Summer is being summer

This summer has an observation vibe early on. A feeling of what is going to happen next plays in the background of my mind along with the frequent chant, No Scotland, No party!

There are things I hope to do. For this year’s warm weather months in this northern hemisphere, not making plans is the theme I’m going to go by. Once the cast is replaced with a splint, my confidence doing more will kick in. 

For now, I’m in awe that after 4 days not wearing earrings, I put in a pair of French wires using one hand. Yesterday I scored my 5th Wordle on 2 out of 120 games. I’m so scared about tripping and falling, I went barefoot. Having to use my right arm more, I ache more from sore muscles than the broken wrist. 

Meanwhile, I’d like to paint today, sit outdoors under an umbrella with a no sugar ice tea, and glue something fun. 

Tissue decoupage on an Altoids tin takes
several layers to obscure the raised lettering.

Adding fabric over the tissue, the raised lettering
still shows through. It adds a homemade vibe.
