I’m not an artist nor an illustrator, yes-I know those are synonymous, but I like to think I’m artsy. I enjoy doodling around and digitally scrapbooking and I can craft with the best of them. Toss me some pom poms and tongue depressors, I’ll make you a tea cozy. Well, Sister#1 decided to ‘go mobile’ as in become a mobile groomer. She ordered a grooming trailer and needed graphics for it. She called me. This is the back and what you would see if you were driving behind it;. Email will not be published.

I am the Dance Master! At least that’s what the game tells me. Which makes me feel pretty good even though most of the time I get told that I could do better, or that I need to redeem myself. Then I decided to try something I had heard about….I’m not sure where. DDR! Dance Dance Revolution, or DDR, is a video game. I’ll say it again, it’s a video game. I’ve mentioned DDR to family and acquaintances and I’ve gotten this reaction twice: “What’s DDR? A FIVE YEAR OLD CAN PLAY THIS! In most things I find simi...

Lessons Learned from Gaga. Just that name evokes strong reactions of joy and admiration or equal amounts of eye-rolling disgust. You’ll get more than the first as a response from me concerning this powerful young woman. I don’t always agree with her choices, but bring me somebody that you agree with 100% of the time and I would be suspicious. The meat dress? From an article in the Costco Connection, written by Gary Graff. I’ve seen her perform and break out of character for split seconds. In th...DonR...

Escorted down our 400ft driveway. It happens often. We have a 400ft drive, fenced on both sides. When we drive up or down it, some critter will get in front of our car….and….stay….there. Sigh. Husband#1 shot this video the other day as four adult Gambel Quail and a whole covey of peepers decided to escort him down the drive. Email will not be published.

http://amusedcritic.com/miscellany/our-mountain-walk
I’ve often called it the “cruel mountain.” It’s got a few stiff inclines and it’s fairly depressing to have a 3year old lap you….a couple of times. Also, that asphalt is a lot more slippery than it looks. Still, the scenery is lovely and so it makes for a challenging yet beautiful walk. There is a mountain tower at the top and I suspect the people of the “hood” took it over as a exercise destination. The owners of the mountain don’t seem to mind. Here’s a glamor shot. Here’s a scorpion. I suspect that we...
