I may have had a very vulnerable moment when I came across a puppy in need of a home. I had picked up the ashes of my big boy on Monday and on Wednesday I saw this cute little guy. He’s finally starting to come out of his shell. (The video seems to mess up in the first few seconds, but resumes after a bit.)
I don’t know what I’m doing with another dog, but for now he’s fun to have around, especially since the potty accidents are at a minimum.

RV Living Is The Life For Me…
May 13, 2012

I had a few before pics on my camera, but they are not loading onto my computer. This is from my phone and will have to do for now.
I spent all weekend (when I wasn’t taking my Grams to the grocery store or having Sunday dinner) working on making it mine.
I tinted most of the windows (I have to purchase more film,) I painted a wall, I took out the love seat, and I’m loading it up with art books and painting supplies.

Lunch Break
April 19, 2012

I started a painting on my lunch, thinking I could work on it more later, but my work area was commandeered early. I think it is the best one I have done all week though.

Breaks
April 18, 2012

Yesterday’s attempt at the white flower. Still not happy, but getting closer. I felt like my brief college nickname, “Puddles,” was close to reinstatement.
The irises are dead, but I have some nonwhite flowers I may try. I may just read art magazines on my breaks though.

Breaks

I really wanted to paint white flowers so when I spotted some of my Grandma’s blooming irises I decided to take one. Then, as I was getting into my car, I spotted her purple ones and thought about the yellow fuzz in the white one. What? I don’t know what it’s called. I took one of them as well.
I spent about 35 minutes on this one. Tomorrow, if they still live, I will try again.

10 Minute Break

I tried a bolt and nut, but my nib was damaged from just throwing it in my bag. I need to come up with a solution for that.

Link Love
Every Sunday I wake up and read Post Secret.
This Sunday the author linked to a blog titled 1000 Awesome Things. The blog is coming to an end, but one of the posts really made my day. Not only does that guy sound like he was a great friend, but thinking about all the wonderful times you shared with someone and being able to smile at their memory is indeed an awesome thing.
