early spring

6more weeks of winter
i do know is i fell down the steps this morning flanked by 2 of my dogs, i missed the last step and all i could think is that please god dont let me break anything...
thanking him, i didnt, just bruises...and how pretty that sight must have
but god love chance marie, she was right there licking my tears away,
i just love that furry stinky breath girl.......so the new laptop is here but cannot use it as something has to be updated in our main computer to connect it to the wireless, so maybe tomorrow, but at least we have it...so i am working on my ATCs for a Artfest ATC bookswap i am in and for a 12 days of Easter swap i am in...so i will be arting this weekend...
