Family Fun

Tessa , my youngest came for a visit yesterday.
Little Scott has milk bumps. But is growing like a weed.
Cullen is so happy with his new little brother.

Cheep E has desided to go into the hair grooming business.

S/He thought Tessa's hair looked like a bird nest.
So rearrangement was necessary.

This is Crash my cat and cheep E the chicken, Neither know they are not human.

Have a wonderful day and remember to laugh and play.

Lessons learned

I am normally a person with no patients. I can not even spell the word right. "Pashents". LOL. Since starting this book Wreck this journal, I have learned some.

I started back in July and I am still working on this book. Both wrecking and recreating. This stone wall was the biggest challenge for me. Sure it was simple enough. But time consuming. I did a few rows and put it up. And continued that way. I normally need thing done in a day or 2. This took a couple of weeks off and on. Where the sun set page took an hour at the most. And I have learned. Some people took this book for a joy ride like a roller coaster.
The wreckage was fun and powerful. Where Sure I spilled the coffee on this page. But I was not satisfied with that. I had to go back and add a table cloth then go back add coffee grounds.

Then I used Mod podge to seal it. And look no patients. I closed the book too soon and had to rip it apart. So Yea. More wreckage.

My fire page before and after. Yes I added bandages.

This page is from pouring honey on it in last weeks video.
I added toilet paper to the honey then painted.

So for me I wreck and re Wreck.
Please visit Wrecking sisters re-united to see all the fun others are having this week.

Have a wonderful day and remember to laugh and play.

THANKFUL THURSDAY Rescue

What an amazing coincidence
Ires has the rescue theme for this week.
And look what happened in the last half hour.
I get a call with a sad voice on the other end.
I know from the tone something bad has happened.

My daughter Amy said. You will not believe what this awful person did tonight.

My mind went wild with what happened. Are you ok.
She said" A truck driver told her some one was dumping in there dumpster at the truck stop".
So thinking it was trash she did not worry to much.
But she made sure to take the trash out as she left work.
And this was the thing she found.

This little guy is maybe 4-5 weeks. And hungry.

She brought him buy and crash made him feel welcome

Out went the daddy tung and took away this little guys fears.
He started eating some watered cat food.
And I gave her some dawn blue dish washing liquid.
This is a safe way to kill fleas and ticks with out harm.
Now my grandson will have a new kitty and he will not be crushed in the trash truck tomorrow.

I am so thankful my love for animals rubbed off on my kids.
They both rescue animals and people.
I am very blessed to see this.

Have a wonderful day and remember to laugh and play.

Monday musings

Here is the newest Pick of cheep E.
And that is not my hand spoiling the chic. LOL

It looks blurry I do not know if it is blogger or not. Click to enlarge it is clear that way.

Here is my latests cartoon art . I call it my wonderland.
I did a 8x12, it is my first of this size.
I know I am not an artist but this is so much fun.
I would like to take an art class.
This is good therapy. For happiness.

I used sand and water color paint for the waterfall.

Art Journal

Today the fun will start on my New blog
Wrecking sister Re-united..
Where we can all continue creative art journaling.

I am thrilled to be able to be part of such a wonderful group of people. Sharing creativity and fun.

As many of you know I started an art journal called Hope.
The night the blog was opened I created this page I call her Sweet Hope.
She represents my inner child.
I am so proud of her. I have never painted a face with water colors before her.

This one I call my guardian of inner peace

The well of wisdomAnd this is Santa Clauses chest.
In my Wreck This journal.

I also added a couple of critters to my chew this page. Please feel free to post your artistic adventures or visit others
On Wrecking sisters reunited.

Have a wonderful day and remember to laugh and play.

Who is the “you” you wish to be?

This is the question Jamie asks today.

Wow! I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up!

I know I am now 49 and still feel that I am the same person I was at age 16.
Only much wiser.
Some times.
To me life is like changing shoes.
Shoes are responsibility's
Work , play, MOM, Now Grand mom.
At this time I just want to be barefoot and free to play.

Free of responsibility's
Free to create a positive happy life.
Free to shed the ties that bind me.
Free to travel and dream.
I assume I should buy a lottery ticket to pay for my fantasy.
For now I am happy just being me.

Have a wonderful day and remember to laugh and play.

This and that

Cheep E is growing up. Now 3 weeks old and full of spunk.
This little bird thinks, it is a person.
Jeremy put the hamster bottle in, and taught it to drink that way .

The feathers are starting to unroll and remind me of my friends game bird.
So we may not have a chicken. Not sure yet, need a few more weeks to see the development.
My art journal for last night includes a photo of my new swing. Hubby spray painted the green for me. It will continue to evolve as time goes on. But for now, I have a working dream swing. Yea!

I am so happy with my new found love, of multi media art Journaling

This has released my inner child of creativity.
I am learning , if I don't like the results add another layer till it make me happy.
Art is not perfect. Like life there are mistakes and continued learning.
The whole point is to try.
There are many people more gifted.

It is more of a feeling . pleasure is the result.
I was never one to like abstract art. I need a form to go with it. With layering you can learn to love abstract. It is the background for me. Then add structure.
I do not know why I am not happy with out the structure.
It is my inner need for detail's.
I think this is why I love architecture. Old Churches are full of detail.
Nature is full of detail also. It is forever changing.
That is why I could sit in my garden in the past and never finish looking at every detail or just let my mind wonder. As I recently learned . I have never fully looked at every detail out side. There are things hiding every where.
I am continuing my journey with 3 books I just ordered.

Jamie will be doing another book blog Using the book The Joy Diet : 10 Daily Practices for a Happier Life
this book.is not like what we did with Wreck This Journal
by Keri Smith
. This book is not artistic. At first, I did not see how this would be fun. I researched it. I felt I would have to deal with negativity that I have buried. But maybe if I pull them out and deal with them . I will put them to rest forever. So I am in.
Here are the other 2 books I bought.
Book # 2 Art Journals and Creative Healing: Restoring the Spirit Through Self-Expression: by Sharon Soneff

Book # 3"Living Out Loud" by Keri Smith I hope this is as much fun as her other book. Wreck This Journal


I bought both of these in hope of learning more from creative art.
I feel they may feed my inner child.

I have opened a new blog
Wrecking Sisters united.

With this blog I hope to keep the fun of sharing creativity alive for me and any one who wants to join me.

Have a wonderful day and remember to laugh and play.

A new photo of Jozlyn just came in from the cell phone.
