New Desk, I Vote for Linda Sue

I went to vote fifteen minutes after polls opened at 7 a.m.--because time change--at my new polling place (since I changed neighborhoods). I stopped for free coffee at one of the outdoor neighborhood alliance booths, and I signed up for their online newsletter--I'd like to meet more people in the area.
A cold morning: they had bonfires.

As always, after voting I asked for an extra sticker for the accompanying girlette.
I'm surprised that people are perfectly happy to play along... Perhaps--probably--I'm using my radar, though, and not asking people I can sense would sneer at dolls.

Now the days are so dark, I set up a desk in my south-facing bedroom window..

You can see on my laptop that I'm listening to That's What They Say--a 4 to 6 minute podcast about language.
My idea is to do more quickie watercolors--in the time it takes to listen to one or two of these episodes.
Here's Frankcolumbo with a glass Christmas tree ornament--will be perfect for the #ToysRecreatePaintings Frida Kahlo prompt this week:

 

Speaking of which, Linda Sue emailed me an early entry (she's not in the World of MarkZ).
Linda Sue's art is a huge dollop of delight in my world.
