Since this is quiet Wednesday, I'll tiptoe in here to leave #7 Just Faces-Flower Child. As I was painting (Ssssh, whispering) #7, she kept popping out at me as a Flower Child of the late 60's. That's where the flowers and braided hair come in and of course I was listening to Grateful Dead and other music from those days. (okay, I'm skipping out, wishing you all a great rest of the day or next day.)
"She" began to work on me yesterday afternoon and had to keep putting it off because of other things that came up like getting up to change the CD or going in the kitchen to cook something. I don't know why "She" feels she can make me wait so long.
"She" finally gave me the flowers I needed. Flowers are the things to wear these days. "She" only added two to my hair and the rest will have go with me when I leave. Why, they'll be floating in the air in a circular motion around my head. My friends will love this.
"She's just about completed me and I've got to hurry and get dressed. Life is calling to me.
The music is loud, the electric guitar is blasting, I see my friends driving up the driveway in the big yellow flower painted bus.
I am ready!! WOODSTOCK, here I come!
(sneaking off the table, running out the door, waving my goodbyes, Sssssh, don't tell her. Oh by the way, "She's" decided to call me FLORA.)

Hi Darlene, no problema! Hope you have been doing good with all those trips you take I can see why you haven't been around. You must be very tired. At least though, you got to see a lot of beautiful places and such. Thx for stopping by and thank you. The number is for the series I'm doing right now. Flora is number 7. Take care.

Hi girlichef. Really? How fun. Yes, flower power!!. I sure would like to have seen you with flowers in your hair and the long skirts, long hair either braided or just hung loose. How great. Thx for stopping by and thx for your nice comments.
Hello lly. How funny. I was listening to music from that day. It makes me a little moody though and all that bitter sweet stuff. Thx lly, glad you like Flora. Take care and have a great Thursday.
