Getting further on our clime

2008-07-22T07:31:00.000-07:00

He looks pretty happy about doing this.

Taking a hike to the top, with Doug.

2008-07-22T07:26:00.000-07:00

Took pictures along the way,
We were doing not too bad, getting up there, took our time.

This is Dougs favorite place to come or be at.

Trip Up North, with my friend Doug

2008-07-22T07:18:00.000-07:00

We got there about 7ish in the am. Brought sister Shirley a
Tim's. This is a view from her fantastic deck her son built,
he is doing some great stuff up there.
A view from the huge rock, her cottage is hidden with the rock, the one that you can hardly see is my nieces cottage.
This was taken from on top looking across to the 18 mile Island. French River.
Shed and wash day, it was so windy this year, no one could hardly believe it.

I got My New Railing

2008-07-08T04:07:00.000-07:00

Love my new railing, beenings I need it now.
My herb tree is doing so well.
At the top right corner saw this butterfly.
So it landed for a better photo.

I decided to do some art on my stairway

2008-07-08T03:25:00.000-07:00

This is the image before I put the finishing touches on.
This two images after I was finished.
Put the leaves so it would fall on the side, hopefully I can do that all the way up the stairs, with some dragonflies, will post as I get it done.

My sister Martha's backyard

2008-06-29T05:53:00.000-07:00

So many pretty flowers.

More sky Pic's

2008-06-28T18:21:00.000-07:00

the first one from the last storm.

this is the storm from the other day.

this one was one the same night.

I took a pic of my ever wandering vines, they are so long
they reach the top of the tree, spruce tree, pretty big too.

The sky after the storm last week

2008-06-28T14:44:00.000-07:00

Really pretty colors

Nice sunset.

These are pic's of the tree from next door.

2008-06-19T21:12:00.000-07:00

Well just getting back on the blog, we had a storm the other night, and the tree from next door fell on my shed.
Then there is no use getting insurance, cause, they told me I needed to move the tree, told them they were con artist, and hung up. They just take all your money for --------?

The neighbor did take the tree down and that was good,
but the shed has moved, because I have notbeen able to shut my door properly.
It was nasty, thats all I can say.

Hope this works, for thge posting, nice to be back on.

More Pic's.

2008-03-18T21:24:00.000-07:00

I go by this gas station everyday, they have these cute sayings, they change it every few weeks, I decided to take pic's, how true is that.
I was too late taking this one, at first break the trees were all white,it was so beautiful, too bad, so second break only the tips were all white.
This is the smoking area at work.
Took this pic this afternoon, it was raining and melting the snow away, yahoooooooooooo.

Late but done, My Challenge

2008-03-09T08:58:00.000-07:00

I used my rust material for the back, and glued a stiffer material in between, then used chinese papers in 2 corners.
Put coins in the middle, on top of dyed gauze.

Used Angliena in the opposite corners, and using the metal, as half and full moon, one earning for as shooting stars,
Here I used stickers of 2 Chinese women, and fish swimming around a flower, the round circle is a world,
I tried to do a yin and yang sign, need a better zoom.
Now the rust material for the back, and baisted a rik rac
around the piece.

This was another snow storm

2008-03-09T08:29:00.000-07:00

This was the snow storm that started Friday, shovelled the rest of the snow last night.

I finished shovelling for fifth time last night.

This is the Sunday morning, sun is out mild enough that it's melting, now outside my back door, eve's are full so got to do the back now so it does not freeze, but it is so pretty.

Fencing in the falling rocks.

2008-02-28T16:07:00.000-08:00

As they fenced in the rock wall, it could not stop that wonder of the frozen waterfall.

I love this frozen waterfall wall, in the summer it is always wet, and trees and other plants are green,
with the rockwall as a background.

Art work at its best. Mother nature can be so artistic.

Then the woods, and home I go, to bed you think?? well sometimes.

The darkness was lifted.

2008-02-28T15:52:00.000-08:00

Still a wonderful look at life in the early morning.

The reflections on the frozen ice patches in the snow, the pink and orange of the sky.

Almost in the city, that dark cloud over head, was gone and then you needed the sun glasses or
you could hardly see, it was a sunny day, cold but sunny.

As the sun came up in the morning

2008-02-28T15:42:00.000-08:00

With the weather being so cold, there was a frost all around, looks great in pictures.

The sun was coming out a little more, giving it a picture perfect look.

Now the frost could be seen, and the sun climbing up a little higher, with a pink hue.

Now the sun making it look like a fire in the distants.

More Of That White Stuff.

2008-02-12T19:30:00.000-08:00

This was taken about 830pm Tuesday night, so here we go again.

Wind was blowing, while shoveling, and on the road conditions, said poor, for the visibility, snow covered
hyw's. Its just nasty, hope everyone else is having a much better weather, I know it could be worse, must be thankful, that I am.

Another storm day, the day after

2008-02-12T19:21:00.000-08:00

These pic's are from the back yard, we got quit a bit again.

Had to push the back door to open it up, wow this has been a stormy winter.

Some of that snow came off the shed, thank goodness, it was making the kitchen very dark, there is
a window looking into the shed.

1st of Feb/08 and a Snow Day

2008-02-01T08:32:00.000-08:00

Well it was very slippery and windy , making it hard for the drive home, but of course,
it's Friday!!!!!!!!!

We had the street salted and cleanned on one side anyway, City workers live on
the street, lucky us. Front view.

The back looks so white and wonderlandish, it's getting a crust on the white stuff.

It's like raining and changing so fast, this is suppose to stop by tonight, and it's only
minus -13, by Wednesday reaching plus 11, the world sure is getting strange,
Like floods, wind storms, flash freezing, snow storms, then extreme heat, fires, I hope
this world is still fixable, more over Mother Nature.
My wonderful neighbor shoveled my walk way and steps, Twice,next up my turn.
Thanks Cindy.

Hi Tonniece , Hope you get better soon.

2008-01-26T01:02:00.000-08:00

Lyn wanted to say hello and miss you lots, just get better soon.

Tracey said hey girl, Love ya.

Sue wanted to let you know she is thinking of you, the girls were not too happy how they looked and I told them thats how we would remember them at work, not all glammed up! So they just smiled, and then said a few nasty words, good thing I didn't have them on a video.

Card I made for my Dear Brother

2007-12-28T22:19:00.000-08:00

Used card stock, painted some brown paper for the top part, on the bottom of the card used birch bark, cut the deer
from an old card, sprinkled some glitter glue on the bark, came out very nice, he loved it.

Mrs. Santa

2007-12-22T06:41:00.000-08:00

Made this card for the man that needs Mrs Santa's help. It didn't turn out to clear.

when you lift up the Christmas ball Mrs. Santa, sexy.

More Christmas Cards

2007-12-22T06:34:00.000-08:00

The day of the snow storm

2007-12-16T13:12:00.000-08:00

This first pic is from Saturday 15 Dec. 07

The snow topped my door, took three tries to get the door open. Started to shovel at 2pm. This was Sunday 16 Dec 07

My from lawn, people were out there shovelling the nice white stuff, YA RIGHT!!!!!

I just couldn't put the snow any higher, thank God thats over, my back is killing me. It's still snowing.

Well all done and so am I.

2007-12-02T08:25:00.000-08:00

This is how high the snow is after shoveling, and I am tuckered out.

It was starting to drizzle out so the snow was getting pretty heavy.

The last white car in the picture was all covered, next we see a women, this women talking on her cell walking in slingback high heels to the car, slipping and sliding, no mits, not even a winter coat, cleaning her windshield with a magazine, we were like wow look at her, then she tried to more her car, frontwords, instead of going back, got stuck, and Cindy and I were really too tired to help, thank God, her son I guess went over there and got the car out, he too had not gloves, cleaning the car with his hands, oh thats burr. I was out there from 8:00am to 9:30, sooooooooooooooo, tired, sleepy, and very sore.

I had to change my coat because it had started to drizzle, also put a better pair of gloves on. I was once again nice and warm, not that it was that cold out. It has stopped with the drizzle now, but just got a call from Dianne, telling me there was more of all this later today. OMG. The test was that it looked so pretty, and it does now. Going for a rest.. So hope every one has a great day.

Yes this is the pic's as of 3am, here in Ontario Canada

2007-12-02T00:31:00.000-08:00

It's 3:30 and it continues to snow.
Story under the pic's.

Well it's 2:30 in the morning, here in Winter Wonderland.

2007-12-01T23:44:00.000-08:00

It started snowing about 12:30 am, and looking out at it now, of course it looks pretty, mind you, but you know we must venture out in this tomorrow. There is about 2 and a half inches there now. Heard the snow plows running out there, not much traffic, guess we knew what we were in for. Usually the weather men are never on the mark, but yes, today they were right, go figure. I will take pic's after I do some shoveling, I'll need too, to get out the door, oh burrrrrrr, sounds like fun, right.I couldn't wait, so I opened up the back door, now looking at the blue bench, thats how deep the snow is so far, it's 3 am, I will download them just so we can agree how pretty it is.

A few more cards

2007-11-27T06:29:00.000-08:00

I better get busy making the envelops now before
Christmas is over, and they are not all one size fits all.

I guess I better learn to use the stamps with a little more care.
They have been fun to do, so got to get going and Do! Do! Do! I have more inprogress, be back soon.

A few more cards.

I figured it might be just as good to not only have the
regular type, but make it more personal,

Some of these will be easy to guess for Who they will be for, But
I am going for it anyway.

Better keep at it, before the feeling goes and the next thing,
well it's Christmas.
