one midsummer afternoon

In a neighborhood,  a couple blocks away
 from mine, I walked.

I wore a thrifted tie dyed tank.


I stood, and I slightly smiled.


I wore a pink bracelet my mom made.

I wore a guitar pick necklace,
my cousin made.

I got sassy, but that's not anything new.



Here's my midsummer day
and midsummer night art pages.


I go outside my backyard. I hear insects, cars, neighbors' dogs barking, some annoying motor sound from the middle school behind my house buzzing. There are birds chirping, and an airplane overhead.
 
I feel itchy. I'm probably allergic to something
the wind is blowing faintly.

 I hear it gently rustle the leaves in my yard.
They sway. I feel warm cement on my bare feet.
I smell mustiness and dirt. I taste my peppermint gum.
It's not calm and peaceful. I'm getting a headache, so I go inside.

The only garden she could grow was with a pen.


At night is usually when I practice my guitar.
We can hear airplanes, trains, insects, and did I mention dogs barking?
 I keep a heating pad,
and
I read until I'm ready to fall asleep.
We have these high ceilings with these semi-circle windows, and the sky is often not dark, not black. Here it's like a grey lavender through the window.  The other night I saw a huge grasshopper on the window.

all together now

Sometimes it seems like things go together.


Like the colors I'm wearing,

 & the colors of my house.  ;) 


 Sometimes things don't go together. 
Like, what is this wood thing? 

Is this a leash?



 We don't have a dog, but apparently the person who owned our house before us,
must have had one.

I thought my shoes & purse went together.
The Beatles buttons, on my thrifted purse,
were given to me from a dear friend. 


Now compare my blouse print with the colors in my boots, above.

Are you still following my together thread?

Close up pattern of my thrifted blouse.

Check out my my printed blouse above with
these pillows below.

I think these pillow cases my friend sewed me,
match the patterns on my blouse.
This is the back of the pillow cases.

My friend knows me so well.
These pillows can go together with my bed, 

Pillows on my bed
Or my couch.
Pillows on my couch

"One, two, three, four
Can I have a little more?
five, six, seven eight nine ten I love you.

Here's the coin purse she gave me too.

A, B, C, D
Can I bring my friend to tea?
E, F, G, H, I, J, I love you... 

My friend also gave me
this Yellow Submarine key chain.


Sail the ship,
Boom, bam, boom
Chop the tree
Boom, bam, boom
Skip the rope, 
Boom, bam, boom
Look at me

All together now"....
