Today I kept trying to remember that nursery rhyme about the little crooked man… “and they all lived together in a little crooked house.” My studio qualifies. Like the problem we had with the window, the door, as well, was off kilter and out of alignment. Like the picture window, I decided to straighten it…

Scream
I worked the Scarecrow Contest at the library today. We had 11 entries… this one that Brandon created won him second place! I really liked Megan’s entry of “Dorothy and Toto” as well! But here’s a photo that’ll make you Long Time Readers (and me!) scream with JOY! Yes, the window is IN! It’s dirty,…
Feedback
Not much today… Put some photos on display at American National Bank in Worland, Wyoming. Some of my favorites aren’t there… they SOLD while at Second Street Bakery! And speaking of sold… I can’t seem to keep the local gift store in felted soap… so my stockpile I wanted to create before putting them up…
Ready for Glass
A little adjustment. Some cuts. Some shims. Lots of screws. The frame is in… ready for glass!
Look at the Light
Holy Toledo! It is RAINING out there! It’s rained off and on since yesterday afternoon. There’s snow in the high country, and I wouldn’t be surprised if we had snow in the morning. Wyoming usually smacks you alongside the head as a simple reminder that Winter Is Coming. However, next week it’s supposed to be…
Two Down
While the guys traveled to the mountain to gather the main pasture in preparation for tomorrow’s weaning of our calves, my sister and I spent ALL DAY out in my studio. We hoped to get in three windows. We managed two. Well, one and a half. Nevertheless, it’s great! Here’s the cabinet setup from yesterday……
New Vision
I stare at my studio. I think if I had just worked the same amount of time that I have stood and STARED at that place, I might be done by now! I try to picture it, though… how this cabinet will look here, why I don’t want the stove in the middle of the…
Tomorrow?
I found a plug-in for Photoshop called Wireworm… and if I was smart enough to install it correctly… I could have made this photo much nicer without the power lines! However, I’ve fallen asleep once and my brain just won’t figure out what I need to do to make it work… Enjoy the powerlines! I…
Just Fine
A full day at work, then I had to get some food ready for tomorrow. Thankfully, the girls are pitching in, making cookies and a pasta salad… so it’s not as bad as it could be! 😉 I sure appreciate the help! We saddle at 5:30, but I’ve got to get the food loaded before…
Something
I worked in the studio pretty much all day! You’d think I’d have accomplished an amazing amount, but, as usual, it didn’t work out that way. I spent too much time gathering tools and screws. Definitely one of my pet peeves! I’d had to empty the studio for them to pour the concrete, and I’d…
Old Man
I was expecting to be at home with Victoria and the twins today, but got called to help load the semi that was taking our open cows to the sale. This is the time of year we cull our old cows as well… so those that weren’t pregnant (or “open”), plus the good ol’ girls…
Look At It!
It’s there! The floor is in! No more whining about it… time to put up or shut up! I’d love to spend tomorrow cleaning up around the edges… finishing up the ceiling… putting up backer board and tin so my woodstove can be hauled in… plus getting a start on everything else… but… It’s Cow…
