Organizing!!!


Image of a "lonely princess" for my June ATC trade.


Acrylic's done during college





A customer asked me to draw a picture of a Sasqwatch eating chocolate drops. He was selling them and calling them Sasqwatch drops. I thought he was kind of cute.
Susan and I were emailing one time and I accidentally signed my name "Crappin Sis" instead of Scrappin Sis. It stuck and I did a cartoon of us from a photo we had taken of us in front of a carnival mirror.

Series of Leeah watching TV








I've been taking care of Leeah a lot more than I have for awhile. I just love to have her here. She's better than a full feature film. I love to watch her grow. I think I've taken thousands of pictures of her already and she's only 19 months.
Here are a few of the "punkin girl". She is watching a few of her favorite "Sprout TV programs" Kipper, The Upside Down show and Clifford the Big Red Dog. Her mom knows all the songs, and I'm beginning to hum them around the house. Hmmmm!
I've spent the past 3 weeks organizing my photographs from a lifetime! And, I spent the past 6 weeks organizing my artwork (as much as I could get on my scanner or take decent shots of with my digital. I'm putting them on CD's so I can pass them around to family. I forgot I did so much. Kind of overwhelming. It's so strange.....it makes me want to be more creative. My ideas are flowing. Here are a few of the oldies but goodies from yesteryear.

Another little artist in our family

Leeah's first drawings. I wonder what she's trying to say

Workin my fingers to the bone!!





































I've spent the last week and a half on the computer downloading my art to put on CD'S. What a job. My legs don't work anymore from sitting too much. Thank goodness for Leeah. She makes me chase her all over the place. I do get my exercise.

I am still here, really I am


Hi everyone, I didn't realize it's been so long since I've posted anything. I've had quite a year. My great granddaughter Leeah is growing like a little weed. I watch her on Mondays and Thursdays. I had to have my hip replaced in Jan. so I wasn't able to pick her up for quite awhile. It broke my heart not to see her. Sooooo I exercised and did what the Docs told me to and I feel great. I wish I'd done it years ago. I am also teaching again and running around like I had good sense. Lovin life for sure!!! Here's the little "Punkin Girl"
