Jury Duty

Today I had to go sit in a huge room with dusty rose colored plastic chairs from the late 80's ... they were very comfortable. Maybe they were newer than that, but it is hard to fathom that this exact shade of mauve-rose could have come from this decade. I was not selected, but I did do my duty.

Not much to do while we waited so I sketched the backs of people's heads. I took some watercolor pencils and a notepad thinking I might want to doodle. Tomorrow it is back to pet portrait projects for me. As I left the court house and saw a line of people waiting to get their proof of attendance to take back to their employers I was reminded of how very fortunate I am to be able to work for myself.
