Tap Dancing as Fast as I can

Posted By on July 3, 2021

I am on my second cup of coffee so I am assuming the first cup has kicked in or at least my meds have.

I am feeling a little overwhelmed with all I must get done this month.

I need to just make a list and figure out what I am going to get done each day and leave time for life butting in and I figure things out again.

Work is going fine. It does tire me out as we have to work as fast as we can to get our job done. I was warned about this when I took the job. I do like the pace because time flies by. Sometimes too fast. 

Today is cleaning day for the house along with some local errands.

Tomorrow I work but not before the crack of dawn which is around 530 right now.

Caroline and I have two projects we need to get cracking on.

When Peter goes to a convention, especially if I am not with him, he gets me a drawing of Doctor Strange. I have quite a collection from a variety of artists both up and comers and the greats.

He added a piece to my collection that I am going to treasure dearly.

Jim Starlin is an artist of note for a lot of things. One is the creation of Thanos. I have enjoyed his art for years. I met him through Peter, and we became friends. This is one of those things that if you told me as a teenager, I would have thought you were daft.

Peter commissioned Jim to draw Doctor Strange. Jim’s girlfriend Jaime offered to ink it. Jim asked if he could wait until after the convention.

This arrived the other day.  I giggled with happiness upon receiving it and I don’t giggle.

(For the VI: This is a black and white drawing of Classic Dr. Strange.)

It is an amazing rendition of the classic Doctor Strange. I will treasure it always.

The cats had another round of kitty politics which ended with the pecking order being the same. Fig is the alpha still.

Need to get started on the day.

Take care of yourself and give yourself a hug from me.

I am grateful for amazing art.
