Gator Boy




This sweet guy, whom Dale named Gator,  was dumped in our neighborhood.  We intended to find him a home. Some neighbors who kept him for a few days kindly offered to help with vet bills to have shots/neutering, etc.  But after keeping him for a few days,  I decided that he was too good a dog to let go of.  The last thing I wanted was another dog.  And it was me that wanted to keep him!  He just fit right in. Soooo, we have four dogs again.  A happy house full.  And some mighty good home security,  to boot!

I am so excited to be taking this on-line class:

Can't wait to get started!

Oops.

Well, I am STILL being negligent. Too many irons in the fire. That combined with the-light-is-on-but-no-one-is-home problems from having fibromyalgia. My symptoms have become so much worse in the last 5 months or so. It's all I can do to get through most days. I need a PA (personal assistant) to help me keep things straight.

Here is some of my art work I would love to sell. The first is a tissue paper floral collage. I'ts a technique I actually figured out all by myself! Much prettier in person than photograph. The second two are mixed media collages. Lots of work, but well worth it. The trouble is, it makes such a mess in the house! But, I am working to get things into my studio and organized. It's taking me forever just because I feel so bad all the time. But I will keep on plugging along.



Here are some of my botanical collages. Also great fun to make!













I also included a few of the gourds I stitch with pine needles from our trees. They also need new homes! The lady in the photo is my friend Cindy. Anyway, back to work for me.
