| Colette: china marker on cardboard |
A humble square of packing cardboard, with a tear and text.
I loved it, and started scribbling with a china-marker.
I liked the bizarre hair & face in shadow.
The text is always a plus to my eyes.
I almost stopped, but thought gesso might help.
An uneven wash of gesso, did what I hoped for.
Do you like one better?
The most read blog I have ever done was in 2016, here.
I have always been amazed, puzzled, but
also appreciative, and it was partly about Costco.
Today, after 4 other errands, I headed for my local Costco.
I knew I was in trouble, parking at the farthest corner.
It was morning, so I thought I might beat the masses. Wrong.
Something about back-to-school shopping?
I was single minded. Determined to get in and out.
I only needed water. I buy 4 cases to last 2 months.
The trouble is that I can't lift a case.
I have to wait & snag an employee to help me, and Bob did.

The next obstacle was to check out, sixth in line.
My lowest bill ever. Accomplished because I went
straight to the water & didn't go down any aisles of temptation.
Once at the exit, I again had to ask for help loading.
Jim was kind to load the cases into my car.
Once home, no more helpers,
so after 8pm when it cooled down,
I cut open each case ...
I unload 6 at a time, and re-stacked in my garage
ready for the upcoming months.
Not too exciting, just an every two month happening.
Some days I need to draw on what happened?
Thanks for your patience.
A smile for Wednesday ...
