17 March 2021

 

     I did my five run this morning in freezing rain, sleet, and snow.  I had been under the impression that the weather would be nicer today, but this may have been the worst.

     I went to work afterwards and continued working on masks.  We are almost done.  Children's mittens are next.

     I talked to my parents.  The prison vendor is out of oil paints.  They looked into ordering them from Dick Blick, but they no longer carry oil paints that come in plastic tubes.

     I received my Frida Kahlo and Albrecht Durer books today.

     I have these little bumps on my skin which dermatology at UW Health believes are bacteria which infected my hair follicles when my immune system was down from chemotherapy.  My body, they believe, has not been able to rid them from the hair follicles.

They itch something terrible.  I am taking antibiotics and have multiple topical creams for them, but it is not doing anything.  The last four days or so has been terrible.  I itch so bad I am struggling to sleep.

     I put my sweatshirt over my jacket as a model to paint from.  It kept collapsing so I stacked some books inside of it, and it proved to be a working model, albeit not ideal.

     Still Hunted for Their Pelts continues to progress.
