Mark is so excited to see the first frost of the season this morning. I, however, am not. LOL! I will have to rake, shovel, and freeze in general for the next several months until his final return. Bah!

Looks like a mountain or something, huh? It’s a creeping charlie leaf in our backyard. About the size of a clover leaf. I love my camera. 😀

Changed the blog again, I just removed the interior scrollbars. Better?

I will begin painting on cam in about an hour (10AM CST), and will update again when I start! 🙂

Here’s a webcam link to keep an eye on Mount St. Helen. I really hope that folks are moving away from the potential danger there, the last eruption left ash and gook in a 100 mile radius from what I’ve read.

We went to the zoo today, I have some fabulous pics, for now I just want to share one very fun one. Hope it makes you giggle!

This guy came right up and pressed his face into the plexiglass at me! 😀

Have a great night!

I just wanted to pop back in and let you guys know what my plans are for the next few days artwise!

I varnished my tribute to Vermeer (Girl with a Pearl Earring) painting today. Tomorrow I will scan her again and get her ready to list on eBay.

I am also going to finish up Mark’s portrait (tonight or tomorrow), allow that a day to dry, varnish and ATTEMPT to scan it if that’s even possible, it’s a huge piece! I WILL be listing his portrait on eBay as well, and you will understand why once you see the auction.

I am hoping to have both listings up by Monday night/Tuesday morning and will keep you posted of course!

We have a few other things going on Monday thru Wednesday so I am really pushing to get these things finished up before our schedule gets busy.

Once hubby is on his way back to you-know-where, I will begin 2 more commissioned pieces and those will both be viewable on cam! Stay tuned!!

Hope you’re having a great weekend!

Gotta love that ten-second timer!!!

What a great week this has been!!!

No pics for you at the moment, sorry. It’s too early and I know nobody wants to see me in my new fancy Victory North Iraq baseball cap. 😉

I made a “teenie” revision to my blog layout, could you tell? You likey the new style? I just love letting my brain get lost in html code, hehe. I’m really getting the hang of this CSS-thang too, so once I revamp the blog a few more times I’ll be able to dig into the site layout (again, lol) and get it the way I really want it! Chant with me… “PHP! PHP! PHP!” (Erikie you know what I’m talking about!)

I am going to work on my order info page today. I swear. Really I am. I will link you when I’m finished, so no peeking! I’m going to have a very cool surprise for everyone too, just in time for Christmas portrait orders! (Was that enough of a hint?)

Ok enough of the procrastinating, I’ve gotta get on the ball!

HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE! Enjoy!

p.s. I’m still procrastinating, but we’ve been productive! Here’s a piccy for you!!! 😀

Mark spoke to Caitlin’s classroom this afternoon. The kids are so curious!

I have been painting today, too. 😉

Just hanging out today, having a little fun with the sidewalk chalk! Poor Jay, “what do you mean I can’t drive on it, Mom??” hehe! 😉

Today’s photo brought to you by Wahl Clippers and Caitlin’s Outdoor Beauty Shop.

I painted for a while today, he’s getting there!
