So far Sir...hope the hockey went Your way Sir!

good night all

They are, Sir. More and more.

Our guests flight was delayed.. so rather than 3 she will land about 4:20pm. So we leave slightly later than planned. We want to make sure we are there and waiting for her. She is not a seasoned traveller, actually this is her first flight anywhere. I will go and finish the kitchen floor now.

good night all

People will start to call you poet, you know. Nice work.

Dont be so hard on yourself.. it's there waiting for you.. xoxo

i think maybe we should change the name of this place from the DiC to the Wildebeest Enclosure

This is a wonderful 1:20 Makes me wanna go even more.

Who are we to dispute Mother Nature's complexities? Who are we is the question. Who decides what is natural or normal? Nature put us all here, as we are. That deserves celebration and acceptance. This piece is wonderful, Sir.

Excellent! i like wearing a suit ...

hard work= tired = passed out... i'm not sick

okay, it was more like i passed out.. LOL

mostly all clean ... we've eaten and i had a short nap .. hehe

i have to agree we have all felt this sometime or other. i have and often still do. but then we run into so like minded people who make us feel 'allowed' and accepted. nice poem, Thorn xo

i have a few of her paintings in the house ...she had no training and she asked an artist once what they thought and whether she should take lessons. He said you have a good eye.. and no, no lessons because they just change your style.. i have one on my phone but i cant post it in here for some reason.

okay.. back to work.. see you later !!!

Yes Sir, it is Van Gogh... i have always liked his stuff ... and the bathroom was pale yellow.. so we put this in there. In the other washroom is a painting my mother did of some water lillies

because frankly we didn't want them in here while we are trying to get ready for company.. they likely would have ripped out the exsiting thing and replaced it .. much of the wall with it and this was just simpler. We had them replace the toilet paper holder .. and they painted that to 'match' the pale yellow. except they used beige.. which they tried to tell us would look the same when it dried.. it doesn't.

So, in our bathroom we had a towel rail that is seriously welded to the wall. It is porcelain or something and they do not move. The rail itself was plastic. Well its been in there like 30 years and the plastic perished finally and it broke. Gluing it didnt work. Michael decided that we'd go off to the lumber place (Lowes) and get a piece of dowel to put in there. Armed with measurements we went last night. We found a piece of square cut poplar the right size but much too long - 48in rather than the 24in we needed. As apartment dwellers we don't need a saw, so Michael asked if they'd cut it. "Oh no we can't do that." But you cut wood. "Oh yes, but we cant cut that." Ooookay. Now we had to think about how the heck we could cut that. We do have tools, just no saw. I was sure we had some hacksaw blades. We decided we'd give that a try. We paid for our wood and went home. Michael, using little tiny hacksaw blades did cut through the thing which was only 3/4in square. But now our shorter piece was less flexible than it was in the store and Michael, strong as he is could not get it into the cemented on porcelain holders. We thought about what we could do about this now. I said, what if cut off another 1/4in? Then we could put that into the porcelain devil holder.. stick some glue on the end of the longer piece and put it in. That's what we did...and we now have a towel rail again

i think so.. we are just moving from cold craptaculor weather to wet and slightly warmer craptaculor weather.

hello Fae, i hope you are okay ... we get herons here in the city...just over the road is a protected wild pond, they land there.. But Parker's creek doesn't have to be fenced in.

Foggy, rainy and miserable.. seemly our new normal here. Our poor niece arrives from England tomorrow ... i hope it cheers up by then.

you will do fine, molly.

i just totally understand that ...LOL f'g weather ..lol
