Card-Mania Continues …
I’ve spent a bit of quality time in my studio, playing with paper. DH and I were talking about working some of the area Farmers Markets this spring/summer … Right now I’m making cards, cards, and more cards … Meanwhile, our hydroponics are still going strong. I’m hoping to get some tomatoes …
Struggle … Yep – that bus is REAL!
So, I’m trying to embrace all things I’m supposed to be embracing. Meanwhile, dark, depressive thoughts keep springing up. I AM OKAY! I’m just trying to figure some sh*t out. I am Ukrainian by birth. Muchly disregarded by the birth mother, but I always felt that pull! However, at this time – it is not …
Snow and Play …
We had our big snow storm. It produced, but nothing overly dramatic. The pups had fun romping through it, though. Meanwhile, we continue to play in the ceramic studio. DH made a Batman mug. It fired okay (with glazes), but we’ve definitely had some better pieces coming out of our kilns. And here is our …

Back On Track …
Lots to share! (Yep, the picture post I talked about…) I’m so excited. Our garden is producing: Oh Summer, I love you!!! We have Cornish chickens (meat chickens) … So, hear me out. I researched and grew into this phase, FOR A WHILE – on my OWN. One …
Oh, I did It Again …
Yep, I sure did. I’m not sure how much mileage I can garnish from 31 years of marriage … BUT, I AM GOING FOR IT!!! (Our anniversary is coming up … 8/11/90! Thirty-one years of wedded bliss! OMGosh!!!) A few weeks ago (the Twin’s birthday), BabyGirl asked about doing ceramics – making a mug, or …
