My Mother's Painting, originally uploaded by PartsnPieces.
My mother began teaching herself to paint in 1977. She painted this scene in 1990. To offer some scale, this painting is about 4' square. This was hers; now it's mine. (Mollie Rodgers Queen: August 8, 1939 -- March 6, 2007)

Tattoos on the Korean Clerk's Hands, originally uploaded by PartsnPieces.
The store clerk told me all about her tattoos. She's had them seven years, and she puts lotion on them everyday. She has also had them (re)inked so the color won't fade. I admire her.

Two Windows, originally uploaded by PartsnPieces.
When I was 12, my family and I lived in a house on Wheeler Ave. I found that house today-- abandoned and very very old, lived in by many people. I walked through the house, remembering who I was as a young girl, my family at the time and who we were together. These days-- today-- I strive to remember the good. These two windows were in a room I shared with my younger sister. I think that truck was there before, too. . . a very long time ago. (More Wheeler Ave. photos are on Flickr.)

Even before they are ripe for the picking, these gummy bears are anatomically correct . . . especially the green ones.
69/365 (a): Gummy Bear Bush
Gummy Bear Bush, originally uploaded by PartsnPieces.
Poor Gummy Bears. In New York, they freeze to death. In Delaware, they fall to their demise, then the remaining gummies perform in a conga line as some sort of celebration/grief. In Georgia, well, they become part of multigummyism. At least their end is quick (microwaves are quick, right?). In some place I don't know and in Oaklandia and in the "Land of Trees," the poor Gummies are stretched and prodded and squished and pricked with sharp objects. Ok, in Boston, they get to read, and some pose as art, but still.
Gummy Bears should just stay in Texas where they thrive. Here, they even grow on trees.

Isaiah 41:10, originally uploaded by PartsnPieces.
Tonight we agreed to a DNR for our mother. While I am, legally, my mother's next of kin and the one who authorizes medical procedures for her, my sisters and I made the DNR decision together. Afterwards, they each went home to husbands who could comfort them and tell them the decision was an appropriate one . . . that they should not feel guilty as the decision was based on reason and fact, not emotion. I very rarely think about being remarried, connected in that way. Until tonight.
