Hello and welcome to T stands for Tuesday…thought I should introduce myself…LOL…just foolin’…
I missed last week. The nasty cold/virus I had took me out of commission for anything outside of work and the most meager of household duties. Friday I wasn’t even able to work…I drove there walked into the building and realized that I just wasn’t going to be able to do it…turned around and went back home. Rest was what I needed….and a respite from the billions of germs that are on every surface at school. Blech.
I do have an art journal page to share. It’s been a work in progress for quite a while.
I just love how it turned out. The image is from a circa 1970s calendar. So sweet.
Layering of bits of papers has been on my list of favorite techniques lately.
As well as staining and drippage using more liquid mediums.
My photo challenge has definitely been going better than last month.
1) I am here 2) Yellow 3) On the floor 4) Plain 5) Stack 6) Happy Place 
7) Bright 8) Splendid 9) Everyday moments 10) I like this 11) Me 12) Sweet Notice the Vikings logo for 10: I like this. Yepper…life long Vikings fan, that’s me! The Vikings miracle in the last seconds victory last night isn’t likely on that many peoples radar (especially to my overseas friends) but I must say that I am still pinching myself. It feels a bit like a dream. Hopefully the Vikings can BRING IT HOME for the Superbowl! That would be amazing…home field advantage and all. We heard that JT(Justin Timberlake) is going to be partying at Paisley Park next week…maybe I’ll have a celebrity sighting in the next couple of weeks. Who knows?!? Of course it will have to warm up a bit to be able to see anyone braving the frigid temps. Using the snow blower to move snow today was insanely cold. Made much quicker work of the chore though.

I can’t believe we are into December already!! I think its because we have no snow that I’m having a hard time wrapping my brain around it. Although that is supposed to change in the next couple hours as I write this. I am happy to say that we at least have the tree up and the house decorated…as much as we do. We aren’t outside light people. I admire those who do…it’s just not us.
Last year after the holidays I bought a tree on clearance at our grocery store of all places….totally sight unseen. All I knew was it was pre-lit with white lights. It was such a steal that I couldn’t pass it up especially since out old pre-lit tree had a band of dead lights smack in the middle.
Isn’t it pretty!?!? Not bad for $34.Mini-me put together some new hanging decor for a bare corner of the livingroom. I gave her a little springboard idea and she ran with it while I was busy.
It turned out really cute.Last Friday I had the privilege of supporting a couple of students on a field trip to Orchestra Hall. I hadn’t been there since Mini-me was in preschool.
It is so unique inside…and beautiful, not that my quick phone picture really captured the beauty.
I spent a good share of Saturday trying to decide between designing a photo card and writing a Christmas letter to send out this year. Who knows…I may do both.
Oh that’s right…I need to update you with my photos to finish out the November photo a day.
22. A favorite thing…..Marvin, of course
23. I made this! ……fabric star ornament (shared the tutorial links last week)
24. I need to do this! ……put all this crap away…just keepin’ it real folks.
25. Time……clock I made over a decade ago….likely should change the battery one of these days.
26. Wall…….my favorite wall especially this time of year.
27. I’m thankful for this…… Love
28. Black…….J’s school chrome book
29. So, this happened…..inflation of the new activity dome outside my school (it’s truly immense)
30. I bought this! ……not telling what’s inside though.
And with that…November is done.
This is my new challenge for December. I followed an old version of the October challenge by this same site. I’m enjoying the creative challenge of these photo a day prompts especially since most days this is my only creative outlet.
Want to see what I’ve already gotten for December?
