from a weekend away...

 

 

 

 

 

Soon...

 

Yesterday I got on bloglines with the plan to read some blogs. I hadn't visited the first blog that I chose to look at in a while. Actually, I haven't visited many blogs, including my own, in a long time. When the blog opened the post was titled Happy New Year! I was more than 200 posts behind!

I am living a different sort of unblog-cluttered life these days. For the last year I've been waiting to have the desire to paint again. But I don't really have it. I know that the easiest way to get it is to put my butt in the chair and paint. Instead, I am distracted with these two dorks...

They have no manners whatsoever. One leaps up and eats food right off the table and the other is a secret agent sent from Dog Headquarters on a mission to exterminate or at least terrify every cat she can find.

And as there are two perfectly lovely cats living here, she must work diligently night and day and day and night barking and leaping and throwing herself into such a frenzy that her teeth chatter and shebarks so loud I think the roof will blow off the house. All this keeps a girl busy and out of her studio.

when i have time, i make simple pieces like these horn earrings

and these that have beautiful crucifix medals with sari ribbon

and these which are really colorful from where i sit.

but soon, soon, back to a schedule of painting and a store filled with jewelry and wooden fabulous creatures. soon!

 

Walking

 

going home

past my favorite tree

with languid steps in the night

where dreams await.

special people

 

"Special People"
lyics by Beck

Special people all the time
Special people on my mind
Special people brown and white
Special people getting all uptight
Special people kiss my soul
Special people take control
Special people lick the ground
Special people word up and down
Special people squeeze the breeze
Special people slice their knees
Special people soak up fire
Special people climbing higher
Special people create belief
Special people steal some beef
Special people don't need your plans
Special people got recycling cans
Special people got songs to sing
Special people are happening
Special people stopping fast
Special people hauling ass
Special people are so sincere
Special people got special beer
Special people flick the grease
Special people come in peace
Special people will scrimp and save
Special people will never bathe
Special people in hot pursuit
Special people got the boot
Special people sleep in moss
Special people got the sauce
Special people open wide
Special people ain't satisfied

always
