For about 12 days straight---I have made my Family, my Friends, and MYSELF absolutely nuts---yup---this is what the LAST push of getting Fall stuff done looked like at my house---pieces and parts of this and that all over the place. In the picture you will notice that there are multiples of some things---I only set that up to take the pictures as there wasn't enough room to do all of the items in the pictures. The pumpkins with the curly stems---there are actuually 14 of them and are up at the shop here in town as of this weekend---the witches on pedestals--there were 6 of them---each different---the fat witches--there were 4 of them and the pumpkin heads as well 4 each---and all different---there are 4 of the green headed witches--way too cool----honest to goodness I thought my family was gonna run away from home---probably wouldn't have been a bad idea--LOL. I am going to be listing all day today and tomorrow to get the last of these items out the door---they will be on Etsy and on my WSOAPP site----I also am offering a SUPER deal on my soaps in Etsy----so do check in this week and see what's shakin!!!

Have Brush Will Travel!

Helllloooooo my dears---yup---it's me---well at least I think its me---I am bangin into myself coming and going---teehee----Heres some work I just completed at a Restaurant called Jimmys Pizza in Becker MN. A friend of mine aquisitioned me to do the paintings on her walls---I had a BLAST doing it---and it was a great diversion to the stupid stuff I have swirling around me constantly---yes---I said stupid---stupid stupid STUPID stuff! Summer is slowly dwindlin down and honestly the weather has been really good here in my parts---a little more TOASTY than normal---perfect for me as I am kind of a 'Outta the Pan into the FIRE' sort of gal---not on purpose tho!!! LOL

The large clock actually WORKS---I cut a hole in their wall and placed the mechanism in there---AND the dang deal is 5ft in diameter---very cool! The designs were done free hand with many many layers of paint were done to get the right effects---that's me doing the 'high finance' part---not good with a calculator at ALL---

Got to go for now---I am getting hollered at for not doing what I should be doing when I should be doing it---HA--go figure!!!

I am Just Skip-Taggelin' Along!!!

I am proud to announce our son Ryan has graduated from The University of Minnesota with an Interior Design Major!!! YEA!!! I am bustin buttons allll over the place---his Thesis has been published and he is currently working on the prototype to this new concept in design that he implemented in his thesis----very proud----do NOT ask him to help ever pick out a paint color for any room----apparently Interior Designers get confused with Interior Decorators or he will snap like a saltine----ahhhhh kids---they JUST crack me up!!!

What is Wrong with People!

A very sad thing happened here yesterday---in a nearby community---an officer was shot and killed still seat belted in his squad car---responding to a possibe carjacking---having family and friends who serve----It hit me hard---just seemingly another day this fine officer came to work to do his job---and doesn't get to return home to his wife and children---I am saddened by this even though I do not know him personally ---it is still very tragic----please pray for all of our/your community leaders who are out and about doing what they were trained to do---protect and serve---it is a different, more angry time in our world right now----and I truly wish it would stop---right now----TODAY!

My New Shop is OPEN!!!!

WHITE BIRCH BOUTIQUE

I have a new endeavor---it is called White Birch Boutique and it is some of the items that I make for the Round Barn Potting Company. I love the fresh look of French Inspired art---in fact--Lori---the owner of the RB pulled me into that whole thing kickin and a screamin---now I can't get enough of it!!! Here's a little sample of what I have listed over in Etsy under my new name--oh--no worries---I am still making my other stuff---now I am trying to see if I can manage all three of the shops over there at the same time--HA!

AND She Does It AGAIN---Makes me LAUGH!!!

AND She Does It AGAIN---yup another installment from my sister who has got an uncanny knack of making all of us girls laugh when it is needed the most---apparently this must be her 'position' in this world---and I am truly happy for that---here is her Friday message to me and my sisters---I about pee'd in my pants!!!! I hope no one is offended by anything in this story---if you are---I am sorry!

Hey Girlies, Once again, I have a funny story to report in regard to those crazy clients of the office across the alley.

You may wonder, can a skin head carry 7 DVD's without a bag, talk on a cellphone, and ask directions to the legal aid office while riding a bike? The answer is NO. I feel personally responsible for this, as he asked if I knew where the legal aid office was and I pointed and said "under that big blue sign that says Legal Aid". He turned to look and crashed into the telephone pole, resulting in a tangled mess of swastikas (sp), sunglasses, DVD's and pride. I was glad to see that he was not hurt, what with the dangling chains and all, it could have been disastrous, but he thanked me none-the-less. I can't help but to feel a bit guilty, especially since I just know his copyof Thunderdome is ruined.It is amazing all the knowledge I have gleaned from these chance encounters in the alley. I would like to share some of them with you.

How many people can you fit into a 1997 Chevy Malibu? 9 1/2, if the dogkeeps his head out the window.

Do you need teeth to whistle loudly? No, but it works best if you would like to speak coherently after grabbing your intended party's attention. Really, all I could get from the conversation was Jess, Watermelon, IceAuger and Goat. Not quite sure how they all mesh together. I just pointed to the big green building, he smiled and nodded.

A stroller NEVER works well on stairs. It's just not engineered for that type of terrain.

When wearing white knit shorts, the wearing of underwear is not an option.

It is not necessary, with a four door vehicle, to have all the doors in working order. All you need is one. Climbing over the front seat is not a problem, unless you are wearing a tight dress. Coincidently, this trick also works with minivans--as long as the back hatch opens, it's all good.

And last, but not least, the mullet, as a hairstyle, is not dead. It is alive and well and living in Northern Minnesota.Have a great weekend! m.

AND THERE'S MORE!!!!

OMG!!! And I am not making this up.....I just got another tip from the Crazy Parking Lot Clients--more words to live by--Friday must be bonanza day or something. A depression in the black top of a parking lot, strategically placed in front of a door (big white metal pannelled structure, brass knob about halfway down), marked with a mat on the ground that says "Welcome" signifies that you have parked in front of a doorway. We apologize for the dents in your bumper, however, we were not aware you had parked in front of our door until we had opened said door.
