A Case of Unsurity (ice storm)

February 23, 2015

I spent some time helping watch my nephews in North Georgia. Maria had one eye on them and I another. An ice storm had knocked out power for a few days. I spent my time drawing, being a judge, keeping a fireplace full of fire, keeping the pipes from freezing, hoping for a little more ice or snow (since we had some already), cooking boy dinners, washing plates, sipping a little Ron del Barrilito Puerto Rican rum, thinking about my life over the past year, trying to do sketches for a children’s book, drinking large amounts of hot tea and coffee and dealing with a giant case of mental “unsurity.”

Now I am back in Atlanta and there is no ice or nephews but I still have “unsurity” and I could dig up some Barrilitos if need be. I have a few big projects coming up.

We should always travel and see new places. We should always venture out and get our hands dirty. Concentrate on the positive. That is what we keep saying aorund here. More hot tea please!
