Took more pictures of the bird image today, and of course played with them in Photoshop!

Will the Warrior

This is what happens when Will dresses himself. Shoes (you can’t see them, but they’re there), no socks, no pants, shirt, 2 bibs, my scarf, walking stick, fistful of spoons. And he’s ready to start the day!

Your True Love Is a Scorpio

Why you’ll love a Scorpio: Strong and sexy, Scorpio will overpower you into falling in love (before you even realize it!). You’ll love being swept away by Scorpio – into a world of insane passion. Why a Scorpio will love you: You don’t mind letting your Scorpio take the reigns, as long as you know you’re truly cared for. Loyal and devoted, you would never do anything to set off insanely jealous Scorpio.

Interesting, I’ve fallen hard for a lot of Scorpios, actually I can pretty much tell if someone is a water sign (and usually their specific sign) when I meet them. If I love them instantly they’re a water sign. Chris is an Sag, I usually can’t stand Sags – so it’s very weird that I ended up with one.

LSU Men AND Women in the Final Four!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah!

And the women just played a great game, Will and I were both jumping around yelling!

Last yeat my neighbor died, she was 85 and one of the coolest people I’ve ever met. Her house is now being flipped. Today Will and I went over to peek through the windows. On a back window was a perfect outline of a bird – wings outstretched. I couldn’t get a good picture of it, will try tomorrow. I showed one of our other neighbors and she said it was a dove – one had flown into her window and left the same sort of mark.

So I played with the curve levels in Photoshop and this is what happened. Will print this for my ATC group.

My first piece for “Inspire Me Thursday”

This is a test post from , a fancy photo sharing thing.

So, I’ve decided to start another blog! Why?? No good reason, going to try and make this an “art blog”. We’ll see what happens.
