2025: Day 47....."What can I do?"

Zekelman Holocaust Museum in Michigan.

Wall of messages.

For then and now.

2025: Day 46....."Fire that won't melt snow"

Fake fire that gives me a warm feeling.

It doesn't throw off a bit of heat.

Not even a tiny bit.

But I look at it and feel warmth.

That's why it's out there all winter and

not melting one bit of snow. 

I see the glow from my bedroom doorwall

 (that's what us folks in Michigan call it)

 and I LOVE it.

It turns on when the sun goes down.

It lasts a few hours.

Enough to give me a bonus 

warm feeling every day.

Small joys in a Michigan winter.

 

2025: Day 45....."Art By Others"

This paper mache sculpture is by

Lori Hlavs in Florida who came

to Michigan to an art show in the 90's.

I'm very selective on the 

"Art By Others" that I purchase 

but this I could not resist.

The live edge wood corner shelf she is

currently seated on is from another

artist who works in natural wood...another

weakness I have. I love pieces of wood.

I think I related to this figure & wood because I

am that funky creature who would like to dress

like that and also own every woodsy thing I could find.

I do own a jacket like this..with a pointy hat... so 

that tells you something.

If I allowed her to live outside (but I never would!)

this is the type house we both would like.
