O christmas tree ~

o christmas tree...
how lovely are your branches~
growing up i always seem to remember we had a birds nest or two
in the fresh cut trees my dad would lug home..
so my request this year to julie was a tall skinny tree with a birds nest in it and damn if she didnt just find me one!

a sweet little nest, just perfect to add to my collection..

her mom and her always go cut down their trees and
this year

was no exception...
it is sitting in the great room
waiting to be dressed for holiday occasion..
next subject..my hair...
so okay i have been wanting to cut my hair off for
sometime now...i just am so over
trying to grow it and fix it into some hip style
when i would much rather use that hair time in the morning
SLEEPING!
so i went to and did it and gradually it will become
PLATINUM blonde..hopefully by the big day in MARCH!

granted it does make my face look fatter but then i am rather fluffy and rarely miss a dessert, lol..tonight was no exception

it was a darling little slice of peppermint cheesecake..

yummmy...

wreck this journal round robin~

are you all familiar with the wreck this journal ...it is a great way to free your thinking when it comes spontaneous art.....in this round robin we all made our own journals and then added our own prompts on the pages....i have never really made my own journal before soi enlisted help from samantha kira and her
easy peasy journal....anyway i was quite proud
of my journal for a first timer
and the work that the round robiners did was so beautiful!!
have a look see for yourselves!!!










vera is licking the chocolate smudges off the above picture on the right side..
must be some good stuff!

rainy and gloomy and cold~

i had several hours until i need to get back to work and decided to attach a canvas to an old painting i had done a few years ago..
i love getting my hands all covered in paint and such..
especially when you arent in the best of moods which the weather is perfect for....
