I'm gonna go with #WhateverWednesday today. I hope you're safe and warm and dry somehow if you live in the "Pacific Northwet" (sic). It can stop raining anytime! Here's an artistic "cloud" outside a building in southeast Portland, OR. #photography

Good #TuesdayBlue #Bluesday to you. I'm slowly returning to the upright position after taking most of my bones out this weekend at back to back shows. Not my best move but at least I can buy more ink now! #Flowers #Photography #Nigella

Happy #Stunflower #Stunday, to bring a little summer warmth back in the middle of this cold wet December in Portland. Thanks to a customer for the inspiration yesterday, I will try to add a sunflower to my catalog next year! #Flowers 💛

Good #MagentaMonday in the empire beeps. It's cold and raining in Portland but that's not stopping this die-hard hydrangea from still putting out. #pdx

Happy #ThrowbackThursday beeps. (Bee-loving peeps.)

Behold a big bumblebee flying onto my beloved Aurora Lupin last spring, so named by me because her colors match the Aurora Borealis I got to see when she bloomed. #Gardening #BloomScrolling #Flowers #PNW

Good #MagentaMonday morning beeps. I'm struggling to keep up as I prep for back to back craft markets next week. While helping a disabled friend.
I'll do my best. At least my bug is easing up.

I don't have a cat. Will a bee do? I'll still go drink some water. 🙃

Happy #ThrowbackThursday and Thanksgiving. I'm thankful to be warm and housed today. And able to cook a bit later. (I'm slow moving.)

Happy? #Stunflower #Stunday when I now reprise some of summer's best during our grey rainy season. #Flowers #BloomScrolling #Oregon

Happy early #FlowersOnFriday #FridayFlowers. I have a bee-sy day tomorrow so figured I'd get a jump on this lest it go by. I've been pulling off a Hail Mary pass for a houseless friend this week. I may have found a catcher. Meeting soon. 🤞🤞🤞

Sharing this shot of setting sunlight lighting up the grape leaves from last summer for #ThrowbackThursday as I slowly get back on my horse. (Been super sick and beset this week.) 🥺✌️
