Day 162 of 2026

My studio has a set of cubbies 

along the back edge of one very deep desk. 

My original bins are two different turquoises and red. 

The red ones have started to disintegrate 

so I am replacing them with white bins

 as I continue to clean up the room. 

I should have enough white bins to replace all the bins 

if more start to disintegrate.

GB#6 has a front row seat as we watch the truck outside.

 

Day 160 of 2026

The yucca has suddenly bloomed.

 

Day 159 of 2026

Fireball and I took GB#3 to Indiana Comic Convention today

 to celebrate his birthday. 

We had a good time and he seemed to be quite knowledgeable 

about most of the characters walking around. 

He was excited to get his photo taken with this one.

 

Day 158 of 2026

 Fireball and I are working on a long procrastinated project today 

and needed some supplies from the local home improvement store. 

It is amazing how many boards will fit in a small car 

when the back seats will flip down revealing the trunk. 

These 8-foot boards spanned the distance from the back of the trunk, 

almost to the radio past the console

 and to the tops of the seat backs.

 

Day 157 of 2026

This chipmunk has been chirping on the deck for a while. 

He has moved to the edge 

and is ready to sprint for the bird feeder.

 

Day 156 of 2026

I filled the feeders today 

so I spent some time watching the increased activity. 

It may not be especially clear to see, 

but the adult woodpecker (stripes showing) 

is feeding a young one (belly showing.)
