Commissions & Yardwork!
I’ve got so much to do around the house here, I’ve been bad about updating! I’ve been spending a lot of time out in the yard and still have much to do, and I’ll be starting up a couple of commissions here shortly too. I sketched out a new small piece to paint in inks, […]

Productive Day!
This is the back of my studio, which if you didn’t already know was just added on to our house right before winter. I couldn’t get the patio done until spring, and my father in-law helped with some a couple of months ago (see where there’s grass growing around one of them? That was where […]

Afraid of Heights!!
Yep, I am afraid of heights. It all started when I was a kid, a tomboy of course, and I was climbing a giant pine in the front yard. I was going for a birds nest, I wanted to keep the babies as pets. I climbed halfway up the tree, had the nest in my […]

Spring Cleaning!
Meet Muffin, my in-laws baby girl. We’ve been watching her this weekend. Isn’t she a sweetie pie? 🙂 Oh yes! I have to show you a couple of crazy pics I took of Jayden the other day. Caitlin had a “Lights On” program at school, evening activites and the like, and Jayden was being a […]

Evenin’ Folks!
Phew! This day has flown by. Did I accomplish anything? Umm… I MET MY APRIL GOAL! Yeppers, I sure did. I actually hit the mark yesterday, but I wanted to call today the offical day since it is the 1st of May. Now I’m down 30.5 lbs., and have 9.5 more to go for the […]
