Chore Day, Sep 19, 2020: Laundry, Flat Bread, Yard work, and Foreshortening

View fullsize

I was productive today: I raked up the 6-inch thick bed of needles our infernal Sequoia tree dumped on the house during the last wind storm. This has turned out to be a yearly occurrence that was I didn’t anticipate when I bought the house. Every two weeks I fill the yard waste hamper with those pesky needles. It takes about 15 weeks to clear them out. Sometimes I get lazy and shirk my duty, but I try to do my best.

I also did the laundry. After that I made two batches of sweet potato-buckwheat flatbread. After that I sat down and practiced drawing foreshortened hands. I’ve got a lot to learn. Fortunately, I love learning.
