For Today,

May 11, 2009

Outside my window... It’s a beautiful sunny day.  The climbing rose on my trellis has grown over a foot since winter.  I planted it 3 years ago and it has already covered most of it’s share of the trellis.  The other two roses are not growing quite as fast.

I am thinking off... how I need to get off this computer and go to work on some cards I need to create.

I am thankful for... my internet and fellow transplant friend who I had lost touch with.  We found each other again a few days ago and she sent me a long email today!!!

From the learning rooms... I am really wanting to learn to expand my art to collages and altered art.  I am going to make an ATC today with a couple of images I received for free.  Check back later and see where I got them (maybe you can get 1 or 2 also) and what I came up with.

From the kitchen... I have no idea.  It’s way to early to think of that.  But I have some left over chocolate cake!

I am wearing... A sleeveless cotton knit dress.  I love to wear them when the weather is warm.  They are so much more comfortable than shorts.

I am creating... a card for Flutterby Wednesday and then an ATC.

I am going... to get off this computer and create!

I am reading... Nights of Rain and Stars by Maeve Binchey -- one of my favorite authors.

I am hoping... for good results from my doc appt next week!

I am hearing... Oprah.  She has some very talented people on her show today.

Around the house... are my favorite fur babies, Chloe and Tuxie.

One of my favorite things... my bleeding heart.  No my heart isn’t bleeding.  It’s a plant!

A few plans for the rest of the week: get my giveaways mailed out and gardening!

Here is a picture that I am sharing... I have two today:

My climbing rose.  This is the opposite side from what I see from my window.  It will be full of blooms in a few weeks.  Then I’ll really have a great view outside my window.

 

 

 

 

And this is my beautiful bleeding heart.  Sad to say, but these blossoms will be gone soon.  They are beautiful.
