-Poppy woke me up, throwing up :( She seems better now. I love this little pup, she has helped me so much the past couple of years you have no clue. Maybe you do . ;)
-Christmas - if not for the 13 foot abominable snowman on the front lawn and 12' tree, I would't have a clue. It's warm, I was out feeing the birds at 6 in my robe - thats it.
-Our tree is up and a few presents slowly make their way under for Daisy, Scruffy.. none for me as I peek and am famous for it.
-I am looking forward to Christmas dinner. I just want to sit and absorb.
Surrounded by those I love.
-Thinking about the year to come... Ive started a short term goal list, it's things I'm going to do in 2016.. some are easy - try a new Spanish restaurant, take at least 3 craftsy classes (I already signed up for two and am so excited to start!!) Touch an elephant!
- I'm painting an elephant for my moms boyfriend on a old hand saw he gave me - he gave me 2. Last year he gave me chunk of wood he thought was neat, he had sanded it all and asked 'can you paint it for your mom?' On one said I painted a Loon and the other an Elephant - I had no idea he loves Elephants and he wanted to keep it. lol So, this year I decided to paint him one... Oh my gosh! I just did the chalk sketch on the black saw - today I paint- Beyond delighted o paint this, I might not want to give it to him! lol
In researching them, I have fallen in love with the beautiful beasts.
Please don't ever purchase ivory! Elephant, Whale or Narwal!!!
-2016 will be a year to be still. I'm turning IN more to focus on my art.
Plans already made for a visit away.. me and Poppy, a few major art projects that I've been working on - detail is starting to be demanded, drawings taking days instead of hours & I couldn't be more elated.
Understandably, I'm also socializing less. ;) & feeling good about it. lol
This will include Internet interaction and e mail.
Less time sitting here and more standing in front of a canvas.
EVEN Less Television.
Everything for a reason.
2016 is about focusing on all that is good.
Determined to continue to spread TLC & THC. The message anyhow.
I have no clue why I feel compelled to do, what I do - trust me - somedays I question
myself - Really??
I read a quote: 'I whisper to myself, 'what the fuck' at least 20 times a day. ;)
I will be still and listen.
Have Faith

Last years toon but I still like the message:
