Some of the things I have been working on. I entered all the info about them, but it is not showing up. You can see I put my Teesha stamps to work!

Postcards from the plague house

I have been sick the last couple of days, so have accomplished very little. I have, in my periods of being upright, been playing with microscope slides, alcohol inks, and my pastels. I also received rubber stamps from Teesha Moore. Her stamps are really cool and I am enjoying them a lot.

Sunday Scribblings: Miscellaneous

This is a word that strikes fear into me.
Why? I can spell it.
Clutter. I am drowning in it. I am a fairly organized person. I love filing systems. I love boxes I can put things in (and never find again). But I am overwhelmed by stuff that does not fit [...]
Post-endo

I went south a couple of days ago, to Victoria. The reason for the trip was to see a new endocrinologist. This is always a rather stressful time for me, as I do not know what to expect. Sometimes they are good, and more often they are not. I guess the [...]

I had to use that word. John found it and for some reason read it out to me. Of course, I had just shown him a top I bought that was too tight and low cut but I plan to layer. That might have brought on his new word.

Drawing 101

I can draw. No, I can’t. yes, I can. No, I can’t.

(It’s snowing, it’s snowing, it’s snowing!!!!)

Yeah, it was a bit windy…

I went down to Goose Spit after an aborted attempt to go for a walk downtown. It was too cold and windy! It was great for what I think is wind boarding. The spit provided shallow, protected water, with a lot of wind!
