Good Morning Monday

Another Rainy Monday here on the East Coast... I would actually really enjoy it if Summer vacation had started for the kids because then we could all be lazy and cuddle together!

But, I sent the kids off to school and I am going to run to one of my favorite little junk spots! It is only open on Monday AM's...not the most convenient! Still one of my favorite spots though!

Here is my Monday recap of last week....

Spent a few mornings at Pops

Baby Geese are everywhere! Usually we don't like the geese in the yard because they Poo everywhere, but...when they have little babies we are a little more lenient.

It was a gaggle of geese parade! Three sets of Mama & Daddy with their babies, all different ages.

One set, lost one of their 3. I was there on Tuesday and they had 3 little ones and by Thursday, only 2...sad. 

This poor Mama was down 5!! She started with 10....sad....

I was just trying to enjoy a cup of coffee and Izzy wouldn't stop staring at me...while perched on my lap! Worse than a little kid I tell ya!

Speaking of kids...this was my Saturday AM...trying to get around this group while doing laundry and "chores".

Little Birthday party for one of Lil's classmates. Lil LOVES to bowl! lol...

Trying to get ready for the art guild show....I have SO MUCH to do...

Hope last week was Picture Perfect for you!!

Sketch, Etch, Solder

This seems to be my Mantra this week...

Sketch, Etch, Solder...

Sketch, Etch, Solder...

Sketch, Etch, Solder...

I am not kidding, I was walking around my house today repeating it in my head!

Baseball is still running my life, and with it being National Police Week in D.C. it makes my life a wee bit crazier than usual!

Which is OK, I'll take the crazy schedule as long as my husband still comes at the end of his shift every day!

I am working on a new collection that I will be featuring in the  upcoming Muddy Creek Artist Guild Show the first three days in June.

Feeling a little pressure...it's my first showing with them....

I never call myself an "artist"..."Artisan", yes...artist...no.

Yesterday at the ball field I was watching the game and doing some primitive sketches...

and I do mean primitive! I get an idea and throw it down on paper but I really don't know what it is going to finish up with until I can lay my hands on the pieces!

It was hard to take my eyes off this guy though...he is pretty stinking cute!

While I was sketching, so was Lily...this has to be the funniest thing I have seen in ages! I'm sure my oldest daughter isn't going to agree...you can decide for yourself!

That's Phonetic spelling of "Bree in her Bathing Suit"....

Still chuckling over this...

OK, Time to get back to my

Sketch, Etch, Solder...

I veered off course a bit in blogland!

Showing you Mine

I'm tagging along to Jeanne Oliver's "I'll show you mine, if you show me yours..". This week is my Purse! This is actually not as full as it usually is! There is usually a ton of stuff in there....the lighting is pretty bad because it is cloudy this morning!

1. A Hat...I always have a hat in there.

I have crazy hair, especially when it gets a little humid here.

2. Epi Pen: Deathly allergic to Bee's and Cinnamon

3. Receipts and Handiwipes

4. Makeup pouch...filled with lip gloss and more lip gloss

5. Notebook

6. A little purchase from an Antique shop

7. Mail...always a random piece or two of mail

8. A scarf...never know when I will need to dress up an outfit.

9.  Roses balm...love this stuff. Especially for my fingers...

10. More Lip gloss

11. Vintage Cigar case that I use to conceal my tampons!

12. My Wallet. I love it, orange leather. It's my favorite...

As Jeanne mentioned in her post, I also love random info about people! It's fun!

Now, to be truthful...there are usually more snacks, sunglasses (a few pairs...girl needs options) a random piece junk, My Phone (used to take the picture), ear buds, and my keys are never in my purse!
