yesterday I went to the chiropractor and I needed him to write a letter excusing me from something. I thought it would take a few minutes but they said it would take around a half hour or a little longer. So I said I could go walk around the mall that’s not too far away and come back.

Miracles and Synchronicities
The other day I was thinking about my friend Michael, and missing seeing him. I used to see him on a regular basis when he worked at a wine tasting room in town but then he got a (very good) regular job, plus he’s got 2 little kids, so, he’s pretty busy.

Synchronicities!
I had a wild day yesterday. I went to the Farmer’s Market, as usual, and I stopped to see my friend Kyle who sells mushroom tinctures https://www.mooncapmedicinals.com/.
Doggie Synchonicities

Another Painting
I am donating a painting to a local music festival raffle. All I had to do was be one of the first 70 people to submit an application.
I have to turn the painting in tomorrow, along with an artist’s bio, but both are done now! Continue reading “Another Painting”

What??!
I had brunch with a friend the other day. We went to a place that has outdoor seating, but no ‘barriers’ around it.
She went inside to check on our order, and I noticed a somewhat raggedy man walking into the area. I watched him because my friend left her wallet on the table.
He walked up and said, “Is now a good time to join you?”
I said no. He noticed the items on the table (and her sweater on the back of the chair) and said, “Oh, yeah, I see you have somebody already joining you.”
And then he strolled away.
Red Hot Chilli Pipers
I went to see The Red Hot Chilli Pipers a few weeks ago. They were awesome and did a great job!
