Many of you who know me realize I have a great passion for my pets. Our vets shake their heads at how old our critters reach before their date with death. A geriatric household is the norm. The cockatiels are all over 20 yrs at this point. The past two dogs, a basset hound andContinue reading “Seizures Weekend with George”

Sleep Deprivation and Demon Dogs
This morning started early due to “Demon Dog” Moby jumping on the bed. 70 lbs of leaping dog is something you can’t miss, especially when it’s on your sided. Nudging, pushing, standing over the top of me staring, stepping all over my legs, the Beast was making his point loud and clear. Hungry! Food please?!Continue reading “Sleep Deprivation and Demon Dogs”
Studio Photos & Card Making: day 2
Since there is often quite a bit of down time waiting for screens or paper to dry, I thought it might be nice for you to see my printmaking space prior to finishing the screen show. The slat wall helps hold many printmaking supplies along with journals and a mish-mash of items. The flat fileContinue reading “Studio Photos & Card Making: day 2”
Creating Cards
I have been looking around the studio in search of cards to sell during the upcoming event in July and discovered only one left. Wow, guess it’s time to get cracking on more! The last set were actually scrounged leftovers from a different project. Too many House 4E prayer flags created on paper so IContinue reading “Creating Cards”
Blowing through April
Here I am at April 25th, feeling like this month has been utterly unpredictable in weather and life. Two days of beautiful sunshine on Friday & Saturday, warm enough to open the sliding glass door. Now we’re back to rainy, windy, dark clouds, sunbreaks with rainbows sort of weather. My grandmother used to complain aboutContinue reading “Blowing through April”
Spring Windowsill
It has been a beautiful spring scene looking out the kitchen window. This image was taken a couple of days ago when it was sunny and more petals were on the plum tree. In the foreground is part of our glass collection with Jerri Bartholomew (birdhouse & fish), Sarah Morrissey( multi-colored abstract) & a DaveContinue reading “Spring Windowsill”
Moby
After some deliberations we have narrowed and changed the name for our new dog. He arrived with the name BEAU, which after lots of thought, sounded too much like NO. The household before that called him UTAH. Ick! So what do we name him? Finalist list included Lionel, Percy, Moby & Odin. Moby won whileContinue reading “Moby”
November Snow
Monday prior to Thanksgiving brought a bit of snow & ice. We didn’t receive much in Albany but here are a couple of photos. Our back yard: George Bird tracks on the railing. Mr. George again! He’s such a cutie and loves snow!
Sunny day and signs of spring!
Sunshine Warmth: 56+ degrees F Blue Sky Is it really January 21???? Today’s weather certainly has been grand. I woke quickly and headed to work for a meeting about this year’s Corvallis Fall Festival poster design. On the drive in sunshine poured through the sky creating lacy shadows from bare deciduous trees on HWY 20.Continue reading “Sunny day and signs of spring!”
Crusty Nose Dog
Do you own a senior dog with a crusty nose? Seems like there are several folks out there searching for information about the cause. We wondered the same thing when our ancient german shorthair pointer came down with it (actually she was around 14.5- 15 years at the time). The vet was consulted, yet heContinue reading “Crusty Nose Dog”
