at last...

at last the arts commission grant is done.

I got down to kumed about 830 this morning.
I had to turn in my timesheet and make a few
corrections to the grant.

I spent the remainder of the morning at the RDA
with mikey. we looked over the grant; as did Wendy.
She noticed a few points to change. And I vowed to
correct, bind, and mail it off today. I was going to ride
it down to topeka; it will always be my belief that there is
no better connection than the face to face...
...but as always there is never enough time...eh?

so...wish us luck.
have a good weekend.

June 1st event

If you are able...Sunday June 1st...1-4pm...come out to 42nd and Mission Rd. We will plant flowers, shrubs, and...what else mikey?

;-)

ah,...I kid mikey.

The sky shined something sweet by the afternoon on saturday so chris padgett, a young adult I know from my public library, went out to the 42nd Street lot to paint the sign to prompt attention to the coming mural.

Chris Padgett just graduated from high school, just turned 18 years old, and just at this very moment stepped up to the desk here at the library. ;-)

He is a tremendously talented young man--he worked on the intellectual freedom mural here at the library and created 3 original t-shirts for the fashion show last month. He's also very important to me in respects to him simply being him.

I will post pictures above.

I woke up to a steady rain fall and a text from mikey. it read: It's rainy. should we postpone?

we did.

mikey re-scheduled the event for Sunday June 1st; in the afternoon.

I will resend information via email on tuesday.

I am off to a much desired break; have a good holiday weekend.

friday we made preperations for join hands day.
we took a trip to lowes.
brian finished mowing.
mikey created the design for the plants, flowers and shrubs.
my step-father adrian came down and sawed down
some trees and set up his generator for mikey's till.
we also picked up some trash.

the overcasted gray sky loomed above and we wondered
& hoped the rain would stay away.

prep for "join hands day"

my dear friend brian longfellow cutting the grass above. my stepfather and mikey working out the generator below.

sometimes it only takes a moment...

i just read an email from mikey, here's a part of it:

Hi Angel~ So I was out disc golfing and met your friend Brian. He was cutting the grass and said he will come back tommorow to finish it up. I was looking at the area around the sign and came up with a kind of neat idea for the landscaping. Think butterfly~~~

what I find most endearing about both mikey and brian resides in this very moment.
