Have you ever had so much good going on in your life that it scared you? Things in my life seem to just keep getting better and better.
For quite a while I’ve been able to find the good in almost any situation. Even the worst of times, I could find some small snippet of [...]
I have been out of pocket for a while. It feels good to be back and blogging again!
Mister had surgery so I’ve been helping him out. Then last weekend we went to Ft. Worth to see my kids. It was a wonderful visit.
This picture is of us at Billy Bob’s. It’s a dance hall at [...]
My friend Denise has started putting her art on Etsy. I love this woman and I love her art!
She’s a watercolor genius and a photographer extraordinaire. The image here is a water color that she scanned and then enhanced digitally.
Here is what she wrote about this piece, entitled “I Broke Free”

Please indulge me while I brag and wax nostalgic. There is a new series on TruTV called Black Gold. It’s all about oil drilling rigs and it’s filmed in my hometown, Midland, TX.

I nearly always carry my camera with me. I am ready to snap anything that might be interesting to share in my blog, or use as an image in art. But, you know what? I hardly ever actually get it out and use it.
Partly because I’m not a good enough photographer to catch things quickly [...]

My friend Lotus posted some art that her son did on her blog. He apparently had seen her visiting my blog, so that’s what he drew when he drew his mom at the computer. How cool is this???
His name is Alex. Don’t you just love this? In case you can’t read the small print on [...]
