Too Much Free Time

This is what happens when I have too much free time on my hands.  Self portraits on the i-phone.  I really like the first one, even though it doesn't really look like me.

Maybe I need to go back to work???

Do you have a good self portrait taken with your phone?

Yep. Every day.

I have spent the entire day in a chair surfing the web. Finding new blogs. Checking out Pinterest. Learning to play Draw Something with the new sis (Kristi). Eating Mexican food. Talking to my gay Boston husbands (Freddy and Warren).


This is the life of someone recovering from knee surgery.

Guess who gets to take her ankle to thigh bandage off tomorrow? Yep. That's me, And that means I get to shower without a trash bag taped around my entire left leg! Think i might need to go to bed so Sunday can come quickly!!

Mom's Day

Happy Mother's Day!

My girls jumped into bed with me this morning. I don't get to enjoy that very often these days, especially with Katie (12 yrs old). My bed did seem a little too big since my boys were not there (Alec spent the night at Trevor's new apartment).

I was supposed to be swimming and BBQing with family today. And see Trevor's apartment. And eat ice cream with my mom. But that all got canceled today. At least canceled for me. My leg and foot swelled up last night, almost as bad as when I first tore my meniscus. I made a tough choice to stay home and let my knee rest. I'm bored. And lonely. But everyone will come home tonight and spend time with me (except that one that has his own apartment). And that will make me smile!

Hope all the mom's out there have a moment to smile and hug their loved ones. Or if you can't be with them today, then take a moment to think of them and smile!

This and that

Hello friends.  Not much to share today. I plan to work on some new canvases tomorrow. Will be posting pictures. So, for those of you who "don't know that I paint", be sure to check back on Friday.

Saw this video on Tara Whitney's blog and fell in love. Checking out i-tunes right now to see if available to purchase. Hope you enjoy!

update: Just bought their EP Continued Silence on i-tunes.

Roar

Just a silly picture to make you smile.

Katie wanted to make Zoe look like a lion. Yes, that is a piece of bread. Gotta love how the brain works on my 12 yr old!

Hope you have a silly moment today that makes you smile!
