The Clay is Always Greener when it's wet
Tried list-writing today:
1. make things based on my rambling thoughts
2. query then make
3. fix, mend then re-make
4. keep the clay greener than it is

We are having wireless problems. I had to hard-wire my laptop to use it, making it not portable. It is not the modem or the provider. Just interference. We were told maybe atmospheric--quasars? star dust? ions? No, rain. Rain? That wet stuff coming out of the clouds?

Rain has changed our hills into a lush chartreuse landscape again. Verdant. Vivid. Velvety plush green. Last January, they were brown and we had not a drop of rain. Not one drop. Today it is sprinkling with big splashy drops in-between. Maybe it is the rain interrupting transmissions. Not romantic/scientific as star dust and quasars. Just plain old, wonderfully renewing, Nature.

even a blade of grass it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably
magnificent world in itself."

very cool vases,
ReplyDeleteThanks, Linda ;)
DeleteThe vases are so wonderful - but the plants you've chosen - make them even more wonderful.
ReplyDeleteYour list - how to capture - 'rambling thoughts' lol
Rain - so needed - but really - can cause interference??
Aren't the winter rains normal? And you have been experiencing years of drought?
Wish I could have a conversation with Henry Miller . . .
Air plants are fun houseplants...just spritz of water---the ultimate drought-neglect tolerant plant and dirt-free! About the only dirt-free thing in my house:)
DeleteAs to the rain interference---there's a technical explanation that makes my eyes glaze-over which causes a little eye-rolling :/ As we did set up the router in dryer times, I rotated it a bit and it is better...(Having a programmer, software developer and systems analyst in the family is of no help.) I will not fault the rain. We desperately need it to stay awhile.
