Summer's Swan Song



Well, dear reader, as I have mentioned before, tomorrow morning marks the end of my lazy summer days, and my return to the rat race of full-time employment. No more doing whatever I want to do ((sigh)). On the other hand, a pay check ((yeah!)) But fear not! I will still be blogging - just not every day.


Today's flea market was rained out, but I did get to spend a little time at my favorite paper crafts store. I got to work on a cute little something...

Can you tell - I colorized the little guy just a bit - using only colored pencil. What a cutie! I tried him with a little crown, but it seemed too much somehow... for my taste, anyway. Plus, I only have so many of those little crowns before I have to head back up to Tinsel Trading! The tip I heard on DIY a few days ago worked great - putting the copies of the photos on watercolor paper. Great idea!

Wishing you a pleasant Sunday summer evening - - -

Just found your blog through Rhea's blog. Love it. Good luck with the working world. It certainly has its ups ($$) and downs(time)(sigh). But we squeeze as much joy into our day as we can. I just wish I had some instant energy! Wish someone would sell that!

have a wonderful day!

Boo Hoo... work! I am sorry you are in need of a job. But if it's counseling you do for that paycheck, I think it is facinating!!! From both sides of the couch. Hope it is rewarding on many levels.
