Giving Thanks all over the Place!!

My mother in law brought us this beautiful bouquet of leaves from the trees at her house, the colors are so fleeting and so attractive..beautiful!

Here is our little goose playing in the leaves downtown, the one second I could convince her to stay still!
I am so thankful to be here on this planet with all of my family and friends and I am thankful and hopefully more conscious everyday of our ability to start anew, begin again, make a new choice. Each day is truly ours to make decisions and changes for the better, the greater. Love and blessings to all.

Dia De Los Muertos and...

What happened to October? Wow, the last time I posted was for the Equinox. I redid my alter for Day of the Dead and it felt good to remember all my people and to be more conscious of the passing of time.

These roses and quite a few other flowers were thinking it was time to bloom again! Our Indian summer tricked us all!

And a sneak peak of the first finished piece for our upcoming Beyond Printmaking Show at the Raven starting late November. More new work to come.

Happy Equinox

As we move into the next season, my words of advice to my self are Self Care. Wishing good transitions to all.

Sixth Anniversary

Labor Day weekend brought us memories of
six years ago when we tied the knot to the loud chorus of cicadas!


Beautiful flowers from the farmer's market made my day!

Serious.Studio.Cleanup..!!!!

Wow, I really wish I would've taken some "before" pictures, but trust me..it was a mess! I got rid of so many old things, broken things, abandoned projects, 15 year old letters, etcetera etcetera!!
Now you can get a tour of the new and improved studio..looks like there's even some space for a table for Edythe!! (who's favorite thing, of course, is to go into Mama's studio!)

Our House, End of Summer

New projects completed: stairs, water catchment, car port.

Moving On

Just finished my first Larry McMurtry book, and boy was it a biggie. I made it through the 800 or so pages very quickly and enjoyed it quite a bit. The description on the back mentioned "honky tonk glamour" and I was sold!
I think I will continue with McMurtry, he has a million to choose from, what should be next? Perhaps The Last Picture Show.
What have your summer reads been?
