Those who know me, know that I love to create what surrounds me in my home. I have sold a few of my creations, but more than most, I enjoy giving them away to friends and family. Besides the mosaic table, I have numerous items that are of my own imagination. I'll share some more.

This floral arrangement was made with a variety of flowers and yes, weeds. The egg shell colored flowers are made of shaved wood. The blue flowers are silk. I added the greenery, which is dried weeds found in the field by the ocean. The white filling holding up the arrangement is sand and sea shells from the coast of Big Sur.


Thanks for commenting. I had uploaded a water color that wasn't mine. I have so many in my library that I pushed the wrong button. I won't take credit for something that I didn't paint. But I will tell the artist you loved it.........lol. I'll post my art later.

I loaded the wrong pictures...lol. The floral arrangement was correct but the art was incorrect and not mine. I will post my art later. My bad.

Two dogs kept lost boy warm in freezing temperatures
3 hrs ago; [Source] msnNOW.com, updated 24 hours a day.

When Ryle Smith, 6, went missing in the woods near his house near Seneca, Mo., he was lucky enough to have companions who kept him warm as temperatures dropped below freezing: his family's two dogs, Baxter and Bella. A five-hour search began after Ryle went missing, and shortly before 10 p.m., with temperatures already in the low 20s, he was found in a ditch with the two dogs on top of him, sharing their warmth. Ryle said he wasn't scared during the ordeal, just really cold. "Bella was my guard dog, and Baxter was next to me the whole time," he said.

This is just so wonderful! Look at the boxers face, he knows he's bad!

If he had cats, they would have said "screw you kid! It's every kid or cat for themselves!"

Hey, someone is in my spot. I drive up and culprit is getting out of their car.

Me: You are in my parking space.
Her: (she gives this fake innocent look) Oh, this is yours?
Me: Yes.
Her: You know, I didn't think it belonged to anyone, you know.
(at this point I knew she was full of malarchy, so I pressed on)
Me: I guess the big bold letters indicating who the spot belonged to, kind of threw your thinking off, didn't it?
Her: Well you know, people do just throw signs up...I have seen it done.
Me: Yes, You caught me. I snuck in here over night with shovel and a bag of cement and planted a sign just to get one over on the man.
Her: (she does this roll her eyes thing) You never know.
Me: Get out of my parking space.

It's a good thing there are cameras all around. Just in case the dufus comes back and keys my truck.
What a tard.

It was cold the entire day and all I could think about was a nice warm bath, with my rubber duckies and NN perving. Tonight's recipient of my pervalicious nature is Fluffydawg.
Say Hi to Fluffers, everyone!



Life is good.

What the cluck? Chicken-costumed KFC protester pelted with nuggets.
(Source) 4 hrs ago: msnNOW.com, updated 24 hours a day.

Olly Tyler planned to protest KFC for two days, standing outside a Trowbridge, England, store in a giant chicken costume and hoping to raise awareness about the chain's alleged "chicken cruelty." He lasted less than five hours after being repeatedly pelted with chicken wings, nuggets and sauce packets, before finally being tackled by a pair of Colonel Sanders-loving customers.
The 16-year-old spent $962 on his handmade chicken suit (which might actually be the weirdest aspect of this story) and says that because of the chicken-on-chicken violence, he was xxxxxx to abandon his campaign. "I decided not to return the next day," he said. "When you are in a chicken costume, you can't do anything to defend yourself."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So tell me? Why did the chicken cross the road? *giggle*

By the sea, by the sea, by the beautiful sea. It is so easy to lose yourself surrounded by such Awesomeness! *is that a word?* Pull up a space of grass or sit on a boulder and let your mind wander off. Everything will have a new perspective if you do. And even if it doesn't, then you have still spent a wonderful time watching what mother nature created.



Taken at the end of my day. A time when the sun leaves me and I can tuck myself in for the night so that I may replenish my body for tomorrow.

Woman catches husband cheating, poops on floor, police say
[Source] msnNOW.com: 20 hrs ago

Finding your partner sleeping with another person can be an upsetting experience, but there are at least three things you shouldn't do in response: pee on your carpet, poop on the kitchen floor and pull a gun. Brenda Schumann, 51, of Vero Beach, Fla., allegedly managed to do all three when she apparently found her husband cheating on her. Police say Schumann initially pointed a rifle at the two, but when her husband wrestled it away, she urinated on the carpet outside their bedroom, then made a deposit on the kitchen floor. Schumann reportedly told police, "I found him in bed with a naked chick, what was I [supposed] to do?" Not crap on the floor, for one.

Okay, Don't hold back! You know darn well this is funny! Let the jokes begin!

In 2001 I let some one special to me, drive my truck. We were on our way to lunch and as he was driving he nicked a mail box. This caused a small crack on the silver plastic backing on the right side mirror. Of course he apologized and felt bad, but I laughed and said it was ok. It truly didn't bother me to get that first ding on my 3 yr old truck. I don't sweat the small stuff. What it has done for me since that day, is bring back wonderful memories of laughter, love, conversations and being with him. When I look at that small tiny crack, I can see his face.

Still now, in 2013.... that crack can evoke such a grin *giggle*.
Small cracks aren't always a bad thing.
Sometimes a crack is a dimple on the chin, a sly grin, light blue eyes and auburn hair.
