Setting Sun


I happened to peek out my window yesterday just as the sun was setting. The golden light on the trees outside was so beautiful I scrambled to find my camera, climb out my bedroom window onto the roof, and took a few snap shots before the moment was lost.

...instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round...

A Life Partner

So there I was, stuck in a quandary. I was invited to a wine and cheese tasting party and did not have a date because my husband was floating in the middle of the ocean somewhere approximately 6,000 miles away from me.

A light bulb flashed somewhere above my head and I knew what to do: make a cardboard representation of him to be my date and escort to this exclusive event. Due to time, financial, and resource limitations, he did not turn out to be actual size.

So it goes...

The next phase of my project is to create comment bubbles of his common phrases. Due to the colorful words in his diction I'll spare you the comment bubbles; in his words "they don't say 'curse like a sailor' because 'sharing is caring' is taken".
