Behind and Beginning again. Thank you Dotty! Not behind. Start where you are. OK then! In #54 purple showed up on accident. A nice surprise from the Neocolor crayon. Last night the sunset played the same trick on me, and Mingus had hints of purple. The front range was blazing orange .
Here is a look at my #100Day calendar. Híjole!
Well, getting back to it!

Insanely behind now. I was gone a full week. Crazy busy. And the first days home were recovery and rest. I need more of that. I didn’t even have the energy to unpack, until day three.
To be honest, I am not sure I have the energy to paint. But I want to. I want to paint flowers, and cacti, and odd desert plants. And Mingus.
I have cut the paper to size. Quite a stack sitting ready. Tomorrow I will begin. Again.

This merry Mingus medley brought to you by the letter m, as in middle. And the number 5, as in five weeks and counting.
I have passed the halfway mark. Working in batches to catch up, I missed the pomp and circumstance. And the chance to share a properly timed celebratory composition.
Fathers fifth week in the hospital, but there is light at the end of the tunnel.
That deserves a Wooo Hooo too!
And a HALELULEJAH AMEN!
