Snow Ice and the Jimmy Hoffa Suite

The bad weather is inland but cold here, down to 11 degrees last night. The kids are bored so they are cleaning The Jimmy Hoffa suite (playroom, dark, no windows) and making it into a disco. I am going to sit by the fireplace, warm up and start my painting. Stay warm!

Off to School

Well I am off to school to paint in the special needs class. I looked at the walls yesterday (this room has no windows) and will really have to get creative as it is crammed with desks and shelves.......however this teacher needs and has requested a painting, she needs a "window" so I am thinking of putting her a garden on the wall.............

Sunny Bike Ride!!

I hope M is enjoying the sun and the islands!!! I took advantage of our own nice weather to take my bike out to run an errand. It seemed like anyone who could be out doing something was, taking advantage of 67 degrees, sunny with no wind in January. Seeing the smiles was good karma.

Boring photo.........

I just stuck a Halloween photo up there guys, I have to get a picture taken sometime, maybe my daughter can do it.........

Live Mermaid Sited On Beach!!!!!!!

A beautiful mermaid comes out of the ocean to look for special shells for her crown.....

Earthquake?

Eclipse Lasting 11 minutes

Ok there's the 11 thing again, the longest eclipse since 1992. Someone (not me) is predicting activity (earthquake/sunami) at Yeman, Malaysia & Vietnam. I hope they are wrong. I have candles and prayers going for the people of Haiti.......

Eclipse for 11 minutes............

Ok, someone (not me) is predicting a mess in Yemen and Somali coast........lets see how good he is.

1/11/2010 Praying for a Good Day!!

I have a "thing" for the number 11, so lets pray its a good day all around, mercury get out of my way and lets move forward.

Play with Lighting

My friends know this lady, but I have pink lights on my hibiscus tree and they were glittering off her so pretty, but I am no photographer so I am not sure how to get them to show. I just like having her in my studio/office.

Things We Find

I feel like objects are sometimes just placed in our path. I was fishing at night when my lantern went out. I looked at the ocean and said to my Dad, who has passed, how I wish he were there. When I returned, this shell was in front of my chair & behind the fishing pole in its stand. It was as if someone had laid it there, the tide was not washing up that far! I found the "egg" stone on New Years Eve, I had been going in and out the back to grill, and the stone was there right where I had been standing. It is layered with clear and white striations through it, most likely a nice piece of quartz crystal!

Mercury Retrograde, Enough Already!

I will be glad when this retrograde is over. I have had it with wishy washy people who waste my time. Usually I can push right through a MR, but this one has most people in its grasps who are behaving with sheep mentality or wallowing in depression.

Full Moon Sneaks a Peek

The full moon/blue moon peeks out on New Years eve over the Atlantic. It looks like an Overseeing Eye to me. Happy New Year.
