    Hi-ho and hello.

    I found a book today of expressionist. It goes into detail about the start, what impressionism is, and the many varieties and artists that can be categorized as impressionists. And yes, lots of images of paintings, hundreds as a matter of fact.

    It’s an old coffee table book from back when I was a teen that I had taken from my parents home prior to them leaving for Alaska. It was tucked away neatly in the dusty shed of mine, why I put it there, I can only think it was due to size and not having a bookcase with cubbies tall enough to cradle it.

    The Impressionists by Gabriele Crepaldi

    Anyhow, about that job I mentioned yesterday and why I’m bringing the Impressionism book up. To start off, the job was a scam. I had been doing applications left and right and upon the first inquiry was elated about the prospective job offer, but I hesitated. Only for a moment and went on to do an interview and then…was told to copy and paste an invoice for a list of products I’d order and that would be used for the job. However I needed to send the invoice then get a check from the accounting office cash that into my bank account and then proceed in acquiring the products on said invoice list. I thought it be an odd start, but the staring hourly amount was enough I kept going. But I mentioned this situation to my wife who immediately smashed the bubble of happiness about the prospective job calling it a scam.

    In retrospect, I feel that I knew it, there was just something motivating about the prospect of my own monetary gain on my own account, but the details became not only red, but flaming torch red and scalding not only my pride, but certainly that Id we all have.

    So I marked the emails as spam, reported the company, and hoping one of the many applications attempted in will bring virtue. Fingers crossed right? But then that Impressionism book, why bring it up? Right? Yes. Why?

    Well I’ve been running steady with this blog finally, since January 1st, I have posted a few short stories, some poetry, and a wide range of art. While also doing a small amount of Instagram drops…but then an idea came and I’d very much like a response on this.

    Would you like art with explanation and a showing of how?

    Given I have  Smoldering MS, I thought It’d be a fun way of showing how my brain is affected and how seeing the visual depiction of a painting may not result in anything like what was originally shared from an impressionist of the past. Id also share how I work, my products and start sharing videos of the art studio. What do you say?

    Let me know please and I greatly appreciate the candor or any other suggestions.

    Good night and good morning, good morning and goodnight you lovely and cherished readers and supporters.

  • Day One, January 1st, 2024

    I woke up this morning realizing that I likely got myself an F, the first F in college, which I find feels … not lovely. And then came the thought about resolutions, the next year ahead of me, and the slew of everything else, health, love, life, the pursuit of.. I guess what we call happiness.

    But before I started thinking about myself, my lovely wife is also in the room, and I asked “you got any resolutions or anything coming up that you’re looking forward to for the next year?” She states “No, I don’t believe in those, I don’t find the sense cuz if you wanted to do it why not just do it why make a resolution? Instead of doing it regardless.” I tried to understand while denying the obvious aspect, it’s the first of the month of the first of the year. In all honesty it is a new year.

    So it does call for it doesn’t it? I guess at least a thought, a moment to think and wonder why do we set resolutions? Why do we choose the new year to make changes?

    Or, is it the fact that the New Year in that refreshing of the spring, that we all know is coming, it does call for change, it calls for growth so maybe that’s what it is maybe it’s that. There’s the idea that within that resolution we’re planting seed or we’re planting a seed to bloom in bounds and be beautiful and how that beauty is shared and appreciated I guess is the point.

    I started getting in to stoicism and while dealing into the philosophy of what it entails I feel we misunderstand the concept. It’s not selfish and a bullish type, it’s a sander and polisher of the actually light fixtures within us enabling the concept and the methodology of how to be a better person not just for ourselves but so we can be better everywhere.

    What’s your resolution? Do you have one, many, books worth?

    As I’ve written in the past my goals and intentions sometimes fall flat sometimes completely disappoint, sometimes never take off and die. With that I am doing what I can to at least journal so welcome. Day one week one month one of 2024 hopefully I won’t bore you, likely I will, I think we’re all prone to bore a Time or two r I will share my opinion share my thoughts come back report refute please by all means like and follow, respond.
