2023 July Deck of Hexjeff Project Done, Commence the Hexjeff Tapes

I am a hotter
mess than I know and I know
You have no idea

nor me about you
Painters tape doesn’t absorb
water, I’d forgot

I hadn’t tried it
since last night. I’m not taking

2023 July 7

I have been using painters’ tape for a month or more but always removed it, this is the first that I deliberately left on.

2023 April Michigan

Driving to Michigan April Fools Day for a week with our daughter and son-in-law. Packed no paint, no canvases, I can’t paint on vacations, no time, no privacy, no urge, no point worrying what to bring, what not, to not paint

If I take no paint and canvases to Michigan and want to paint I can blame me for not taking paint and canvases to Michigan, deem this a failed experiment, pack them for Maine this July, end up pissed at me not painting when I packed paint and canvases for Maine this July

busy extreme burping on my shoe

I need to start a new elephant
note page for March but was

sentence formatting another
month in a platform I’d rather
paint bricks than use. No
