Blogging challenge day 5 - There's an intruder in my space!

Today i had a punch list of so many things to do. All those saturday mundane errands...bank, dry cleaning, shopping etc. Then I came home to find the big black dog invading my space! I just cleaned up my 3 season porch and opened it up for the new season. I got a new couch at Ikea and with Baby A's help, put it together. I've deemed it my space and for lack of better term, a woman cave. So, imagine my surprise to find a male in my space on my brand new couch! Nothing is sacred...LOL!

what i did today...

I'm having some fun in the studio today after being down with the 'crud' the entire weekend.  I thought I was going to get so much creating done over the weekend.  I had plans of making this and that only to spend my entire 3 day weekend flat on my back sipping ginger ale and eating saltines!

When I finally became vertical I finished this little project that was on my table.  This is a fun quirky little doll.  I was trying to make a mini dixie so my girls can take her with them to school.  I will be making more and companion winston dolls too!  stay tuned!!

how long has it been?

i can't believe how long it has been since my last post!  i've been slacking off, but not really.  i was teaching in a pre-k class, went on vacation, made it through 4 proms, a high school graduation, got two kids moved into their colleges, painted my kitchen, sewed some cute pillows and made a few paintings.  instead of going into details, i'll just post some pics.
