Visiting rskrakau!
This last weekend my dear friend ~rskrakau (https://www.deviantart.com/rskrakau) rskrakau (https://www.deviantart.com/rskrakau) had his first art exposition since fatherhood. For several years I have been in love with his amazing work, and very fond of the kind and supportive person behind it all. When I read about his exposition I was thrilled for the opportunity to meet the ART-ist, and his work, in real life. :)
I managed to charter my parents to pet-sit our animals and we were welcome to stay with Rainer and his lovely family. So we ( MrSharquelle (https://www.deviantart.com/mrsharquelle) and yours truly) packed our stuff and hit the road for the beautiful 5-hour drive from our home on the floodplains of Niedersachsen to the vineyard cove

8 Facts about Sirkka
1 Sirkka’s name actually means ‘cricket’ in Finnish. I had no clue until some of my Finnish readers told me that, I think it’s rather cute! :aww:
2 I spotted the name on the credits of a Nightwish concert dvd while I was looking for a proper Nordic name for my Nord OC who was still nameless at that time. It met my requirements of having a strong short name that sounded

Aronansa (what a surprise, huh?)
1 She has just turned 72 at the start of chapter 001, which would classify her as a young adult in the Bosmer aging process.

BACK!
Hello all,
It is weird to see that the World has reached February and in my head it is still mid-December. Time stood still, people say that so often but for me it really did. I still have the Word docs open with my partial replies to some of my friends, stopped mid-sentence. I took down most of the decorations but I still have to get rid of that dusty Christmas tree from the living room. I had hoped to send my wedding invitations before the Holidays and I blink my eyes at all those silly daffodils that wake up around me- “It is still December you guys, oh wait… no, it is not.”

Why?
Because we are prisoners of our minds. All our thoughts, naughty or nice, reverberate in our heads and our hearts, and there they shine the blinding brightest. All of the things we perceive as flaws; too fat, too dumb, too clumsy, too whatever—they’re magnified when we look at them because they never go away.
It reminds me of something I read years ago: hold a glass of water in your outstretched arm for as long as you can.
It’s easy.
For a while.
But the longer you hold it, the heavier it gets.
The same thing happens with worries and perceived flaws. Even when we try to fix the flaws, we sometimes fall short, and the weight gets heavier. So often we are our own worst enemies.
Still. . . it's a good message.
