Much of the text in this piece is far too personal for me to talk about comfortably at this point. i will, however, say that i chopped up one of my favorite postcards, a photo of the brilliant Ray Charles in mid-song, belting his ass off. It's an incredible picture, the creases on his brow like a topographical map. i'm still not sure why i did it, because i do really admire the postcard. It could be that his expression was how i was feeling at the time.
i've had two distinct dreams of my mom since she died, and the second was just this morning, May 2nd, 2007, close to the two-year anniversary of her death. Both of these dreams felt more like visitations than the product of sleep.
In the first dream, which happened just before her one year memorial, i got a phone call from her, and it was exactly the kind of phone call i might have received from my mom had she been living. She was calling to tell me that my uncle had given me the wrong time and that because of the train schedule from Chicago to Holland, Michigan, i was going to miss her memorial. A dead woman calling to help me attend the anniversary of her death... And my uncle giving me the wrong information about the memorial is also something that could have easily happened. Even the tone in my moms voice on the phone in my dream was perfect, a breathy mix of frustration, panic, and disappointment in her brother, a tone i had heard more than once from her while she lived. This dream came to me the day before i left for Michigan to attend the actual memorial.
The second dream was more emotional for me. i woke up from it with tears on my cheeks. i was in some kind of lobby, a restaurant or hotel, and my mom approached me and gave me a hug. She looked just as she did during her last period of really good health, and she said it was nice to see me. i asked her if my grandmother, my yia-yia was with her, and my mom said "we're all here, it's kind of circular where we're all connected." She made a twirling motion with her finger which implied that while i was talking to my mom in the dream i was also talking to my yia-yia, who died when i was ten. There was a little more dialog but of course i've lost it over the course of the work day. i was rushing this morning and some of it slipped away from me.
i felt good, sad but good, when i woke from the dream. Right away i realized that it's been nearly two years since her death and i wondered if this would last, if every year before her anniversary i would get some kind of message from her. i hope so. It's important to stay in touch with family.

I loved this wall. It had so many interesting things on it. It was hard to walk away from it.
She does have a Yoga mat , but with the cigarette cancer stick and texting people who probably will never read the texts , she's probably nowhere near inner peace and very close to sheep herd mentality

"The intensely revealing novel of a man who traded love for desire and desire for novelty..."
La U.S. 66, también conocida como U.S. Route 66, Route 66 (Ruta 66), The Main Street of America (La calle principal de América), The Mother Road (La carretera madre) y la Will Rogers Highway (Carretera de Will Rogers), formó parte de la Red de Carreteras Federales de Estados Unidos. Una de las rutas federales originales, la U.S. 66 se estableció el 11 de noviembre de 1926, aunque no se señalizó hasta el año siguiente (...). La Ruta 66 fue objeto de muchas mejoras y cambios de trazado, muchos de ellos afectaron bastante a la longitud de la carretera, uno de ellos fue el traslado del final de Los Ángeles a Santa Mónica. Contrariamente a la creencia generalizada, la Ruta 66 nunca llegó al océano; acababa en lo que era el inicio de la U.S. 101, lo que es hoy la intersección de Olympic Boulevard con Lincoln Boulevard. Nunca estuvo en la intersección de Ocean Boulevard con Santa Monica Boulevard, a pesar de que haya una placa dedicatoria de la Ruta 66 como la Will Rogers Highway (Carretera de Will Rogers) allí.
La Ruta 66 fue el principal itinerario de los emigrantes que iban al oeste, especialmente durante las tormentas de polvo de los años 30, y sostuvo la economía de las zonas que la carretera atravesaba. La gente que prosperó durante la creciente popularidad de la carretera fue la misma que años más tarde luchó por mantenerla viva cuando empezó a construirse la nueva Red de Autopistas Interestatales de Estados Unidos.
La U.S. 66 (Ruta 66) fue descatalogada (es decir, oficialmente retirada de la Red de Carreteras de Estados Unidos) el 27 de junio de 1985 después de decidirse que la carretera ya no era relevante y haber sido reemplazada por la Red de Autopistas Interestatales de Estados Unidos. Partes de la carretera que discurre a través de Illinois, Nuevo México y Arizona han sido señalizadas con letreros de "Historic Route 66" (Ruta Histórica 66) y ha vuelto a aparecer en los mapas de carreteras de esta forma.
--------------------
U.S. Route 66 (also known as the Will Rogers Highway after the humorist, and colloquially known as the "Main Street of America" or the "Mother Road") was a highway within the U.S. Highway System. One of the original U.S. highways, Route 66 was established on November 11, 1926 -- with road signs erected the following year. The highway, which became one of the most famous roads in America, originally ran from Chicago, Illinois, through Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California, before ending at Los Angeles, covering a total of 2,448 miles (3,940 km). It was recognized in popular culture by both a hit song (written by Bobby Troup, originally recorded by the Nat King Cole Trio in 1946, and later performed by such artists as Chuck Berry, The Rolling Stones, The Manhattan Transfer and Depeche Mode) and the Route 66 television show in the 1960s.
Route 66 underwent many improvements and realignments over its lifetime, changing its path and overall length. Many of the realignments gave travelers faster or safer routes, or detoured around city congestion. One realignment moved the western endpoint farther west from downtown Los Angeles to Santa Monica.
Route 66 served as a major path for those who migrated west, especially during the Dust Bowl of the 1930s, and it supported the economies of the communities through which the road passed. People doing business along the route became prosperous due to the growing popularity of the highway, and those same people later fought to keep the highway alive in the face of the growing threat of being bypassed by the new Interstate Highway System.
U.S. 66 was officially removed from the United States Highway System on June 27, 1985 after it was decided the route was no longer relevant and had been replaced by the Interstate Highway System. Portions of the road that passed through Illinois, Missouri, New Mexico, and Arizona have been designated a National Scenic Byway of the name "Historic Route 66". It has begun to return to maps in this form. Some portions of the road in southern California have been redesignated "State Route 66", and others bear "Historic Route 66" signs and relevant historic information.

this was a simple piece which i paint with bang(italy) and gizmo(Iceland) in 798 art zone ~ 798 is one of the most nice place for graffiti in beijing (also in CHINA i think ).At first ,this place not allowed graffiti stuff . after our unremitting efforts ( paint and paint and paint ……).The security of 798 finally forced to accept graffiti ……and . this piece was tagged by a hater later that month.
1. I am thankful for clean windows!!
2. I am thankful for finally finding a word for when I really want to take a photograph but am too shy to bring out my camera or don’t want to miss the moment by fiddling. The term is unphotographable.
3. I am thankful for finally ordering an external hard drive to back up all of my files, at once, in one place. Thanks Joe of answering my query. :)
4. I am thankful for Tim Brownson’s requirements and offering of free life coaching because it helped to sift through my life where I have shown commitment to making improvements and see that I do work really hard to do and be better .. and I’m not near as flaky as I had thought I was. To write something where the thoughts need to be more cohesive is also very good practise, especially since it had a deadline. Asking for and allowing something good that I would like is also important forward movement for me. Interesting thing about Tim is that he is one of those people that I kept coming across several times a week for a few weeks. He also co-authored an interesting, entertaining and useful book How to be Rich and Happy I came across a few times. I don’t know about the title but the book looks good. Update: I submitted the first story and made the top six out of twenty-eight. The next part was to pare the 1000 word essay down to under 350 words. The 350 word story will be printed with the other five entries this Friday for readers of Tim’s blog to vote. I can hardly wait to read all of the stories! :) Submitting a story was a huge hurdle for me because in the past I have been so insecure about my writing abilities I would write something but get frustrated and just give up even if I believed the story I had to tell was worthy of mention. Tim also left some very tasty bread crumbs in the form of helpful links so whether my story is chosen or not I am still learning and growing heaps .. and that my dears is certainly something to be thankful for! ;) [Noter bien: if you are offended by swearing, following any of the links in this gratitude point may not be your cup of tea.]
5. I am thankful for being challenged on how I write my gratitude lists because it is helping me to communicate more concisely, further differentiate between myself and my work and helped me to finish a medium sized artwork that I had began weeks ago. In the finishing of the piece I was able to work through why my artwork and writing are so dense and involved. I know my artwork and writing is not for everyone, to look at it and connect with takes a certain personal time commitment on the part of the viewer. The work is not particularly accessible because there is a lot of writing in a small amount of space. My hope is that the reader/viewer will be rewarded with some connection they were able to make with their thoughts and hopes to another person to feel more connected to another. Or something to that effect.
6. I am thankful that I made the choice to stop avoiding making art by returning to university.
7. I am thankful that P sent this article this week 60 second health and fitness boosters - this is perfect because I have been working on creating better balance between work and exercise. Everything just goes so much better when I get enough exercise.
8. I am thankful for getting a bunch of administration work done this week. I had been letting it hang over my head for over a month.
9. I am thankful for the cool serendipity this week, specifically the Salvation Army Thrift Store pick up truck parked outside my office window and getting up to get something from the desk at just the right time. I was able to give a couple huge bags of clothes and some house hold items. The guy even came up to get some extra things so I didn’t have to go back out in the cold and wind .. I forgot to ask his name unfortunately. He told me that you can phone the store and they go out to pick things up Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am so thankful to get the things to people who can put them to use instead of sitting in a corner or closet AND that someone came to my door and took them away. I felt so much lighter and almost giddy afterward, so much so that I could barely sit still to work! Today as I was tidying up I thought of a bunch of other items in boxes that can go to better homes. For a while now I have been consciously culling my life of things (and ideas) that I don’t really enjoy or use anymore. I am often amazed at what I find that I have hung onto for YEARS and find that the reason I had kept it has long since expired. Out it goes! :) The more I cull the more I enjoy what I do have .. because I can actually see and experience it!
10. I am thankful for the first day of snow because traffic is slower, people are kinder, friendlier and more helpful of neighbours. I also like that the snow buffers traffic sounds and loud stereo people tend to stay home. That said, I am also glad that the clouds parted and let the sun shine in my window this evening! :) I am also thankful for the men and women that work with the city, Wascana Centre Authority and everyone else on the entire planet that clears walkways!! :)
11. I am thankful for getting bread and some peanut butter oatmeal cookies made this evening. I was down to my last crust of bread. Tomorrow’s mission; foraging for fresh food and dried legumes! :)
12. I am thankful for getting better at making check lists of things that I want done and assigning due dates to myself because it allows me to be better directed and see that I have actually done some stuff and the part of my brain that tells me I don’t do nearly enough can relax! I had my first official staff meeting with myself this week. I found it useful because it enabled me to look at what I am doing from different perspectives. One perspective as the boss in charge of direction and making sure the work gets done and another perspective as the worker who is sometimes temperamental and just doesn’t dang well feel like doing the work. During the staff meeting I ask myself the questions of Why I do the thing I do? How I choose to do the thing I do? and What exactly is it that I do? and was surprised to learn some things about how Me Inc. versus how Monique does things.
13. I am thankful that although sometimes thinking about the things (and people) that I am thankful for delays sleep, I always wake up feeling refreshed and in a good mood. Gratitude lists are such fascinating things, once you get into the habit they sort of permeate throughout your entire life. Speaking the day’s list has been one of the most important catalysts for change I have ever implemented in my life.
14. I watched this TED talk from Charlie Gilkey this afternoon and it is causing me to re-evaluate some of my choices. I am thankful for Charlie’s blog, I enjoy and connect with it more as the weeks go by.
15. I am thankful for remembering some important things this week. Mainly that no matter what seems to happen, good things always, always come of it.
16. Thank you for reading, have a delightful week .. unless you have other plans!? ;)
PS: I took the photo upside down because the light and framing worked better that way. I left it upside down because it worked better with the subject of the text in the photo.

Proyecto paisaje urbano en Tetuán
Plaza del poeta Leopoldo Luis, calles Matadero con Ángel Puech, Hierbabuena, Lope de Haro, Marqués de Viana, Almortas… Barrio de Tetuán, Madrid
Proyecto Tetuán para la mejora de paisaje urbano de Tetuán tiene como objeto desarrollar una experiencia para explorar las posibilidades de mejora del paisaje urbano mediante intervenciones de carácter artístico durante 2013. Esta acción se encuentra entre las recogidas en el Plan Estratégico de Cultura del Ayuntamiento de Madrid 2012-2015 (PECAM) y se inscribe dentro de las líneas encaminadas al fomento de la creatividad, la participación pública y la difusión en la mejora del paisaje urbano. El proyecto contempla, por tanto, dos ámbitos de trabajo: por un lado el orientado a los artistas y sus intervenciones y, por otro, las tareas de difusión y participación ciudadana.
Tras varias sesiones de trabajo abiertas llevadas a cabo durante este año, se generado un grupo de trabajo para la gestión compartida del proyecto del que forman parte: integrantes de Red de agentes culturales de Tetuán (entre los que se encuentran Moenia, Pkmn, Taller de Casquería, Mood Studio o Bea Burgos, de Aquí Tetuán) colectivos dedicados a la creación, la arquitectura o el paisajismo vinculados o interesados en trabajar en el distrito de Tetuán, como Estudio Montes, Pez Arquitectos, Ahora Arquitectura y La Galería Magdalena, representantes o agentes vecinales del barrio, agentes de la Dirección General de Paisaje Urbano, de la Junta Municipal de Distrito e Intermediae.
Tras desarrollar conjuntamente el proyecto y definir las actuaciones a llevar a cabo, el grupo de trabajo ha invitado a otros colectivos a implicarse en acciones concretas acompañadas por agentes vinculados al distrito de Tetuán que han participado en la definición del proyecto. Entre ellos Germinando, Perricac, La Fresquera, Basurama y Zuloark.
También forman parte del proyecto los artistas implicados en los muros artísticos gestionados por el equipo de la Dirección General de Paisaje Urbano testeando el funcionamiento de la Oficina de Gestión de Muros. Entre ellos se encuentran Suso 33, San, E1000, Spy y Borondo.
La propuesta global del proyecto se concreta en cuatro emplazamientos principales, definidos colectivamente y gracias a la colaboración de la junta municipal de distrito que elaboró el catalogo de solares de propiedad municipal, así como del Área de Urbanismo que facilitó la información sobre la calificación de los terrenos para elegir el lugar del Huerto: la Plaza Leopoldo Luis, el solar situado en la calle Nuestra Señora del Carmen, el solar de la calle López de Haro con Berruguete y el solar de calle Matadero con Ángel Puech. Cada emplazamiento agrupa las distintas intervenciones y colaboradores.
- La Plaza Leopoldo Luis: Intervienen Estudio Montes y Pez Arquitectos, Germinando y Perricac.
- El solar de calle Matadero con Ángel Puech: Intervienen Moenia, La Fresquera, La Galería Magadena y Mood Studio.
- El solar situado en la Calle Hierbabuena: Intervienen Pkmn y Taller de Casquería.
- El solar de la calle Lope de Haro: Intervienen Basurama y Zuloark.
- Además Aquí Tetuán, Bea Burgos, llevará a cabo la intervención “Ventanas a Tetuán” basado participación vecinal y la recuperación de la memoria del distrito. A través de las ventanas, metáforas de la memoria de los ciudadanos, el proyecto trata de recuperar el paisaje urbano que no está presente físicamente, o que tan solo se intuye a partir de ciertos elementos - una fuente, un ladrillo, una acera, un adoquín -pero sigue existiendo en la mente de los vecinos. Mood Studio y La Galería Magdalena llevarán a cabo la documentación del proyecto a través de fotografías, retratos de los vecinos e interacciones a pie de calle que generarán un material fotográfico que será expuesto a posteriori. Miguel Díaz de Ahora Arquitectura propone un programa de paseos donde encontramos de lugares desconocidos y un itinerario guiado desde un punto de vista urbano para mostrar las intervenciones realizadas, su desarrollo y su entorno.
