Kinda cool to be scrolling a favorite art page and see one of my pieces with so many interesting comments. I forgot I submitted this.

Visiting my grandparent's home was ... immense joy and sadness? Life goes on. We carry them forward.

I asked AI to show me what the yard would look like if I painted the fence and shed charcoal. I though about doing it for years but never pulled the trigger...until.

So I went ahead and did it

It came out pretty accurate.

Go ahead and make mistakes. You're allowed. Just learn from them and do your best not to repeat them.

for what it’s worth, some people don’t even know who they are and it’s so sad 😞

Too true @reinaafricana I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your (God's) works; my soul knows it very well. Ps 139:14. God created our identity but we spend so much time trying to "reinvent" ourselves we forget that there is rest in Him and we can just be.

Redoing the front lawn weekend project. I killed the old lawn, which was mostly weeds at this point, with vinegar, salt & soap solution. My brother came through and handled the rest for me since I was on doctor's orders not to lift anything. 8 hrs later old lawn was gone, top soil was down with a layer of seed and straw. New lawn loading....

Beautiful mess. For the last few years, immediately after bloom, there was either a strong rain storm or windy day. The storm would strip the petals off the tree, or so I thought. This year, with no storms at all, the full bloom lasted only 3 days. It was always 3 days and I never noticed because of the storms.
