I’m taking this “NOT ADULTING” to a WHOLE new level… DH is cooking dinner – IF/WHEN he wants to eat; I haven’t done laundry … in a REALLY long time; I am stocking up on stamps and card making supplies – LIKE A BOSS(!!!); I’m keeping the sisters fed and happy. [Here’s Ro, soaking up …
RELIEF! Got through the annual tax date with our favorite accountant. We really cut it down to the wire this year, finishing our sorting and tallying for the 3 businesses/4 jobs just 2 short hours before our appointment (with a 45 minute drive to make!)! YIKES! After that painful deadline, I am so not ‘adulting’ …
Paradise was … well ~ PARADISE! A great sun-filled escape! We arrived back to find our homestead still standing, all two and four-legged family healthy. So, unpacked – but still sporting a bit of sunshine color, it’s time to get back into the grind. While I haven’t fired up my kilns yet, I do have …
But first, special thanks to JP from Tattered Time and her Garden Stake Whimsy Tutorial. I love using a nib pen for drawing on glass! It is so much easier for me to control my lines (vs using a paint brush) – and her recipe for black enamel is well worth the tutorial price. I …
Michigan snowfall has postponed Christmas II (with Dad/et al.) … The predicted snow storm proved to be too much … So, while our tree is ready with gifts waiting, the menu set, the house prepared – we’re on hold, and watch the snow fall … Of course, now I’m doing it from my studio. And, …
I have lots of things going on in the studio. I received a bunch of silicon molds for F-N-F fun … Along with a few new stencils to play with … And, a ‘dirty pour’ kit from UGC. Time to bust out my kitchen torch … DH helped me change the stuck relay in my …
I got home from work Sunday morning (12/31/17) to find my studio furnace had died, literally exploding within itself. Fortunately, the damage was to the furnace only. My studio was a brisk 49 degrees, and the water lines didn’t freeze. Goodbye 2017 and goodbye furnace. As we roll into the 2nd day of 2018, I …
[MmHmm – You know how it goes …] And, all through the house, not a creature was stirring … Except for me, and Ro … Busy week! But, I am prepared! On Tuesday, Rotunda came home. She is TOO FREAKIN’ ADORABLE!!! And, Chloe loves her too! On Thursday, we finished our Christmas shopping. Which …
Spent 3-4 hours this week fighting with my new computer, Windows 10 and technology. Aaarrggh! I now realize nothing is compatible with Windows 10. Previously purchased (expensive) software programs (Corel, Excel, WinZip) need to be upgraded (‘at a discount’ … MY ARSE!), reinstalled, reconfigured … Good Lawdy! But, my computer, my files and my plotter …
