MIA, Painting (again), Things You Might No Know

Image
Hi all... I am so sorry, I have been such a bad, ban blogger as of late. Please, over look my tardiness. On Monday, I had a camera ran down my throat and into my gut and then, hoping it was a different camera, who knows, I had one ran the other direction. It was colon check time. Just so happens, it had been three yrs and it was time again, and at the same point my new doc wanted it done to see if I was leaking blood due to the iron issue I had. So, I sort of killed to birds with one (hopfully, two) cameras. Hey, if you can't joke about this crap (lol) what can you joke about.  I react fine with being put down...I mean to sleep, except for the fact, it takes a bit longer to work out of my system than it does most folks. I take longer with that then I do recovery from surgery. Anyway, I had that done at 7:30am Monday, came home, laid down to sleep the crap off, forgot my stay awake pill and ended up sleeping 24 hours. I do get up and go to the bathroom, feed the cats and to get onto...

Art, art and more art, Bobby Ewing, Misty Love and more Art

Hi....found this in my hopper to be posted but I never posted. So, here it is and I hope I am not repeating myself. Mentioned that I find peace when I am painting. So it should not sure you that I have paintings to share.  First.. Then I did this one. I love throwing my head back and looking at the tops of trees. Being in the center of the forest and looking up is great. Not finished painting door stoppers either.  But on Saturday I decided to do some serious painting. Detailed and time consuming. Oh my, I love this one! My friend Pam, who I used to kitty cat sat for went to Kroger the other day and saw Patrick Duffy aka Bobby Ewing! Apparently, he has his own line of bread out so he was promoting that.  Now, check out some Misty love. Then I went back to the craft room and painted this.. I got this idea from a pic I took back in 2010 at  Paris Landing state park. I did not nail it compared to the pic but I like it. Here is the pic I took back then. Have you been in...

More of Oz, In the Tub, and Paints

Wow, Two days in a row! I played around some more with my Oz painting. Notice the purple horse rear? That would be a horse of a different color you have heard talked about! Also, right below the horse is Toto! Darla, this is for you, your wait is over. But look close and you might notice red glitter on the heart clock.  Poppies also have glitter on them. Hard to tell but the star on the wand is glittered, silver glitter.  Might be hard to see in the pics but take a look at Dorothy’s shoes! Plus, I added a vroom for the witch.  I decided to stop before I screw it up. After cleaning and painting some, back was a little angry with me so I decided a hot bath was needed. Settled in the tub, reached for the soap and just as I lifted it, I noticed little things drop into the tub.  Crap, what is that? Then I realized, a bracelet I always wear broke.  But for a second or two I was alarmed!  Since paintings really don’t sale all that great, but I love to paint so I h...

Hey, hey, Hello! It’s me again. No, for some that were wondering I am not giving up blogging, I just have my mind set in so much other stuff.  Taking a break on from cleaning while I have my turmeric and peach hot tea.  Yep, feeling better, at least enough to get some order to the house since it’s been going to pot since June. Lots to get done since it’s been so long. You know I have to wonder about things, people mostly. I got the name of a good handyman from a friend that had used them often. They apparently don’t answer numbers they don’t know, but I have text them twice explaining how I got their name, who I am and what I need. Yet to hear back. Now to locate someone else. Trying to get electric wired to both sheds and wiring in one. The newer one has wiring already. Plus, I was in contact with the guy who did my dirt, yard and etc last yr. First on last week, and since I have had issues with him being here when he says he will, I am also living on to someone else. I need ...

 I bet y’all wonder why I am missing in action!! I am doing better in some areas, numbers are coming up but energy still sucks. I drove  to James and Julie’s for a get together on Sunday. Left here at noon and I left there at five, putting me at home around 620 or so.  I was out of commission all day Monday.  Saw a quote on FB that said something in the context of trying to remember what it is like to live and not just survive.? To, I wonder.  I did muster up energy on Sat. evening to go to dinner with son in law, Amber, DJ and Munchkin Man Beckham.  Oh what a mess this boy is!! Been doing a lot of Lily love. Weather has been bouncing back and forth and with that, she wants mom.  I only took a couple pics at the get together, I just day and visited with folks.  Me, Vic, Julie and Lisa.  I do miss these ladies.  Course James missed having me to pick on and I miss picking back! We had BBQ cooked by one of the guest, and a table full of bak...
