in an alley in WV

::December views - (2006)::

i haven’t taken any photographs lately.
it’s been below zero wind chill for days now.
needless to say, i ain’t going out.

on a different note: is anyone having any trouble connecting on gtalk? ever since they changed the look of gmail, i’ve had a difficult time connecting to chat. if i do connect, i have a hard time staying connected. just wondering if it’s google, my isp or what? i think i’m going to uninstall and re-install the software. see if that helps.

i like dead flowers

i am so happy that wisely is allowing this video to be embedded again. i had it once before on my blog, but took it down because it wasn’t working. this song is one of my favorites, and i love having it here.

I am loving the new wordpress. The new dashboard is so much easier to work with. if you’ve been hesitating to download and install it, i encourage you to do it now!! i don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

it was a day for pigtails and escaping out the back door

December 8, 2008 - 11:41 pm 5 Comments

Today was a day to escape out the back door, and roam around in the warm Kansas wind. It was a beautiful day. Beautiful! 62F.

It was a day for pigtails,

and hiding from the camera.

The sign by the back door was purchased on Etsy. I wish I could remember the seller’s name, but I can’t. I’m sure you could find her, if you do a search, though.

Sunday views from my desk

December 7, 2008 - 6:00 pm 3 Comments

Boring, but it’s all I’ve got on this gray december day.
Views from my desk.

shipping out Etsy and Amazon orders. woo hoo! thank you!

Greg and I stayed up until almost 4am watching The L Word. It was hard to concentrate because my TMJ was really flared up, and I was almost in tears. He was kind enough to stay up with me since I couldn’t lie down..mouth piece bothers me sometimes when I lie down. Before we knew it, we had watched all of season one, disc one. So, we didn’t wake up until almost noon. It’s been a lazy day. This is all I’ve got for now. Time to get myself into the studio and work, so I’ll have something to post later.

ani & letters

December 6, 2008 - 11:42 pm 1 Comment

These letters were an exchange between a mother and her son during the war. I have read them all, and have a unique peek inside their lives. He liked photography, and would spend his last few pennies for film and development. He would send the rest of what he earned to his mother, so she could pay the bills. He also had a sweetheart back home in Ohio, but he wouldn’t marry her. He feared being trapped in a marriage, so he kept re-enlisting.

Still, he struggled with his decision in almost every letter he wrote home to his mother. He thought he should settle down, and he would even tell his mother he was going home for good. He’d tell her that he was going to ask his girlfriend to marry him. Somehow, it never worked out that way, though. At the last minute he got cold feet, and the next letter home would say he signed the re-enlistment papers again. And, he’d go into detail about his guilt. It seemed like an endless cycle.

The story ends too soon. I have no idea what happened, but I have a gut feeling how it ended.
