Victoria and the twins have arrived for the weekend. I’ve waited too late to access any photos… That leaves you out in the cold! So sorry! But hang in here… tomorrow I’ll share my newest project and moneymaking idea.

Spring and Healing

I can’t even soothe you with a photo, I don’t have access to my camera cable! I guess we’ll all be miserable together… However, maybe this will appeal for…

Wordless Tuesday – “Shadows by the Loading Chute”
I know I’m wrong… but I feel horrible. I’m going to bed, and the Q&A will be tomorrow, I hope that’s OK. I’m very very sorry, but if you heard me cough…
Good Month
It was an aggravating day spent mainly on the computer. Plus I woke up with practically no voice and a ragged cough. Oh, joy. The computer haggle was all about placing an order for large photo prints… which I eventually accomplished. See, March is going to be a Good Month. First of all, we start…
