 If you have been hanging around for a while I'm glad you are still here, if you are a new reader welcome.

If you have been following along you know that I like a creative challenge! I have begun to play around with Stable Diffusion and other AI art programs. I can't draw a straight line let alone create beautiful art work like a professional but the AI programs allow me to take an image that is in my head and create it for all to see.

Pinterest this will take you to my main Pinterest page for this ID cmarois60. I am debating if I should switch back to the old site as more people go there but it seems like a lot of work to copy everything over to the other ID cherylmarois.

I have been thinking about reorganizing my online life so that it takes less of my time but since nearly everything I do is connected to the computer I don't think I can do much. Today I have a few things I want to get done. Among them are giving you my personal lists and printing out the bits and bobs I need for my Journal.

These are 6 of my 10 or so lists for this month. As you can see I am continuing my study on Flora, this month it is plants that can heal/ hurt/ or both depending on what part you use and how much of it. I am going to work on a proper Fungi Board as I need to know a lot about them for my story. Or rather Woulfs story when ever I actually finish getting the plot figured out.

I have been using ChatGPT to flesh out details and Art AI to bring it alive. It is a slow process because I am doing everything on my own from thought to finished image. I am lucky that I have several people in my life who help me with different lessons but the final images are my own. That said I would like to introduce Woulf to you all and get your opinions of this guy as my main character.

Woulf (draft image)
Woulf is a striking figure in the enchanted forest, embodying a balance of youthful vigor and careful sophistication. With sleek, smooth black fur that glistens under the moonlight, he stands as a symbol of the untamed wilderness. His eyes, a keen amber, reveal a wisdom beyond his years, reflecting a deep connection to the mystical realm. Despite his wild nature, Woulf is meticulous about his appearance, moving with a fluid grace that speaks of both his lupine agility and the deliberate care he takes in presenting himself. As he navigates the enchanted forest, Woulf is not only a symbol of the wild but also a testament to the delicate equilibrium between the human and the primal.

 His world is separate from ours, a self contained forest maintained by a guardian spirit. It is in trouble. Something has made the Guardian sick. This in turn has caused the denizens of the forest to sicken as well. In particular it interferes with reproduction.

 I was on my way to see GD#3 in Aurora with my son when he made me an offer I couldn't refuse. Everlovin' was planning on coming down to get me that night after work. I was a little worried because it meant he would be very tired after working all day and then driving the 2 hrs to get me and the 2 hrs back cause we needed to be at the airport at 9:30 or so. My son said that Aurora was pretty close to where Everlovin' lives near the border of Toronto and Markham so he could drop me off and save Everlovin from having to make the trip. It also meant I could worry less about his heart and the fatigue he would be feeling with the time change between Ontario and Alberta. So instead of spending the night traveling dinner was provided by my MIL and I got to sit out under the gazebo and see all the pretty flowers my BIL has grown. I need to say before I go any further that I had never been on a jet before, I'd ridden in a fixed wing so it wasn't totally strange. I was beyon

Perhaps I was a little hasty...

 Last night all I could think about was getting out of this town and going to someplace safe and quiet.  Funny enough when I went searching for safe and affordable Peterborough was actually on the list and yes the list was new as of June 2022. Kinda surprised to find that we are actually pretty safe here despite all the stuff going on. I was watching Tik Tok and this guy was jogging down a street in Vancouver, there were literally dozens of tents and homeless all along the street. Made me realize that we do have it pretty good here even with the rents doubling in the last six months. I would rather not leave Ontario but the cheapest rents are in Quebec and one of the eastern provinces, I can't remember which one off the top of my head. This is scary Maybe I'll find a way to curb the urge to run away for awhile.

 Today we head to Calgary after E is done working. We packed up and checked out of the Sandman. I spent most of the day in a place called Cafe on 54. E joined me and grabbed himself a Reuban when he was done which he seem to like. I worked on the journal and drew a picture of Edmonton before we landed.  Scan and add photo of art work. We had to wait for the network guy while he returned his car so we hung out at a nearby gas station though it was a bit more than that with a car wash and a convenience store. It was a long wait so I grabbed some junk food. I lost one of the things I bought but the 7 day croissant was pretty good. The network guy wanted to stop at a beach called Sylvan Beach on the way to Calgary. It was interesting, one of those lakes where you can walk out a long way before it starts to get above your knees. There was a camping area, a playground, and a small marina.     I walked along the kelp-strewn beach looking for a stone or two, what I found were waterlogged wood
