Hanging Paintings On The Wall

Sunrise.

One of the most significant things I’ve done, besides playing with birds, Jake, and the cats, during my Christmas vacation, is that I picked up three large paintings from Tristan’s house and took them to the office. Laurie painted them years ago. I hung two 4X6 foot (122 X 183 cm) paintings in the open work area where there is a drop ceiling. I have hardware that allows me to hang the paintings from the ceiling rails. The two walls large enough for the 6X9 foot (183 X 274 cm) painting do not have drop ceilings. Therefore, once we decide where to hang the larger painting, I will have to use brackets to hang it. I put the large painting on the couch and shelf in the foyer, leaning on the wall we could hang it on, until we decide where we will hang it.

The 6X9-foot (183 X 274 cm) painting. The painting would be hung about a foot above the couch and shelf if we hang it on this wall. The ceiling is over 13 feet (4 meters) high in the foyer.

Cheez n Dreams

Sunrise

Ahem! Poor pathetic, putrid, pee-brained paparazzo! Can’t you see the cheez is covered? Are you blind along with being a bonehead?

Loki: “Dibs! Hahahahaha! I got the cheez first.

“Eat your cheezy little heart out, Silver!”

Jake dreaming that the wind is blowing in his face.

A Simple Prayer

Dawn

Sunrise

I pray this bottle
capped up so tight
will loosen up
So I can jug tonight
If you can hear me
Though cats are held low
can you slap some sense
into that Paparazzo?

“Well? Did you feel anything?”

Water, but not enough to irrigate

“Stupid water!”

Cloudy night
