New Website!!



With the magnificent expertise of my friend Al, I've begun the beginnings of a new website! It'll be beautiful and interactive, with some cool bells n' whistles, etc!!

Stay tuned! I'm so excited to launch it. You'll have to hold your horses though, it'll be a few month until it's up and running!!

Git 'er DONE!

Ugh. Two things that are lingering... and I've been avoiding like the plague!


Taxes...



And this cupboard. (I could barely get the drawers open for this photo!)




One of my favourite thoughts on procrastination....

The good thing about procrastination is that all of a sudden every job you've been putting off suddenly seems important! (My house got a good cleaning tonight!!)

CUPCAKES!



My sister is such an amaaaazing baker!! She spent a large portion of the evening making these for our workmates and for my friend who's having a birthday. They're chocolate cupcakes filled with a delicious chocolate pudding and topped with a semi-sweet white frosting. Yuuuummmmmm!!!!

I was very happy to keep her company... and to lick the bowl!!

The sun shines from within...



This photo is so clever - I wish I could take credit for it!! I don't know who's creation it belongs to, but thank you, none the less! It was nice to have sunshine today, even though it's raining!

April showers bring May flowers.... we must remember this. May will be gorgeous! And then, soon it will be summer, and we'll be complaining that we're too hot!! Whah, whah! We're never happy!

Well, today, this photo makes me very HAPPY!!

Everything Old... Can be Primed and Painted Over Again!

Never a dull day around here! Kerry and I lugged out a few extension cords, a tarp and an electric sander to prime all her old canvases from Art School. She's working on a new series of paintings and rather than buying all new materials, she's being thrifty!! No use leaving all these unwanted art projects to sit around and collect dust!!

It's a gorgeous Spring Day.... no better way to spend it than being outside with my Sis! xx







There were a lot of Personal Portrait assignments. She's very happy to finally get rid of these.

We were laughing because the expression on this one fits perfectly into the situation of having her face sanded off.... right?

Things look cool at night.....

I'm getting an itchy 'shutter release finger' again! It's a good feeling! I've been neglecting my friendly little camera for too long. The good thing is... we've been reunited!



I love the dramatic effect evening light has on ordinary things.



Angles make things more interesting as well.



I took about 20 minutes to finally capture this candle the way I wanted it.



Ha. I'm sure no one thinks this is cool but me. Nerdy stuff.

A First For Everything!


If you are ending up where you want to be, what difference does it make whether you went fast or slow? Or what difference does it make whether it was painful before it got really good? Isn't that the point of free will? You get to choose.

Good morning!!

Today I'm teaching my first Hot Yoga class! It's free, it's to my friends, and it's in a cold room.... doesn't make a difference to me. I want to practice so I can get better. Looking forward to it!

But first..... I've got an 8am dentist appointment..... am I looking forward to that? Hmmm......

Let me see how many cavities I've got and I'll get back to ya.
