“Red Moon Rising” Monoprint and digital

Well, we have finally moved back to our old neighborhood! The move went very smoothly. Now I just have to finish unpacking. So far everything has found a place but there is still a lot to be unpacked. The condo is even nicer than I thought it would be. It is warm and cozy even with the cooler temps. And so bright and sunny! The living room gets full sun all morning long. My art table will be very nicely lit!

Yesterday we did some grocery shopping. The Whole Foods in Brighton is much nicer than I remembered it being. And the Trader Joes here has expanded and is literally the same size as the Stop and Shop!

Today I will try and go for a walk around the Muddy River. I haven’t done any walking since Monday other than short trips to Coolidge Corner for this and that. Every bone in my body hurts from all the unpacking but with the kitchen set up I can now slow down and unpack a little at a time.

I do so love the sounds of the city. It is music to my ears. Before we moved, sometimes people would say “oh it will be so noisy there…” Yes. But I like the noise of a city. It makes me feel alive. I do not do well in the quiet countryside. It feels like death to me. I have lived in a rural area only once before and I did not like that either. I am a city mouse for sure!

Hopefully this city mouse will get back to making some art very soon!
