Mornings...

I begin each day early, 5:30 or so. I think mornings are such nice part and probrably my favorite time in the day. I have my faithful radio and hot cup of coffee and I sit quietly. I take in all the sounds of morning: birds, the train, I appreciate the earth and life around me. I think about those most precious to me. And I exhale because I know that pretty soon the phone will start to ring and the daylight will erase the dawn --- pooh!
Ah! it's 7 so I am off and running...first stop will be a stroll to Fiesta for some eggs, yogurt, and cranberry juice. And Carolyn don't forget the green onions and sourcream to 'dollop' on your turkey chili later when lunchtime hits. In a few hours Ron will send his guys over to rrrrrrrr-rip up the porch carpet......can't wait...! Ba HA HA HA Oh! the plans I have will finally manifest and I will have created the perfect porch ( Gene Wilder in Young Frankenstein--like exclaimations, on that last statement!) I think this blog will nave me realizing how much I enjoy waxing literal verbage.....does that make sense? I hope all of you have an amazing day! Cheers!

Pfffft!!!

I just have to say, I sure appreciated Sunday's weather and great SUNshine!! The key word being:SUN! SO WHERE IS IT NOW! ARGH!!! I like rain. We all need rain. Plants need rain. Animals need rain. BUT For crying outloud: I'm about to step back in time to hire Noah at this point....our front lawn is so saturated, much like my brain is soggy. Resistance is Futile!! I will not bend to mood of gray and wet and wet and grey (how does one spell gre/ay anyway?) I will resist the straightjacket and rubber room in spite of being cooped up....most importantly, this weather is detrimental to our working outdoors on that restaurant mural...vent vent vent!
La la la la la! Guess I'm off to the studio to remove the rest of my stuff...like George Carlin says, 'it's just Stuff!' BUT it's MY stuff, my own personal stuff. The kind of 'stuff' that defines one's own being. 'Stuff" that validates a connection to an inner need for 'stuff'' that says something about me...stuff,stuff,stuff. Ah, who needs it?!! I do Ido Ido....I do have some irrelevant 'stuff' as well..."Hello Dumpster, Take THAT stuff!!"I gotta go! I'm definitely rambling at this point..so long blog people, thanks for visiting!

Having a studio

While I enjoyed the 'idea' about a studio with all my goods in it and having a 'place' to go, in the end I recognized that I just wasn't inspired by the space. I am much more inspired here at the house to be creative. Here,I can open windows--there, I could not. Here, I can control the temp---there I only had central ac....the heat part of that never worked. When I did have the ac blasting cold air in the warm months I was also gifted with the stink of dead things in the attic or vents....never could find the source. I am planning to do alot of painting esp on the front porch....my gracious neighbor Ron has a machine that will allow me to remove the carpet easily so I am very excited! On another importany note, one can't function in a studio without ice cold tequila.....aha! the icebox here at mi casa will do just fine!! Ah the Luxury....windows, trees, cardinals, my "kids", the occasional hawk, cold beer and tequila....Uh-OH!! I feel creativity starting to blossom already....!

salty dawg

I am digging into a can of chicken and dumplings!! OOOOOOOOO-Wee! There's enough salt in here to puff up the smallest garden snake...I just looked over at Rubble and he's snuggled up in my red coat and I think he is mistaking the black fake furry stuff on the collar for his own furry extremity....what ever blows yer dress up -- I guess.

monday monday monday...oy!

haha! Me thinks you are correct!! At the moment words are few and far between where medical professionals might refer to as my brain, otherwise known as noggin . For today it seems heavy and very much like gray matter. Hows that ? :) Anyway I started the move from studio to house and so far, so good! As soon as I'm done moving a booze session most certainly WILL be in order! M: I hope you are feeling better and S: all the kitties say "Meowdie"... and speaking of critters, this a.m. Houston Services came over with noose and cage in hand to remove a confused racoon form next door. Poor Poofy Critter! Hope they release those guys in leiu of destroying them. Hate that!

WOW! my very own BLOG!!
