This is a green monkey painted a few weeks ago.. all 'new creations' will be saved for the new year.  A new slate to create.  Should be an interesting year... I'll leave my predictions with my 2021 painting, next.

Time to grow by reading, thinking and painting.
Already  my painting appears more peaceful & detailed.

Listening to the CBC podcast ‘Ideas’.  Look at that device in your hand #1
 it was fascinating  with perfect timing reassuring my decision to 'turn off'.   

The snow is beautiful, heavy on the pine branches. 
Yesterday, I held a baby woodpecker  for a few moments on my finger.  It was a sign.
​I’m paying less attention to a screen and more to Gods Glory.

New life in an old object.

I have this monkey that holds two tall candles but he wasn't getting much use looking tired -he needed a makeover...  I bet a few of us could use a make-over these days.

I don't use this type of tall  tapered candle, I only use 'tea lights' because they are safest, imo &  I've even had one of those damage a table when some melted wax leaked out and almost started a fire.  One huge 'Halloween Party' one of the candles on the mantle caught  the spiderweb display on fire just as we all walked in the house, whew!  (thank you Lord!) 
I tell you this because:

        ONE of the number one ways fires start is from CHRISTMAS TREES.
        Please be careful - it's a year when we have more on our minds.

I unscrewed the candle parts (happy they removed -saved in case I want to change him back)  and cleaned and then painted my monkey.. thats all he needed and it was really a no brainer- I just coloured what was there. Now he's looking fresh & festive! Then I died a small wooden canvas - perfect size to make a little tray!  Drilled two holes( Norm did),  painted it black and presto- I have a new cell phone holder, that makes me smile, easy to access!  I wrapped my cable around his arm - always ready to charge... then I turned my phone OFF.    I am turning my phone off,  more & more.

There's a big dog running loose & it's -16,  I hope someone gets him, it's pretty cold. A tiny woodpecker on wood - it turned out so pretty,  it's easy to be thankful sitting at my desk, looking at God's Canvas  with bluejays & wood peckers & chickadees  entertaining me.. begging to be painted! 

REuse. Re purpose New life in and old object.. PAINT & love & patience.

Don't be Cheeky Monkey!

Don't be a cheeky monkey,  remember to wear your mask.

When Storm was little I called him Cheeky Monkey- a nickname many little ones get, no doubts.  I needed to ponder yesterday (peacefully) -  primates seem to be my goto' these days when I need to meditate the most.   I had no idea what would appear when pencil was placed on paper - listening to the radio (canoe 100.9FM)  hearing about kids and back to school - being bus drivers- school supplies- YIKES   Teachers BETTER finally get a raise.  
I guess that's why the mask appeared and the Poppies- REMEMBER your mask ;)
Stop & smell the flowers but then remember to put your mask back on.

Numbers are rising, winter is coming - did anyone think it was done? 
Fucking TURMP admitting he downplayed it. WOW. 190,000 dead & counting.
I get it- we must teach out tiny humans life must go on -  at what cost. I don't know.
I feel as tho I am witness to a mass science experiment  &  I'm not that fond of waching. 

I painted that primate starting at 5 a.m. and continued right to 7 p.m. - it was wonderful.
The day before I received my first  trojan horse gift.  A jar of honey with a $900. rock bill.
Yep, I was hurt (again)  but it's my own fault- I set myself up.. thinking I might have tea &  conversation with my new neighbour one day, in a perfect world.
The world is far from perfect, currently.  We must learn to go with it - like it or not.
 & I painted THROUGH it.  FORCE yourself to focus on your art.
Focus on your gift, your intentions and God will continue to walk with you.  
I wish more would belive me.  


I meditate & medicate and ponder & PRAY, clarity arrives.. before my painting is comlete. Thank God.  This chimp looking back at me is  thoughtful, playful, kind and a little cheeky. A gentle reminder for all cheeky monkeys all over the world.  Put your mask back on when your done smelling those flowers.  I wished the first day went well as I  read about schools being shut down due to covid outbreaks.  

AS much as I do focus on my art my twitch is escalated by stress.. (why, I try to avoid it) and yes, it's currently brutal due to  a combination of neighbour crap, covid, chronic pain, exhaustion - even though I am tired my twitch does not stop enough to let me nap,
I don't share this for any other reason than this IS MY LIFE & I certinally will not be ashamed by it.  I LIVE with it EVERY FUCKING DAY..  Every day, keep going, keep painting, keep trying.   I promised God.  Here I sit, God has provided.
For anyone who 'thinks' I take this promise lightly,  you are mistaken.

I hope this monkey proves to you -   Don't let covid, pain or shallow people stop you from creating. CHILD of God you are created to create & dont forget it!
I'm going to go paint another creature now, excited to see what will appear.  
 If I can do it so can you. Have you seen my hands lately?
Norm said my wrists look as though I broke them, they are both swollen & painful.. just another arthritic day and I won't let it slow me down today either.
​Do not stop.  Do not give up...  
Be who God expects you to be. 

I have handed it over to God, all of it & am confident I shall, as alwasy..  be.

Next another classic cartoon  - and a dream bong. ;)

Covid Chimp in a mushroom cap, cap.

Covid Surcharge - or tax... ?  Phhhhhhbt!
If I visit a business & they charge me a 'covid surcharge' or tax I will turn around & leave without my purchase.   Are you kidding me?  
Business owners better think twice.   Did I create this pandemic?
Am I responsible for making others sick or closing your business??      HELL NO.
I have been shopping (carefully with a mask) trying to support my community - take out from several places so everyone gets a bit..  yes WE are ALL in this together but if you think you are going to make me pay for 'it',  guess again.
To chage people extra because YOU are a business owner, lets face it therefore you must be  better off than MOST... if you own your own business..  am I wrong?  
WHY punish your CUSTOMERS who ARE ALSO infact, struggling.  
Nope. Don't do it!
Not only that.. actions will remember, long after covid is complete.

Will covid ever be complete? I WAS so proud of Canada until I saw photos for all the selfish
that decided it was a great day to hang out at a park in record numbers. I didn't see anyone over 50 in the photos.. perhaps the older are wiser.  Probably just more afraid of dying.

Covid-19 $$$ - have you applied? It appears there is money for all. I did not apply, I am grateful to God for all I have and know others need it more than I do.  I asked a friend tho if she's applied, I KNOW she needs the help as she is in a wheel chair. NO- the disabled are not being helped in covid times. NOT only that but she IS in a wheelchair (MUST be) and NOW, wheel trans says she can't bring anyone to help her get groceries!!!   What a fucking joke - she is wearing a mask, has to ride an elevator, can't get around or stay away from others 6 feet, like most of us.  YET, look at all those COVID IDIOTS in the park.  I have NO doubts many applied - got money and DON'T NEED IT.  She WHO NEEDS the help cant get fucking help!?  already living below the poverty line.  Now that YOU have read this  please mention it to someone.. it needs attention - OR we are NOT 'in this all together.' 
 
​Finally, a friend I've know about 2 decades on social media only  & become snail mail pals too, has had a battle with cancer like no other and she is a fucking warrior. Over the years I've watched this woman run marathons, LOVE her hubby -it made me jealous at times, work hard, support others who had cancer before she did, made gifts for many people including me, christmas ornaments.. she is so thought & kind a couple of years ago we decided to meet- I invited them to visit...    Recently, she did not go to the hospital due to cover fears  and now her cancer has reappeared -  I can't even.   :(
She's not doing well... so for all you - all over the world who want to hang out in a park  because your bored and don't give a fuck for others safety - YOU are slapping my friend who IS fighting for her life in the face and I am not happy about it.  FUCK COVID!!!  
And all of you who are behaving selfishly in these times.. do you understand how karma works?  

                                       Stupid is as stupid does. ` Forest Gump

We can't even bury our dead with more than five people. 
Pondering primates in mushroom cap caps are more intelligent that most of us.

14 days celebration!

Yeah!!!!  Tody marks 14 days  of isolation & quarintine - living with Norm...
Many did not realize, I've been living alone for 9 months, it was educational.
I was able to unpack, sort out and get settled before Norm arrived.  

Between moving, selling our home and work, Norm was not able to be here with us until 2 weeks ago.  I must say  he did it, I left and he had WORK to do & YES, I knew he would- he did it!  Yes... WE ARE finally CELEBRATING!  

This year we will be married 28 years and frankly, I don't give a fuck what anyone "thinks" they know about our relationship. Someone comment recently, after watching us argue, Norm & I arguing due to stress is common as it is with most Relationships...  They "could never do it- live like THAT".   Like what? Arguing form time to time?
An opinion, I might add made by someone NEVER having been in a long term relationshiop - phhhhbt.  Some think relationships are not about arguing - in 28 years? Give me a fucking break.  I literally laughed out loud at an article stating: Isolation with a mate will make or break a relationship.  No shit.  

This is nothing. We have come thru some serious difficult times in 28 years and we will come thru this one too! As the team we've obviously become.  Storm keeps us grounded too.
9 month was great- FOR US BOTH. He missed us like crazy ;).  Norm has a new appreciation for us... me in particular.  & I missed him...  I'm well aware of the handyman I have but I found myself CONSTANTLY worried about him.  Now he is here and we are excited about the journey to continue, BOTH so grateful to be in our new home.  We've both acknowledged - we can do this..   and yes WE can.  Together, we will make this home our EDEN.  

The past two weeks have me been SCREAMING: 6 FUCKING FEET NORM!!  
Wash YOUR HANDS!  Blow your nose!! Stay out of the kitchen!  Don't TOUCH ANYTHIN!! He moved up and was promptly BANISHED into his bedroom for 2 weeks - only able to use his bathroom and go outside. 14 days NOW & we both feel fantastic, ready to go out and chop trees! We have agreed we will not be leaving our property for 2 weeks.
I know from 28 years of strugglin with bills - how to stretch food/meals. ;)  Who knew?  
YES, this is a difficult time - learn from it- that person you are 'stuck' with... it's not all lovely dovey - it's HARD work. Surviving a deadly pandemic with someone..
 It's nice not to be alone.  I never 'feel' alone,  I think it's because we keep pretty busy- dogs help too. 
If you can survive this with your partner.. you will  survive more.
Have patience.  Give each other space.  WASH your fucking hands and stay HOME!
