Life Through the Eyes of my Scattered Brian

It's SCHOOL TIME! I have two grandson's heading out to school today.   Caleb 8th grade     DJ Kindergarten   and little Braden who will not start pre school till next yr.   But he had to have his pic made also!   Thanks for stopping in, Pam

Had a great time Saturday doing a photo shoot for a friend, his son was a mess! LOL   This is Jacob. He will be a senior this yr.     Jacob plays in the band. I loved putting him in a cornfield for this shot.   By the end of the day he had me laughing!   Thanks for the laughs Jacob. More to come when the disc is delivered.   Thanks for stopping in, Pam

Good Morning! I worked on a couple of painting projects yesterday. These items I use from time to time as photo props in my photo shoots.   They are awesome sitting out in a field of flowers or weeds and the subject sitting on them.   I got this chair at a yard sale years ago. I have been pleased using this chair with the white splatter of paint on it here and there, but I decided it was time for change.     And now the frame is a bright red.   Next will be to decide what I should use to cover the cushion seat. Black/white, a pattern, solid, blue??? Just not sure yet.   The next paint project was a stool I also use during photo sessions.   I always forget to take a before shot! So I will share a peek at it from one of the photo shoots. This is Abby and she was such a sweetie to work with.   Oh okay, to get on with the stool... this is the before.    ...

I live with pain daily.... I have Fibromyalgia. Right now my everyday pain is under control and I am not flaring... But to help with that I started wearing Hermite (gem stone) on my ankle at the first of May. The other night I purchased these to items, in hopes that it will help to combat pain also.   Hermite a healing stone for pain       Check this out...July has been usual with the temps. Amazing morning.   But even though the temps were so nice when I stepped out the morning had already gotten off on a wrong foot. I was running late.   Then as I was coming down the porch steps something landed on me. I thought it was a spider at first and I started dancing and moving.. It was not a spider, it was one of these.   A Yellow Jacket. And yes, he got me. ZAPPED! Right above the heart. The worry was that I had never been stung by one so I was not sure if I was allergic o...

 Caught this pic of momma deer on the way to Chris' house the day. I saw the baby also but did not get a pic. Isn't it late in the year for fawns to still have their spots?   The baby did.     Love what East Nashville has done with this area at the corner of Riverside and McGavock.   Cool little places to eat and shop.   Sat I worked on Christmas ornaments. Yes, I know it is still 5 months till Christmas... What only 5 months, I really need to get busy!     Went to Cato's Sat.... Got a couple of bohemian hippie type skirts. Love them... The red one was marked down from 24.99 to 11.99 the teal one was 24.99 marked to 17.99.   More clothes! Yay...   Thanks for stopping in, Pam  

Early Friday morning I heard a noise, and you know how your mind will work it into your dream? Can't remember the dream but somehow that noise became money spilling out on the floor.   I WOKE to the sound of soemthing running and this is what I saw....   Apparently a blade fell off and the others chopped it up as then fell. Yep, a fan with no blades is not good at cooling!       Threw blade pieces all over the place.   Even on top of me as I slept. This is what I found on the sheet.   When I bent to start the shower, pieces fell from my hair!   Can't sleep without a fan so last night I put my new one together.   An American Gold Finch. They are so color and pretty.   Clover was born March 17. I have enjoyed watching her turn from the tan sort of color she was to this beautiful chestnut color.   Lenords nose! LOL   Sunday sitting ou...

A few years ago I read the book WICKED. I was totally not impressed. Being a Wizard of Oz fan I felt that it brought hate and darkness to OZ.   But back a few months ago I attended the play with my two sis in laws and two of my nieces.   I loved it. The play was different than the book.   Anyway my niece who is majoring in Drama loves it and has seen it several times.   I wanted to give her something to hang in her new apartment at college this fall....   The starting of Holly's painting.   The most of it. I have more work to do but I think she will love it.   Speaking of Holly I have to share this....   My talented, lovely niece brought me this card back from Fla. I am a bigger size woman so I had to laugh but I had to mess with Holly.   I texted her and wanted to know what she was saying by giving me that card. She text back saying that she meant nothing ...
