I see you're here, Live! :)
Have been meaning to ask you how you're feeling this week.

[Jack Deth]

Point Of View





My Pretty One has talents many and diverse
When I was a Kitten, she made a pretty carrier from an ugly purse
That she used on trips to her studio in the city

Where she would create pictures both wonderful and pretty
While I watched perched on her shoulder in quiet repose
As she brushed a spot of color along the side of her nose
With colored sticks and rough paper, she has no peer

Especially when I would add a few strokes with my paw when no one's near
To add some depth to shadows, though I see in Black and White
My Pretty One must secretly approve, for we have never had a fight

Though wet colors both thick and thin are another kettle of fish
For my soft and silky paws do not spread color exactly as I wish
Thankfully, my additions can be fixed, which just adds to My Pretty One's fame
On those occasions, she lets me put my wet paw print underneath her name!

This is so lovely Dita
I'm so jealous you have almost spring. I have to wait a till end of March, at the very least. It will be here before I know it. Then, I will be digging in the dirt, listening and watching the birds prepare for nesting. I can't wait :)

semi live~ just spent a miserable 2 hours doing one little part (the bottom) of the refrigerator.. It was so bad because I ignore it regularly.. all the spills, pile up & turn to thick goo & mix together & dark, hard things stick to it.

I am so domestic!

Feeling a little better but then do too much. The old idea of rest to get well is wise advice. wonder if I will ever follow it before I die?

Hope you are well.. again enjoyed going thru the profile you & Billie did on Mr.Confetti Man.. so sad.

Home tonight. 2nd night in row canceled dinner/movies because I didn't really feel like getting out in this weather. Even though I wouldn't be driving, I still just felt better at home..

Cali is on my lap & both dogs at my feet..will FReep for about an hour & maybe do some pix in between & crash early.

what are you up to this weeken?

not sure how that happened other than I have this fancy schmancy keyboard that when I hit "whatever" it launches into some macros that I have no clue about.

It is the MS 4000 ergonomic one..

Your temp is below zero, Dolly? Brrrrr..... Don't blame you for staying home!!

I chatted with a friend by phone this afternoon who lives some 20 miles out of Chicago. She said their temp is due to get down to 8 tonight... or maybe tomorrow?

I admit our day here was sublimely beautiful. And that is by comparison to weeks of cold... dry, freezing cold... stormy cold... damp (windy) cold. And then, today, a warm-up to such a brilliant blue sky and sun. I wore jeans, stretch top and flannel shirt over. That's it! And I was fine.

It doesn't seem like spring, though. We might finally get some rain this month; we're behind on rainfall.

[GodBlessUSA]

Oh no, below zero, that's way too cold. It's still warm here ;)

This is tomorrow High 22° F |Low 8° F

Sounds like a beautiful day Dita!

[DollyCali]

were you affected at all by the storms?

[DollyCali]

Thanks Jack.. always love your "stuff".. and I like the calico pix.. reminds me of the one in my lap right now!

[DollyCali]

good for you getting some chores/jobs done. I am so far behind but seem to find every excuse imaginable to do something else.

Nice to be home again I'll bet but you do miss kids I am sure also

[DollyCali]

that is a wonderful pix of the goldfinch, at first quick glance i thought it was a pansy..

time to rest the eyes?

[La Enchiladita]

No, the storms we had recently were fairly light in my area... short periods of rain, etcetera. The big news locally yesterday was the several hours long traffic jam on and around the 405 freeway... a huge mess for Friday night rush hour. A crane had fallen across the freeway.
