Dreary Day

I did get some painting finished today! Yeah!! Another small metal plate. I think I bought these at Craft Wholesale, along with bigger metal plates and they were very reasonable , but you have to have a resale number to buy from them.
It has snowed off and on today, not much accumulation, although I haven't looked much outside today. Still don't have my desktop PC. Will have to buy a battery.
Is it time to eat yet? Vernon made beef stew.
Talk Later!

I Dislike Winter!

Well today was a lot better, warmer wise.Went to Church, came home and cooked. Sure hope we don't get any of the new "stuff" they are predicting for the first of the week..
My Internet went out. Suddenlink said, my PC wasn't recognizing my router, so couldn't get on. So , I came into my painting room which faces Melinda, and I'm on her wireless! LOL> Shhhhh.
Have to get up early, go to Ashland, for Vernon to get lab work for his appt. on Friday. We've tried going local for the lab work, but then when we get to the Dr. Appt., he hasn't rec'd the lab Fax! Incomputent (sp) people!
Have to find a battery for the PC too, it keeps bringing up that black screen saying, "your battery is getting low".
Hope it isn't icy roads tomorrow.
Talk later!

Sunshine

Today brought out the sun and melted most of the snow on the ground. Vernon working on the genrator, can't get it to run. Would love to have it the next time we get "snow bound".
We finally got the pine tree off the house, still has to be cleaned out of our yard, but at least it is off the house.
Tomorrow starts a new week, and I hope I can be more productive than I've been this week.
Talk later!

Whew!

At last the tree is off the roof of our house! it has snowed off and on all day, just like March weather. I think it is ice now, my daughter came over and said the sidewalk was ice and the cars coming down our little lane are driving really slow!
Next time I'm where I can find one, I'm buying one of those camp stoves, so we can at least cook if our power goes off again, lol.
Wonder what tomorrow will bring? Just think Monday is Groundhog Day!

Power, Power

We had an ice storm, rain, and snow, and our power went off. We have a heating backup with a Buck Stove and natural gas, so we stayed warm, but no way to cook something hot to eat. One can eat sandwitches so long and you want something hot to eat. After the ice storm, a White Pine tree on our neighbors property, fell on our house. I thought something had exploded like a bomb! I was at the computer next to my bedroom which is where it fell, on my bedroom part of the house. Now to get it removed! There are two more big trees like this one next to this one, I sure hope they fall the other way when they fall! In this picture you can see the ice, but the sun came out today a while enough to melt the ice off the room and tree, so will be easier to remove.

ATC

One of the Painting list's I belong to, is having an Artist Trading Card exchange.
The Coordinator says it can be hand painted directly on the card or we can use a print of a painting we have painted, so I'm doing that. I did some watercolor paintings a few years back and I've made prints from those at Office Max. Then I bought the plastic covers that boys use for their baseball collections to put my ATC's in.
I keep a 3 ring notebook with plastic pages in that I store my ATC's in I've received in exchanges. Get it out often and look at them.
Saturday, and my dining room table is "busy".LOL> I'm not cleaning my mess of cards off, 'cause I'll just get back at it on Monday. Sound familiar? Hope so.
Hope everyone can get out to their Worship places tomorrow and have a great DAY!
Talk later!

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.
