Dear Jacki,
It was so much fun to see peoples creativity and whimsy in the recreations you posted, and the tube of paint was also fun to see. Thank you for starting Monday off with a few fun images and jokes. It always makes my day go better.

Hi Jacki I don't always comment but read your lovely posts daily. This one was so good, with the artworks being replicated with people and props from home, so cool! I also love the birds and funnies, thanks so much!

Jacki, I so love Marigolds, I'm growing some for myself from seeds I harvested last year.
I don't know why I missed yesterday's blog but read it today - so nice to hear you spent time with your daughter. That's always the best time, isn't it? Thanks for two lovely blogs!

Thank you Elenor, I always enjoy hearing from you. We had a 5.1 earthquake earlier today. I was working on this laptop, and as the jaded Californian, I stayed to see how big it would be, it only lasted 20-30 seconds. Thank goodness. The quake was centered near San Diego so we were a ways away.
