The week has been busy and very full, but I have managed to take some timeouts for art. Enjoy the photos, and forgive me for this hurried post.

The week has been full; prep for moving my friends and then the Global Transport crew arrived for three days of intense work. They were so nice and respectful!
Thanks everyone for your recent comments and best wishes, which I have read but not answered. Will be back online sometime in the next week, just not sure when!

What a sad time for all. I am sure it is nice to have this phase behind. Sending love to you all.
Did not comment on your beautiful work in progress. Having trouble getting one of those started here. They are so beautiful, as is your work.
Lisa, I am working on family genealogy and need your children’s ,spouses , and grandchildren names and birthday. Updating what my father did years ago. I am glad you are feeling better. A change of scenery will be good for you. Thanks, madge
Your angels trumpets are beautiful. They are such mysterious flowers. I used to have a lovely coral pink one in my Nairobi garden. You never forget the scent.
This bird lady is in complete awe of that toucan!
They do look like a cheerful crew, those movers. It must be such a relief to have people like that available to help out with the physical heavy lifting. I’m sure there are other kinds of heavy lifting going on, spirit-wise.
The toucan is such a bright spot. I was looking at that beak, wondering, “What does he eat?” Well, now I know. But this is what amazed me — that beak is good not only for picking fruit, but for peeling it. I’d love to see that.
I can hear the angel trumpets from here. Keep taking those timeouts — they’re important.
Beautiful work. What a great crew! Glad they could help make the move easier.
Quoting the great Carol King, “I feel the earth move….”
Your post is very good. What is the beed of bird? Blessings to you.
What a lovely toucan!
So torn between the excitement of your beautiful angel trumpet, and the sadness of your friends’ move. Thinking of you.
The crew does look wonderful. And the toucan! Wow, how I’d love to see one of those in the wild. Love your Brugmansia, aren’t they the best subjects?
I love the poetic lines and delicate colours of these Angels Trumpets Lisa. So it sounds as though you will be back home soon. Take care, I hope your friend is improving.
