Alternate US
Alternate US: Potential Succession of West Virginia Poll
So, below is a map of some of the current countries in this project, but I'm considering a potential succession of West Virginia and some of it´s surrounding areas (mainly western Pennsylvania and part of Ohio from the Republic of Ohio, and a portion of Virginia and Kentucky from Appalachia).
If Ohio were to be thrown into the succession, Illinois might join into a country with northern Missouri and Iowa. Not so sure about Indiana at the moment.
PLS ONLY ANSWER THIS POLL if you've lived in areas from the Republic of Ohio or Appalachia (outlined and labeled below), OR have referenced someone else who has, OR have lived anywhere in Pennsylvania, OR have studied/learned enough about the area that you feel at least semi-confident in making a decision, thank ye kindly!
Origami cranes & bunny faces
So, I’ve decided to make origami cranes & bunny faces whenever I get stressed (and have the paper) - which I started Wednesday (5.11.2016) night. It came as an after thought to randomly leave them at various places to share with whoever wants them and see what sort of attention they get (if any).
I wrote my twitter ( twitter.com/Raven_A_Moreno ) & tumblr addresses on the underside of their wings (for the cranes) - behind the bunny faces have my twitter name. If you’ve come across them and are reading this then it has (positively?) piqued your curiosity. Should you have the time and ability (and desire), please, take a photo of the one you found; post it to your (twitter, tumblr or other) account with a link to one of my accounts...
P.s. I hope finding one (or more) of my origami things will help lighten your day.
P.p.s. [Edited June 9, 2016] You know I’m not exactly happy with my name being the hashtag... So, any of you lovely people out there have any suggestions on what hashtag should go with this?
Weather...
It’s currently 90 degrees fehrenheit with 56% humidity... gross.
Plus, I don’t have an air conditioner unit. So, I’m uncomfortable and my crafts & painting aren’t drying as fast as they should. Looks like I’ll have to hold off working on them til tonight or tomorrw. :/

This sort of looks ominous doesn’t it? Almost like something out of a sci-fi or fantasy movie. I love how most of my photos of this sunset came out.

My painting on my bag
I just realized that I never posted my completed painting that I did on my Whole Foods bag. I finished it around May of this year.

I just thought this looked lovely. I had to take a picture of it so I could eventually share it with you all.
