Thank you for finding the words I've been searching for. We're in pretty much the same situation (minus the outdoor plants and filha). Life here is just life. And that's great!

Love this LaDonna. Maybe you're a "Settler." Even in your title (headline??) I had "stability" ringing through my head. It's a lovely thing, especially when there is younger one in the house. And what a settlement you're building, too. Not just the Quinta, but the family and those around you. I love the way you write the layers into your pieces, fleshing out the one idea and giving us such a clear view or your world; it helps me to reflect back on mind. And the first photo with the paint swatches (?) and the oddly - and odd - symmetrical and palindromic graffiti, plus the cable wires and the modern glass doorway. Even the three round utility plugs on the left, I'm in love with it!
