Ding!
Fire was still going,,,a good start
#1 in a series
Yeah, so, it's above freezing today.
And it didn't snow. Just some light rain before we get down to -3 tomorrow.
So, some extra time this morning. Yesterday was chore day. Lotsa wood stacked inside, driveway shoveled
I began a new series with coffee.
I'll call it WTF. There will, apparently, be lots to work with in terms of inspiration. Working in a series can really help me sort out my thoughts.
It seems odd that the phrase What the Fuck is defined as a rude phrase used to show that you are surprised or annoyed, or do not care about something. But I am confused and feel it is more of a reaction to the same.
Don’t know where my post is? Is it cause I used the word in it as explanation
It’s there.
Great post captured my thoughts/ brain function correctly. Reminded me of a paper I wrote in high school how fuck is not a dirty word just a way to express so much. I believe I got an “A” on the paper but teacher didn’t want any other teacher to see it. 😊
Ha!
WTF!
Where’s the like button!
❤️All of it & the comments.
❤️ ha!

Midwinter woman lowering and very tired…kindness always wins.
There is always kindness, it’s great.
Love this! I just started a series of little tapestries called 28 Days (a reference to some medical stuff that’s going on). There’s going to be lots of WTF in that series, too! I totally agree that working in a series can help sort things out. Hard to believe everything that is swirling around us right now. Thanks so much for being here & sharing your life with us! Keep warm!
Yes, wtf is everywhere!
Love it , the expression says it all! And yes , much inspiration to be had these days…. everywhere, even across the pond here in Scotland 😒
Let’s stay sane! And kind…
Thanks for the laugh & the reality check, Jude! Another great free synopsis of the day’s accurate news is from historian Heather Cox Richardson, titled ‘Letters from an American’ at heathercoxrichardson@substack.com You can sign up for free to receive her wonderful daily record of events.
It’s gonna take a lot of us to keep the fire burning
I really had to laugh when you mentioned that there is lots of inspiration around for the WTF series. So good also to have a sense of humor about things. Thanks so much for providing such a lovely corner on the internet that I feel connected to.
Yes, store up the laughter, medicine…
WTF is perfect.
Except for your new house, which is perfect. Did you move to the North Pole? Brrr.
I think so!!! 🥶
Welcome to Friday?!
🙃
Count me in for this series! Go JUDE!
👍
Hello. You have a meeting… That’s nice.🍀
I do believe WTF is THE most appropriate response to this moment, sadly. Sweet, confused moon face.
Works for me…
WTF….one of my favourite phrases…that made me grin..so versatile and full of promise :):)
✌️
Gotta say I do believe most of us, certainly in our little group here, are feeling the very same. ( As is a giant portion of the world)
I love your expressions, Jude.
So illustrative and evocative.
WTFrickin’ hell, indeed
My cousin is a Hollywood screenwriter; even he couldn’t make up this garbage.
😵💫
….I gotta get more seeds….
My garlic just sprouted. Made me happy.
You got it right Jude 👍🏻
Yeah I feel the same! 😕
A Common Sense maybe
Hilarious but hate swearing…..seems not so imaginative and less poetic than it deserves for an exclamation of the unexpected….love your stitchin though !
Fits to the times… and characters.
Jude, I love your new series theme; no doubt it will be revealing and possibly instructive. I wish you insight, as you begin this series, and totally agree with the comments here. Wise words from Nancy: ” It may last our lifetimes “.
I look forward to it. A way to process.
W.T.F. Trump is less of a
“I can fix that,” and more of a “I’ll fix them!”
Ugh.
Revenge is a sign of weakness.
Yes!
Perfect moon expression! Yes, this could be a long series!❤️
Right?
Jude~ Oh how this face captures my morning phone call with Social Security!! 😂
I love it!! You really do make the most expressive faces.
I think the WTF series could last our lifetimes. Oy.
Absolutely…
WTF brought to mind the Tiny Pricks Project that started back in 2018 … I stopped following it on Instagram at some point, but today I went back and found this one … https://www.instagram.com/p/DFDME9HRqDU/?igsh=Znp0NWRrYXA1amsx
Liz~ Thanks for the chuckle! Much needed
👍
Thanks Liz! Great synopsis of the day’s news!
Oops.. I was replying to the wrong comment, but I’m going to check out the instagram site too!
Inspiring! Thank you.

I have several contributions to stitch myself…
Ah, yes…
I say wtf multiple times a day. As the song goes – what’s so funny about peace, love and understanding…
🤓✌️
Popped in on my lunch break to find this… yep lots to work with!
Oh yeah…
WTF gives you the freedom to do whatever you want.
Stay warm and have fun!
A Forever Series maybe
Jude, I love the face on the moon. You have captured melancholy and confusion. Yay to the series.
One of my favorite places to get news is a newsletter called
“What the Fuck Just happened today”. For free he summarizes the days news, in about one page, and gives you links if you want to know more. It is a sip of overview amidst the firehose of details. I recommend it. I have trouble though when people ask me things I reliably read to say the title 🙂 WTFJHT

Thank you for this Sharon!
Thanks Sharon, great synopsis of the day’s news.
