Visiting with Mother Nature

I really love spring! It is my favorite season of the year. I especially love it this year! I have missed the birds and the beautiful green leaves. When I see a daffodil, I know spring has arrived.

Visiting with Mother Nature

I am especially tired this evening so my creation will not be much. A lot of times when I am making these little pieces, I am multi-tasking. I never have time just to do ONE thing. Wow, just to do one thing at a time almost seems self indulgent. I am so tired today that I am having trouble thinking of words. Do you ever do that? For me, it is a symptom of sleep deprivation. I have never been a good sleeper. As I get older, my sleeping habits become worse. I do not like to sleep. I want to stay awake all night. I figure some day I will sleep forever, right? I will catch up on whatever I am missing now, then. Sometimes I watch tv while making these little pieces. I only have a handful of shows that I like to watch. But true to form, when something catches my attention, it catches it completely. But there are some commercials on tv that just drive me up the wall. One that I hate is Swiffer!!!! That is just oogey! Showing that old broom in the hot tub or the feather duster and some kind of doll in the attic. Creeeepppyyy! Or a rake and mop in the garage having a spaghetti dinner. Yucko. I wish that cat in the feather duster one would just tear into that old feather duster and rip it to shreds. Okay, 'nuf said.
Here is my completely digital representation of the beautiful full moon I saw a couple of nights ago. There are some things that I love that crop up over and over in these creations...the moon and hearts are the main two. I love the shape of the heart. I do not know why but it suits my tastes right down to the ground.

Tuesday-Visiting with Mother Nature

I have found that the weather in Texas is somewhat conflicted. Sometimes when the calendar reflects that it truly is winter, the weather wants to 'act like' summer. The seasons really are on the verge of a change so I was not very surprised to find that today was one of those conflicted days. While getting ready for work this morning, I could hear a cardinal singing. I had seen a family of robins in the yard just a few days ago. However, when I walked outside to look for Sugarplum (cat), it was snowing. I created this to reflect the hope I have that spring will prevail even though old man winter is trying to hang on for a short while longer.
