Dreams and reality

"Pink rain falling on dirty snow", a tribute to my friend Cecilie who wears a tiara and loves pink. Life size tiles or canvas. Pink, dirty white, dun; silver, rhinestones. With poem and video.

or

"Boy in the cracked mirror", a woman looking back at the boy she used to be. Glazed tiles with a border evoking ancient uncovered tiles (pieces missing, irregular borders...) With poem and video.

or...

"Copper melting on silk", a multi-media study in oranges and greens of copper, silk, glass and malachite. But what subject?

You see... I dream a lot. I can usually generate ideas like a fountain. Sure, some may resemble vomit... but ideas are not my problem. Taking those ideas and making them a reality is my problem.

Will any of the above get done as envisioned? Not likely. There's a 0.001% chance at this point. But... maybe a poem or two. Likely, a >50% chance.

So what do I need to do by the end of this week other than dream:

1. Postcard sent to Gary.
2. Postcards to other friends? I have the US stamps.
3. Trip decisions. Looked into Manila from Taiwan this January. My friend Rhyan will be there.
4. Anywhere else in March/April other than Spain, Portugal, Morocco? Been looking at Tunisia. Greece?
5. Packing, cleaning, washing ... needs to be started.
6. Business cards or booklets ... very important for Taiwan.
7. Watering and fertilizing ALL the plants!
8. Decide on new phone, new computer for travel. This will cost money.

The more I do by the end of the week, the better it will be next week with a shorter list. A list of 5 is the normal limit.
