Happy Birthday Old Guy …
WWU: Lots of feast to famine this weekend. Sunday night started as SRO in my little ER – I don’t think I stopped running (ok, ‘walking briskly’) until 1130-12mn … infant IV’s, conscious sedation for dislocations, cellulitis requiring admission, kidney stones, arrhythmias – along with all the other standards – flu, strep throat, ‘is it …
Workin’ it out …
I’ve got all sorts of mixed media ideas … so now begins the trial phase. Between embossing and painting, metal and glass (stained and fused) … Wow! I’m eager to try my own spin on this print: In the meantime, I decided to frame/hang my tree of life experiment. I plan to make another – …

Evil Strikes Again … (WWU)
While I was trying to get through my weekend at work – doing good deeds, like starting IV’s on septic infants (SUCCESS!) – the dark side struck … Yep – the biological mother rose up from the depths of Hades to mess with me and mine again! While I may be one sarcastic gal – …
Painful – but in a good way …
Walking in a winter wonderland … It snowed most of Tuesday night, but it was so beautiful Wednesday – I couldn’t stay mad … My new fridge arrived on Tuesday – in the middle of multiple power outages/the snow-storm. “OK guys – the kitchen is this way,” as I wielded the flashlight like a crazed …
