Spooky Spirits walking in a Swamp

SPOOKY SPIRITS WALKING IN MY SWAMP With the heavy rains more strange sounds are coming from my Haunted Swamp during the night. The closer Halloween gets the stranger things get!
By the light of a burning torch I went to see what all the noise was about
.... my cats wouln't follow me, they always follow me into the swamp!
The gates to the swamp path stood slightly open..... there standing in the middle of the path was...
A GOURD SWAMP GHOST!

This fellow is now listed on Ebay!

Back again!... yes I know.....

Yes...I have been MIA!
I have been so busy catching up on everything and nothing!
I need to work on my time management skills!
Well I forgot my passwork....lost it, I know I wrote it down.....somewhere?
I hope I can promise to be here more....I PROMISE!

It's hard to believe that summer is almost over! I still have sooo much to do! (catch up)
With summer coming to a close, school starting....everyone runs out of time.
Where does time go? When we were kids summer seemed to last so long. Now it's gone in a blink of a eye! Days are becoming shorter already!

I had some artwork to get done, had a whole year to do it. Well...it's that time management thing...theres always tomorrow. Before you know it tomorrow is here! I did get the two paintings done, yesterday abd today. This is for a auction at my family reunion in PA.

I'm back....and with something new!

Well I'm back! Warning....if you go in for any stomach surgery...do not cough!
Thanks to all of you wonderful people that sent healing thoughts and well wishes!

I got my brain cleared and listed this great Haunted Swamp House on Ebay last night!
I destroyed several gourds cutting just the right wedge in their bottoms to sit on top of the roof!
So.... this Halloween Gourd Head sits ontop ready to welcome you home! He he heeeee!



Lots of hours went into this one....tons of shading along with Spider webs, flying bats and Black Cats!
Take a look inside! There's Dancing Skelly doing his best 'Bone Rattle Dance'!
Here kitty, kitty, kitty...
Don't get too close! I think this guy bites!

I'll be back soon....

Hi everyone!
I'll be back soon! Been busy trying to get things done....making work for myself I think!
Going in for some surgery the 15th... my good ol' Gall bladder is going bad.
I'll be fine...I won't feel a thing.... until I wake up... right?

But I have a ponder this....
(maybe boys don't do this where you live)
Why do the boys today wear their pants big and with their butt/boxer shorts hanging out?
I mean come on they have to walk around with one hand holding their pants up! Not to mention it looks stupid!

Can't wait to be back!

Family ....Wednesday's Ponder This

Yes , yes I was going to do a Ponder this on Mondays....but I was still pondering this, so today will have to do.

I have been wondering about family.
You choose your friends not your family.
I try to accept my family for who they are. I wish they could do the same for me.
Family's are treasure boxes for some, Pandora's box for others.
Can you choose your family? A family of friends?

I have always felt like a stranger in my family. Am I a stranger with genes similar to theirs... or am I a stranger? I have always felt this way, always since I can remember.

I think that maybe, just maybe as I was getting ready to be born that I was so excited that I was jumping up and down and fell into the wrong family.

My family has no idea what I am about. Don't you think that strange? They have no basic concept of my likes, dislikes or talents. But boy oh boy can they gather rumors and lies! What is sad, oh so sad is that they nourish themselves on this and never seek a truth. Some will even walk past me as if I were a stranger, can you believe that!

Are all families like this? Is yours?
So what makes a family? Genes? Can someone be 'born' into the wrong family?

One of my Mothers last words to me... grabbing my hand... Your life has all been a lie. Now what the hell did that mean!?

Hump Day! Best intentions!

Everyday I wake with the best of intentions.....
My intention today? Get my Art/Computer room straightened out. Oh what I mess I have created!
My intentions yesterday? Get pictures taken of completed items... did I get it done? No! Not one!
I am going to do my best today to get something in this room done... I keep getting side tracked! That's why I am on here... got side tracked again!
I think I am going to make lables for EVERYTHING! I put things away and forget where away is!
One thing I have been doing is taking items into the area I take pictures....helps clear my Art room. Oh My do I have alot of completed things! \Part of me says....get it listed. The other voice in my head says...wait until closer to Halloween. OMG! I have a third voice saying...wait! Wait! List! List! List! Don't give it away - give it away and clear this room out. Yes, this voice argues with itself!
OK! OK! I have to go...I must do something in this room......
