a quiet day at home #sol18

A day off at home, this may sound strange to the rest of the slicers. Since I'm retired and managing life with pulmonary hypertension, most days are at home days aside from walking as much as I can when weather and breathing conditions permit.



Yesterday, as I blogged, was busier than usual, occupied online, mostly with education -- meetup, forum and research. Lately, projects have been mostly education and advocacy related. So my day off was not doing those. I caught up with my community page, friends and art -- looking and sharing. OK so art activism is one of my curation projects. Then I found and signed up for an online course on art and social movements. A taste for learning is a hard habit to break.

With art on my mind, I changed my cover picture at Life in the Manor and points west (my version of spring cleaning), noting,

Time to change out the snow picture (especially since this morning's spring snow didn't last very long). Greener would be nice but we're not quite there yet either... there's always the magical realism version from Google's Deep Dream Generator. That or another art filter version will be next. Maybe I'll use the picture in today's #sol18 blog post too. It's probably time to change the cover photo on my timeline as well...one last beach before spring.

Here's that picture, a magical realism version of the view from my front porch, my own computer generated art work,

It was too windy to walk, so I stayed inside. Good excuse not to do laundry. Napped. Tomorrow we have a pizza party. As soon as I finish here, I'll post a reminder on the Manor page. Looking for slices, I found just the picture for that too.

Today I'm going with a pizza slice for tomorrow's Pizza Party at the Manor.
