Yes, It's True, I Broke Into My Christmas Presents Early...

I figured out what was under the tree and broke into my gift card. An adventure to Messy Missy's to paint, kept me out of the house, away from the hubby...I got a free fee (it was a limited special!!) and I painted a winter candy jar (his hat comes off!) and bought a bag! This way I only have to pay 1/2 fees if I bring my bag in, so I thought that was a good deal- Still have some change on my gift card so I will be going back again soon. It's always a nice stress relief to sit and paint for a while....

Who's Hiding?

Wendell loves rugs. Any excuse to crawl under one and he is happy. Usually we just get a tail shot, but this is a rare one when we get to see his face, too. He had a ball for about 15 minutes until he moved on to his next distraction. Wennie is a funny boy..

Funky Weather

The rain turned to ice, the ice turned to snow, the green grass is gone, and now everything is melting once again.....The circle of weather..........sounds like something out of Lion King...

Rainy Days

The snow is almost gone here. Melted away with the help of a lot of rain that we have gotten the last 24 hours. We had a white Christmas, but right now, we are back to green grass. Give it a minute, it's Iowa, I'm sure it will change again soon.....

James T. Kirk

James T Kirk left a present under the tree and I'm not too happy about waiting for that either....In the mean time.........AAAAh....(of course the real guy is, what, 77, but I never said I was gaga for him, just JTK)

More SNOW

Santa is Coming...

I broke down and asked for a new camera for Christmas...Of course, romantic hubby that he is, he went out and looked for the ideal one and got it for me...HA....I picked it out, asked if I could get it, and had to go back out in subzero weather to get it....but it's orange, ok, copper, but I think it's orange. They figure my old camera is probably about 5 years old....I would've waited to get one, but my memory card is shot, so I thought it was a good chance to update the equipment and not feel too guilty. The lady at the store tried to sell me a printer/scanner/etc that would have probably been a good idea, the price was reasonable, but I didn't really need it. If I want a zillion prints of the cats I can just go to WalMart and print them off...Works for me...........Meanwhile, the camera is under the tree and I am stuck waiting........Something I definitely don't do well this time of year............................
