Spring fever...

It's spring fever.  
That is what the name of it is.  
And when you've got it, you want - 
oh, you don't quite know what it is you do want, 
but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!

The last of the February Photo a Day Challenge...

 .

 Hello, dear friends.

Are you having a good week?
I truly hope so!

Here are the last of my February Photo a Day
photos.

I'm totally hooked on doing these.
It's given me a good excuse
to take a moment each day
to think about photography.
It's lovely.
I highly recommend it.


For now,
there are these...
Day 29
Something I'm listening to.

From the boy's room,
his "skull bank".

Day 24
Inside my bathroom cabinet.



A love note,
by way of an Oscar Wilde quote.

Phew!
Ron's about halfway through his trip.
And I'm about halfway through
what remains of my sanity.
(Just kidding)
(Sort of)

I'm working on a custom order.
It's such a fun one.
Two nautical-themed items
for a very special lady.

Here's a photo of the work in progress
for one of the pieces.


 I love nautical.
It's always fresh and cheerful.
My wedding was nautical-themed.

Thank you for visiting.
You know you're comments always
bring a smile to my face,
and warmth to my heart.

Much love!

Photo a Day round-up...

.

Hello, dear ones!
How is your week starting off?
I hope today is a beautiful day for you.

I have found that posting my February Photo a Day
on a daily basis
makes my blog feel a tad bit cluttered.

Also, 
it doesn't leave a lot of room
for other posts.

So I've decided to post my Photo a Day pics 
in little groups every few days.
I do love the photo challenges,
but I believe that grouping them together is a better idea.

I hope it will allow more room to breathe...
and think,
and express myself in other ways.

Day 23
My shoes

 Vintage mary janes,
brown fishnets,
rolled levis.

Day 22
Where I work

 Where I do my computer work.
Lots of natural light.
And a tiny hummingbird nest
is currently right in front of my window.

Day 21
A favorite photo of me


Dressed for Halloween
as the Jolly Green Giant.

~

Day 20
Handwriting

 Very old handwriting.
Letha was my great-grandmother.

~

Day 19
Something I hate to do

I despise cleaning the bathrooms.
To make things easier,
I wipe them down every day.


~


Day 18 
Drink

Who's with me?
*wink and clink*

A little news on the homefront:

Ron left yesterday for a 
3 week business trip.
(and he had just returned from a trip to Mexico City)
This is grueling trip for him:
Dubai
then Beijing
and closing out the trip
in D.C..

Too too long,
but I know I shouldn't complain.
Just look at what military families go through,
for instance.

Still,
these next three weeks
will be a bit a challenge.
I have lots of lists
to keep me focused and productive.
And I'm certain the boy will keep me hopping!

I've been slowly and steadily
working on many new Fringe pieces.
I will begin showing them to you soon.

Thank you so much for visiting!
I always get such a kick out your comments...

Much love.
