Hi everyone. Back again from my travels. Budapest as usual was fabulous, took oodles of photos again. Will try and get some uploaded soon. The name plates I painted for the clinic staff were received very well and I have been asked to do two more. So I must settle back down to my painting again soon. The weather here in UK has been pretty horrible, with more bad weather to come. Budapest was up in the high 90s! Hard to re-adjust. I was bitten by a 'beastie' while I was there, and am having a bad…

Hi again
July has begun and I have been busy researching for my dissertation. At least I was busy doing that until mid-week when my attention was diverted and it was Sunday again before I knew anything about it!
Is it just me or can any of you move mountains on sunny days and just want to hibernate on dark, rainy days?
I hope you are all that bit more creative than me this month. I have managed to help complete 3 jigsaws though! :-)
This image caught my imagination during my research - I pre…

Hi Everyone
I am very tempted to send a message to those on my friends list and say 'Are you ok - why are you soooooo quiet?'. Instead I am doing a blog and would love some feedback when you have a minute.

Have had a bit more time this morning, to browse the site. I guess it's been a busy time for a lot of people, site feels quiet. I know I have been busy but do hope things will settle down next month. I have managed to dabble a little with my glass painting, but feel that everything I do is very amateurish. It doesn't help having all my 'stuff' spread between two locations. Maybe in July and August I can move it all to one place. And it's always the tool or brush that i've left behind, that I wan…

Hello everyone. Just a brief visit. Wont really settle down till my next trip is out of the way. The last couple of months have been very busy. Had a fabulous time on the coach trip to Italy. Didn't want to come home! Have done nothing really arty again for a while, apart from taking hundreds of photos. Did do a couple of pictures when I got back from Scotland, but nothing since. Had my bike stolen from our new premises. Bike not a problem as hubby owns a bike shop!! but my bike was equipped wit…

I am starting to get burned out with painting. I don't want to...but have more failure than success. It's so frustrating to be able to draw anything I want to from my head but painting and color leave me in that state of "I don't know what to do next".
I am working on my illustration career and while there are pencil illustrators, jobs would be limited... my rep says I really need to get the color down.
In art school I did well - but that was oil paints and painting from life which I seem to ha…

Hi
Just a quick note to let you know that I won't be online until next month. I am off for a trip round Southern Ireland (the South West coast at least).
I look forward to our next photography challenge and I will try to share some of the views during my travels.
Have fun!

Hello everyone. Yes it's me. I'm back again, just briefly. Had an absolutely super time in Scotland. Weather was the best. Only one damp day which shrouded Mull in a mist of mystery and intrigue. Another visit is absolutely necessary! Skye was as usual out of this world. We had huge amounts of fun. We did bird watching and boat watching and deer watching and motor bike watching and scenery watching and castle watching and the funniest of all I have proof of my "What does a Scotsman wear under hi…

Another week has whizzed by. Am really shattered. We took possession of the new shop and flat just over a week ago.. Thankfully we have nearly transformed it into how we want it. Been busy knocking down walls, and dry lining a room. Hanging curtains and building units. Painting ceilings and walls and hoovering and hoovering and hoovering. Not getting home until late in the night. Hopefully we can start moving bikes down this week. There are about 150 bikes which we have on display plus all the b…

Hello everyone. Have been off the scene for a while. Last week was so eventful. it left me quite lost for a day or two. We took possession of our new shop and flat on Tuesday. Went down in the evening to have a look and to start the alterations. Returned again the following evening to find that some-one had stolen the roof! Hubby and I pretty dumb struck. Called the police etc. The following day, just before forensics arrive! hubby discovered the answer. It transpires that the previous owners ab…

A strange sort of week. A bit involved earlier in the week with my elderly neighbour. I am determined to get her into as many social groups as I can, so that she is not dependant on me for friendship and doctors visits, etc. I did paint a masterpiece in the end. Well, I think it's a masterpiece! Had a long drive down to Pembrokeshire to look after one of my daughters for the afternoon, while she recovered from a 'endoscopy'. Was very pleased that Mandi joined me in this venture. So nice to have…

[ Draft ]Hello everyone. Just to let you all know that so far I have had a completely non constructive week. Mandi will be pleased because she will know I have been taking things easy. I've spent time in hubbies shop, writing letters and reading. Built a couple of bikes, but basically chilled. Got involved with taking my neighbour to 'deaf club' last night. It's very difficult being a Gemini. One twin is telling me how 'noble' and 'good' I am being by helping some-one with difficulties, and the…

I can't get over having been a child in the south. April is a wonderful month where I grew up, in Texas. Even though where I live now, April arrives with only more of the same, I can't help but feel better just because it's April.
Today we are having snow. erk.
Oh well. Hope for Spring springs eternal.
I was so tired of it being March that I did a little mental leap. Did you notice how early I got out the April Showers email? You thought I was daft, right? I guess I was because I did the same…

Just had a fabulous walk down at Burry Port old harbour. Beautiful day. Not too cold. Knees gave up after an hour! Never mind. The sun and sea and sky and air was good for my soul. (and my dog) (and my elderly neighbour!) Took a few photos, not quite the same views as Mandi's''''(still don't know where this little critter (') fits! The waves were crashing against the cliffs over on the Gower. Fantastic. Will try and upload a photo or two.

Sunday morning. Up late. Weather better to-day. Yesterday was really wet, windy and cold. Still haven't got into anything really 'arty' just recently though I did help the grandchildren with some glass painting on Thursday. I have a feeling that i'm not really going to knuckle down to anything until hubbies shop has been moved, and visitors come and gone etc. But, we'll see.Right now I must put some washing on and then walk my little dog. Back later.

no longer needed or used becoming the unstuck glue
Once I was needed, depended on, to help make sure the day was carried through.

Three essential books
• Frank Herbert's

Narrowing it down - the first four are the best part of the story (imo), the first three are the best of the best, and, the first I guess is where you should start ;) But it isn't my favorite or the most influential... Leto is my favorite character and one hub o…

Easter has come and gone. Quite a cold one for us in the UK. The Eastern side of the country have had it bad. We on the west have had sunshine and cold. Did manage one bikejoring trip yesterday. Absolutely nothing arty over the holiday period. Was on standby for help in hubbys shop. Spent some time with Heather and family over the week-end. Had lots of fun watching several of the group creating music with bottles! Have just spent half an hour browsing all the photos on this site. Now I need to g…

Still didn't do anything arty last week, but I did make my elderly neighbour an Easter card this morning, so I hope that counts. Last night we went for a drive to the Gower penninsula. Very very windy and hailstones. We could see snow on the hilltops at Neath. Cant do much to-day as my right shoulder is ccompletely seized up. Excrutiatingly painful.

It's been a while I know. Last week was not too good so did nothing really constructive. Have to thank Mandi big time, for putting up with me last week while I was down in the doldrums. A few things have been sorted out now, so I can start the climb out from the miseries'! Thanks Mandi. As if you dont have enough to do! Pish. Dissitation easy peasy. I jest. But I know you will manage it okay. Things are going wrong again to-day. I think my dishwasher has decided to pack up. Not good news for me…

I'm working on some mosaic pieces. It seems I can't just work on one at a time; I have to do at least two pieces at a time. I'm not sure why, but it doesn't matter. My mantra is always that if I'm working on ANYthing, it's better than working on absolutely nothing. I already have lots of tiles because I did a bench top for an auction a few years ago and there were lots of leftovers. But I found myself buying a few more (thousand) bits and pieces anyway!

Saturday afternoon. Had a hellish week. Have spent most of it in tears and on pain killers. Have also managed between bouts to do some painting. I finished the name plate for Julius in Budapest. Did another one for a neighbour of mine. Have also just started a 360 degree oil painting of our beautiful coastal area. I know I wont do it justice but it's fun all the same.

So if anyone has any spare limbs they would like to swap!!??

No real updates, except that I helped the grandchildren do some art yesterday, and to-day my daughter Lisa helped me to sort out all of the photos on my computer etc, and she showed me how to put them on this site.

Also drawn up some plans for two new 'sheds'. Also have spent a lot of time on a 'fibro' sight which was a link from one of our 'creative' friends. Thank you. Can't remember your name as fibro fog is ruling at the moment.
