And I simply have to.
Re-created art…. part whatever.
Do you have too much quarantine time on your hands?
Do you need to keep the kids entertained?
Maybe you just want to see your husband use the vacuum cleaner.
Whatever the reason…..
Please.
Re-create some art because I’m loving them!
Because some things you just can’t get enough of.
This is quite true, at least for me. I’m constantly amazed at the stories on social media of how productive people are being with their forced spare time. Amazed, and a little annoyed.
Stop it over achievers…
You’re making me look bad.
It was all right there…
We just didn’t see it.
If only I had stocked up.
My dream home in Tuscany would be that much closer.
Nothing.
Not a single thing…
I ventured out to the grocery store again this morning and was feeling a bit gangsta.
Although in retrospect, a pink butterflied gangsta probably wasn’t all that frightening.
Still no toilet paper or flour on the shelves…. and may I just say?
This is getting old.
It’s been what, almost 2 months since the virus started spreading? Come on people…. the supply chain is still moving, food is still available. Stop the panic buying FFS!
Today?
The soup Nazi made an appearance.
Apparently, the run on soup has begun.
Unless you want creamy cauliflower or butternut squash.
There was plenty of that.
I’m beginning to think Direct TV is screwing with me.
They know I’m stuck at home and subject to my husband’s absolute control over the remote during the quarantine.
The reason I know this?
All the quality programming they’re providing.
Last weekend?
It was Robbie the Robot in Forbidden Planet.
A classic the husband just had to watch.
Lucky me.
Have you hugged your robot today?
As a rule, my husband is not a reader.
At work he has to read dry as dust government documents and regulations all day long …. so for relaxation at home? It’s usually mindless television.
He does however keep a steady supply of magazines for perusing while on the throne.
And since my late aunt ran a department at Time/Life, Time magazine has always been a staple.
My question is….
Should I be worried by what he’s reading this week?
Tell me….
Do you see it?
I look at it everyday and think, damn…. that’s just cruel.
Yes.
It’s the magazine bucket.
It’s mocking me.
I don’t normally blog about my husband’s job.
He is a Fed after all, they might be listening.
But this morning he received a message from a man who was threatening to shoot drones out of the sky. While that in itself was troubling… the man’s explanation was even more so.
You see the drones were flying over his house and scanning him with infrared rays. He was wrapping himself in tin foil for protection while sleeping, but would soon run out of supplies.
Well, sure.
Who can blame him for being upset? Everyone knows the anal probe comes after the infrared rays….. and that’s enough to ruin anyone’s day.
The courthouse passed him off to the sheriff… who passed him off to the State Police… who passed him off to the husband’s office…. and now my other half has to deal with him.
Quarantine fever.
It’s driving them out of the woodwork.
(Because we all need to laugh or we’ll kill the spouses we’re locked in the house with.)
This person found an interesting, albeit slightly creepy…. way to re-purpose Amazon boxes.
Imagine putting a leash on that and taking it out for a walk?
Here…. our niece’s son used his spare time to jump on a trampoline with his chicken.
The chicken was unavailable for comment.
I admit I didn’t know about the latest ribbon trend…
But I sure do wish I lived in this fellow’s neighborhood.
Margarita home delivery?
Long live the quarantine!
Here are the last 3 examples I’ll gleefully share with childlike enthusiasm bore you with.
The original…
The re-creation…
I’m going to go out on a limb and say this fellow might have enjoyed the exercise a little too much.
The original….
The re-creation…
Proof positive modern life is lame.
And because this one literally made me snort, I saved it for last.
The original…
The re-creation…
Hope you enjoyed these as much as I did.
Because we all need a little more laughter these days.
A few more clever examples.
American Gothic anyone…?
Madonna and Child.
Well, not quite.
And if modern art is your thing?
Then here….
Best use of Kraft American cheese….. ever.
River's world.....
