Heroes for the Homeless



An auction to benefit Heroes for the Homeless (http://www.heroesforthehomeless.com) will take place during Seattle's Food & Wine experience in October.  This is the wine barrel I painted for the fundraiser.  I used acrylics and Krylon spray paint and just a touch of latex house paint in layers along with some stamping and stencils.

Pearanoia


Somebody is watching me.
I can't get any work done with all this stuff piled on the dining room table.
Wait - what's that noise?
Maybe if I just organize these little piles.
Something just moved in the corner.
Maybe if I walk the dog, I can clear my head,
 then grab something to eat, scan the newspaper, 
run a load of laundry, make a phone call,
move the little piles to the counter, water the plants...
Is somebody there?

Need to get rid of the clutter!!!!!

The Doctor is In


Chance and I have been spending plenty of time together this summer. Diane and Burley join us on Wednesdays for our weekly 'therapy session'.  Trails are nearby and we sometimes make up our own trail system through the pastures, down the lane, around the barn and back to the arena. 
Only one rule: have fun.  Easy.
