where have I been?

well... I was TRYING to blog a bit more often than every Friday...sigh... so what is my excure? Well, I am working on some other websites... and with that said, shameless plug for this one and it's sister site and I am still trying to keep the Yahoo eGroup sites up & current (art, book group, RCG, WTI, etc) and since I USUALLY do my web work during lunch at work, I am in arrears. This week has been busy (cold fronts tend to cause that desired effect) so I have been actually working through lunch... SIGH...WHINE... oh well... will keep on keeping on...

Now, TURKEY DAY!! Rebel will be with friends, so I will be skating on the whole ordeal by doing the same... sharing it the joy with friends, and NOT AT OUR HOME!! Hurrah... sorta like a mini vacation. No Cleaning, no preperation, no cooking, no fluffing the pillows, etc... SWEET!! The only thing I will be missing will be my Grandpuppy :-( (whom I left indoors this morning, poor baby.. too cold and windy this morning!).

More later.. for now... work... (beats being unemployed or downsized!)

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
