A Day In the Life

It’s late and I’m not motivated to activate my brain.  There…I admit it.  But I’m too stubborn to miss a post.  This here is a filler-post.  All the popular shows are doin’ it.

Proof That God Is A Woman

Several posts back I was lamenting on having to put some serious time into the perusal and purchase of new bras.

Once Is Never Enough

If you missed the North by Northwest broadcast last Sunday – or if you have a strange, insatiable desire to listen to me prattle on about myself over and over and over again – go here *Note* – I’ve had to remove the link as it was broken.  I’ll try to find the new link post haste.

Thanks, Sheryl. It was lovely to meet and speak with you.

Campbell River Day 2 (Jan. 21)

A long rest in a wonderfully dark and quiet room we were back at the gallery for 9:00am.  The volunteers were coming in a bit later, so I had a chance to wander through the space and make a few more decisions.

Campbell River Day 1 (Jan. 20)

Yes, I’m posting this artventure postmusemously.

Apologies for the unannounced absence.  My plans to post on the 19th letting y’all know that I was off to Campbell River to set up Slim Shady and wouldn’t be Musing for several days were completely kiboshed by technical difficulties.
