was a bit of a bully today. Hobbes decided that he would sit on a student’s sketchbook to prevent said child from drawing. 🙂

my mouse holds the air plant
I love air plants. I love finding neat ways of displaying them. Air plants need only to soak in water every two weeks for 20 minutes. I love buying garden art that can double something else, like this cool display. This mouse is above my kitchen sink window. How can dishes be annoying when I’ve…
Origami box holds love
My mom makes origami boxes for a few locally (#buylocal!) owned businesses in Birmingham. Our family has a few boxes each because she always included a small gift, like jewelry, inside a box for birthday gifts. I have my boxes displayed on my shelves. Yesterday my son needed an envelope, I wished him luck getting…
ummm…you have a little husky on your head
how embarrassing :). Do you see that Nala is laughing? I have found it is very important to embrace any signs of humor a dog displays.

Good to draw something everyday…eewwww. I also ordered 1,500 ladybugs…

a treasured gift
I’ve been seeing the same WONDERFUL physical therapist once a week, off & on, for about five years. He is the light at the end of my week. I see him on Friday mornings…he puts my bones back into place. Because my pelvis is broken, my legs are uneven & different muscles will yank bones…
a quill & a rose
While walking around the lake, a few weeks ago, I found the feathered remains of a wild turkey. Nothing left but feathers, must have been a fox that killed it. Â I took the feathers home & sprayed them outside with Lysol & let them dry in the sun. I chose my favorite one & cut…
