Daily Blessings

Blessings that I am thankful for every day:

My home and hearth, and that I am able to share it with my loving family, who hang odd things on it at any given time.

My grandmothers; the wildly brilliant women that came before me, and their families that made them all crazy.


 


 Those men and women that altruistically defend this.

                                                                     Witnessing this.



Growing this.



 




                                                                Good Friends.


 



A magical place filled with warm hearts, bright spirits and great coffee.





              Knowing that this is the worst I have to 
              look forward to when my son gets home
             from school. (Guess the artist gene runs in the family, 'eh?) 
                                                      

Having the ability to do what I love, every day- and have wonderful fans, collectors, galleries, shops and friends that support me in doing it.




            Being on the outside of this gate.

guys that look and talk like this

                                       
                                and this   :o)
      (okay- I know they aren't real- but come on!)





And all of you that follow, fan and tweet the studio and share a glimpse of your world with your comments and blogs.

What are your blessings?


Wishing you all wonderful holiday and a life of blessings.
enjoy each other.
live well.

Icky Flu Friday

The title says it all. It's Friday and I have the flu. ICK!

The Halloween Ornies and goblettes are almost completed- and will be listed- once I regain my brain. I personally can't stand those blog posts that run on and on (and on) and say nothing. So, since I am in a NyQuil haze, I will spare you from the potential hazard of vapid idiocy and make this short and sweet.

Post 98. Big one is coming up- don't forget to follow, tweet and Fanpage to get your entries for the big give away!

Stay well my lovelies!

This side of the tissue is not a fun place to be!

This and that

Photos of the day.
Feel free to click on them to enlarge.

Friends encountered along the way. Excuse the "grainy"- I am still working on the macro settings- with the fear of getting to close and scaring them off.

Ok- you seriously have to laugh at the expression on this one's face... Classic!

A stow-away- I can't figure out if he is happy- or drunk

Another beautiful day. The waters are starting to get choppy as a storm is brewing up for the night. Perfect timing though, because tomorrow it is time to head up river to Clayton. Time to get some work done- It is the annual River Arts and Wildlife Show.
Have a Wonderful Friday!
