Updates On Several Things!

Took care of an annoying situation with a stray kitten and got in a good walk on a nice day, all in one! I ended up at my parent's old place, which looks dramatically different. I'll have to take pictures next time I go down there. Their dilapidated house was torn down and burned, all that's left is rubble and a few old falling apart outbuildings. Not to mention my sister's sad looking horses and a disgusting hog. Quite depressing, but I'll be going back to look through some stored boxes to see if there's anything worth salvaging. I saw some crocheted blankets and crockware, which might help "un-depress" (did I just get to make up a new word?) me when I get them home and cleaned up to use. Also a slightly damaged exercise bike that was my mom's. Not sure where to put that, but I want it for exercising when the weather is bad outside. On the plus side, my niece's husband Billy was there and we discussed the current economic situation among other...

The Eyes Have It!

Not sure why that title came to mind, unless you take into account that I currently have an eye for the banner and am going to update it with a nicer sketch I did freehand. Lots going on in my life right now...when it rains, it pours! Family needs lots of help, hubby had a big job change. I built a website for a local cafe and have plans to make things representing an online store. More details to follow. Must run and take care of something that's annoying me to no end, but I'll return soon and give details for anyone interested to read them.

Valentine's Day and a New Commission!

I went with Brian to Ophelia's Cup this afternoon. We arrived between lunch and dinner times so we had some coffee and small desserts, then headed to Walmart to do some shopping. We returned for a romantic candlelit dinner and interesting conversation with the newish owner. I asked about the website that was down and she told us that the original owner had to remove it because of a problem with a new server. She seemed eager to get it back online, so I offered to help and received an enthusiastic response. I'll be communicating with her about various aspects such as designs, theme, promotional ideas I have, etc. Stay tuned for more details as they arrive!
