TGIF

TGIF not really! Fridays come around too soon anymore. I've been working on
note cards I already have printed up from my watercolors and I'm going to
exhibit them in our Art Gallery in Paintsville. Hope some of them sell.

Wally World

I ventured outside today for a trip to Wal Mart. We were out of Cat food! Can't have that! The snow is about gone, it got up to 46 degrees I believe. I put on so many layers of clothes on and once you get into the store , you are burning up. It was much colder when I left home! Can't win!
My cat food trip turned into a $131.00 tab! If you're like me, you can think of all kinds of items you "need" once you get in the store. I take so many Vitimans, that's what runs my bill up, and sometimes I think I'm absolutely "crazy". I never saw so many people shopping, had to park far away, stand in line for eons of time. Every checkout had long rows of people with carts full and running over, I finally found one that said, "10 item or less" and went through, if she had said anything to me about having more than 10 items, I was ready with an answer! lo BTW they didn't have any checkers in the second level of checkouts, you know the ones nearest the outside Isle to go out the door? Of course my list also included some craft items, what is left to buy in crafts.
Talk later!

Bird Watching

I finally caught my furbabies watching the birds at the feeder in the back yard. Do you know how hard it is to get a picture of a cat? Very hard! I just got one pic and Chloe came running to see what I had in my hand! Chloe is on the left side and Misty Bleu on the right. We get a lot of enjoyment out of them. Chloe is always in to something and Misty Bleu is a laid back cat, nothing alarms her! lol. She is my "shelter" cat. We still have some snow on the ground. AWWW Winter! It does bring the redbirds out to feed and they are so beautiful!

Memory Boxes

I worked on the four memory boxes today. I still have to varnish them. I always take pictures of them before varnishing to cut down on the glare. If you want to see the latest ones they are in my Picture Trail, Memory Boxes album.

It has been in the 20's today, cold, had a few snow showers this AM but soon sunny.
I'll put one of the boxes that I decopauged the print from one of my paintings, up on this site.

Monday 19

Well snow has come to Tomahawk! We have about 2 inches of snow, and the red birds
are feeding at the bird feeder. We have chickadees, doves, wrens, bluejays, bluebirds. I so enjoy watching them. My two cats, love to sit at the patio door and watch the birds, I can imagine what would happen if they were out, but alas, they are house cats. Chloe is my sable Siamese and Misty Bleu is the shelter cat, and is supposed to be a Blue Siamese, which she looks like one. Chloe is the youngest but she is the Boss! She love to "jump rope" with her wand toy, but when Misty shows up, she grabs it and drags it to another room. Aren't pets wonderful?
I've been working on 4 Memory Boxes today. Painted one and am decopauging the other three. These four will fit in a priority Mailing Box.

Sunday 18th

I was "under the weather" today, stayed in bed most of the day. At my age I think I can do that! ha. The roads were icy this morning and when DH got back from Church this evening he said it was snowing, maybe we will have Winter here in Tomahawk, yet.
So far just a dusting of snow.
Today starts another week, so hope I can get to painting something this week.
