As much as I’m looking forward to getting back to my drafting board today who wants to go out in this mess? Stormy days beckon me to stay home and be calm. I thought I mention it’s time for the Oaks-Pittman Art Salon V while enjoying gifts from friends, like a pear off an esplanade Blount Mansion’s director gave us to try. Mutual community representation all in one spot. #jclayendecker #gladiolas #lawinteriors @farmerforager #glasseggs #blountmansion #oakspittmancollaboration (at Temple-Pittman House) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1d0h96Anti/?igshid=1q7x2u267u4gf

Bring me intelligence, bring me a sense of humor. Bring me thoughtfulness and a light hand of care. Bring me a pleasantness upon my eyes and heart full of kindness. Bring me calm. Bring me peace. Oh to dream of someone that can do all that with quiet assuredness and they find you somewhat interesting in return is what I’ve needed all along. I’ll happily protect the solitude you crave and hopefully make you smile sometimes that sweet closed mouth smile. #unworthy #luckyman #itjustworksforus #jclayendecker #home #happyanniversary #bringmecoffee #keepthehearthwarmforeachother (at Temple-Pittman House) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByRCHMWgo-e/?igshid=191jrwt9pt30y
