Are we ready for EAster yet?



the bunny was a real find at Wegman's [cheep and cute] . The egg looks like it is quilted, but really isn'. Lots of straight pins and many pieces of fabric and lots of patience!


some of my flowers are blooming...I know I planted a few more bulbs in there last year, here's to hoping they decide to come join us in

this past weekend


going for a test ride on Lake Anna in the boat we were looking at [mine will be yellow trim]
and very first boatride and life vest breakin for the Thrash Man...he is turning into a real water doggie! Jet ski will be next..and you should see the goggles I got for him [called Doggles]

hard to see, but just to the right of the pine and in the branches, is a big old snake...jake, aka mr no shoulders. needless to say i was watching him the whole time i was putting the jetski cover on !.....

Viper Red and ready to go


Here it is in it's new home .. Picking it up and checking it out

Can't wait to get the first service out of the way and wring this one out full throttle !

ok, ok...isn't he really cute...



Moments like these are exactly why I bought my new point and shoot digital camera a month or so back. I can't help myself...he is so cute and snuggly and silly. Today he didn't get to nap all day, so he thought he would crash out on his favorite couch.

What to do inColorado Springs...





When they book you out of Dulles at 6 AM in the morning and you get to your destination at 9 AM ? You go to your local office, look at e mails, and then go site seeing! and Shopping! I don't have my meeting till tomorrow, so i spent the day driving thru the Garden of the Gods, driving thru Manitou Springs and just enjoying the lovely weather. So after I get some groceries in the tummy, i will do some really work again and get ready for my meetings in the AM. and it is HARD to stay on your diet/eating right when you travel. Let's see what I can find tonight....mmmmmm steak is sounding good, and there is a Bennigan's right next door, as well as a Macaroni Grill. Fire Grilled Sirlon or Arugula Steak Salad ? Decisions , decisions

the 'Studio'



the font of my creativity.....it actually looks neater in the pictures than it does when i am sitting there and creating. But I hate messyness and i spend as much time putting stuff away, organizing and throwing stuff out as i do making stuff. My little laptop looks lost on the desk, but as slow as it is, I LOVE my little 12" MAC. It's like an old friend, always there to open a window on the world of art, messages and anything else I dare to search for.

Tiles for sale !




The butterfly is for a friend's pal, who is giving it to her daughter in law. the in Law's husband is in Iraq, so she is trying to give the daughter in law something butterfly, which she likes, every month to keep her spirits up. How can I charge someone for that sentiment?

Yes, Ruby IS a cheap date!


How do I know? Well, back in the day, for $1.25, you could get a Nathans hot dog and a soda. Then , for $2.00 , split 3 ways, a side order of fries. Yumm..delish! can't get any better than that! Well some of scooter's co workers , as well as Ruby, still enjoy that mystery meat hot dog! And all the condiments you can heap on the damn thing.

Scooter hasn't met Ruby yet, or her friends, but what a culture clash when Scooter does. BTW, y'all like Scooter's new jet ski on the previous posts....?

New tiles and stuff





I liked the Gandhi saying so much I just had to make it into a sign for my office. It will remind me to take action to make changes, rather than let the things overwhelm me to the point of inaction.....

the Video Tele Conference from Hades...

But Hades was never as cold as I was sitting in this icebox for 4 hrs....urg. But I indulged my preoccupation for drawing chairs from where ever i happen to be 'idling' - waiting rooms, airports, doctor's offices,...and now the conference room at Missile Defense Agency's Headquarters.....
