i have been busy

lately w/ projects

i want to show you

n i found sooooo many

goodies yesterday

@ my friends garage sale

...but alas i have to get the pictures together

2 quick things...

what i have been doin this mornin...

 instead of what i ought......

paper beads...my 3rd cup o coffee n sourdough toast

can you see the butterfly in the middle of my pallet

hello...remember me

i can not believe i have been gone for so long....how rude

after all it's not unusual to think 1oo times a day
..."oo i want to blog about this" n my camera literally has 100s of photos i have taken for you

....why then do i go so long between post...hmmmm

last week was my 45th birthday so i had birthday money burning a hole in my pocket n paid an obscene amount for a somerset magazine on blogging

...it did just what i hoped inspired me

....maybe part of the "hold back" has been that my laptop has been out of commission for well over 2 months n i am having to borrow my sweeeeeeeet daughters whenever i want to do anything on line.....since i am sorta like a squirrel running from one shiny nut to another...if i don't have my writing "instrument" at my disposal when the urge hits...it quickly passes n i see something shiny in another part of "the yard"...then it's hard to make myself do it when i do find the computer in my lap....

but i am inspired n feeling very artsy lately n have soooo much to tell you

....hang on a minute...i'll be right back

waiting...

to do list....yesterday n today

what i did yesterday...

it may not look like much but....whew what a mess it was

what i gotta do today....

fold n fold n fold n fold...

i'll let y'all know how it goes :)

reused=reloved

a blog friend wanted to see a picture a what i did w/ the old blue shutters

i got out a a pile a trash from the roadside....

i sold 4 for $10 each @ my annual porch sale...the rest my sweet man screwed them to the porch railin to make a cozy little nook to sit n visit in....the wild wisteria thinks i put it up for it...no matter...we all win

i also thought i'd throw in a pic of a chalkboard i made from a old winda frame...

i have yet to buy chalk for it...it's hard to find white chalk
