Friday the 13th !!

There are only two “Friday the 13th” in the year 2007.. First one was in April, and now today. I usually take them off & stay home, make art, lunch with my child. Not today (boo hoo) But, ever mindful of compromise, that is what I did. I came in to work this morning and spent some time mapping out areas for our ongoing search for Carolyn B. Several of us, in several cars, are setting out tomorrow morning in the wee dark hours and taking different back county roads and working our way back to the starting point (Lipan, TX). Prayers are welcome. Also got all my paperwork finished to give to the blood suckers known as the IRS (except Energy... Energy just works there, not sucking blood...LMAO) for my amended return. ARGHHHH Now, only 3 more hour to go in the work-a-day world...then home to bathe the babies, dinner w/my child & possible pagan from Wednesday night's dinner. And early night, since we'll be leaving around 4am. Rebel is bringing Bud... too bad Bud is not a "Search N Rescue" doggy.

Violet

the song was by Courtney Love's band Hole... Violet... I have not idea why it is called violet unless it is just one of the random words from the opening lyrics... oh well! So, update... I currently have 143 cards for sale @ the Bastrop Producers Market... I know because I had to sticker them with my Vendor number yesterday... 27 of those are NEW ADDITIONS that I made yesterday before going out. Lots of fun!! A quiet week is planned... just a board meeting in N Austin at a coffee shop...how could I NOT go?! And Janee Ward's "Stepping Through the Doorway" creativity workshop @ Pine Crone Labyrinth Retreat this Saturday & Sunday. I am expecting "The Toy" to arrive Wednesday so I am pretty sure what I will be doing all of Thursday & Friday evenings :-) Stay tuned.................

The Trip That Wasn't

We were taking 32 days to go to Portland (via family and friends in Arkansas, Oklahoma, Portland, New Mexico & Texas) and back, seeing several state and national parks (including Great Basin, Crater Lake, Badlands, Mount Rushmore, Yosemite, Yellowstone, Wind Cave, and Palo Duro Canyon). On Day 1, a mere eleven miles south of the Arkansas state line, our truck broke down. We called Good Sam & they called Michael from A to Z Towing.  We spent most of 7/15 at Firestone. At 2:30pm they had a verdict, which was that the repairs were outside their scope of practice. We called Good Sam & they again called Michael from A to Z Towing, who towed us to the shop attached to the wrecker company, EZ Automotive. As the shop was closed until Monday, Michael called the owner. After explaining our dilemma permission was given to bring our camper as well as the truck. Michael set our camper down in the parking lot and ran an extension cord so we had power. We also had running water. Thankfull
