New Inspiration

Got a couple of new Somerset Studio magazines yesterday on my shopping trip and have been engrossed in the incredible artwork that is showcased there. I always feel so jealous when I go through one of their magazines because the talent featured there is so amazing and I feel completely inadequate. I have some pretty good ideas but don't have the tools to put them into a physical form. Of course, I don't try often or hard enough either.

I bought a desktop calendar yesterday that has weird or wacky websites for every day of the year. I'll share some of them here on the blog; today's offer is www.ninjakiwi.com/bloons.html. It's described as a 'time-waster' and 'hyper-addicting'. Don't say you weren't warned.

Nelson has been itching to go bass fishing and the weather today is perfect for it. Blake even rushed out and bought himself a fishing license so he could go with him. I stayed behind to nurse a headache and finish up laundry. I'm really surprised that Blake wanted to go; it's not really his cup of tea but he's surprised me a couple of times this weekend with what he's wanted to do with Nelson and myself. I'm glad; we need to spend all the family time we can.

Hopefully Blake will be at Ole Miss this fall (maybe even this summer) working towards his goal of becoming a teacher. He's getting a slow start on a career; that's for sure. Maybe that means there will never be a question as to whether he's chosen wisely or not. He's too much like me in that he's a definite homebody. I enjoy getting out occasionally like the shopping trip yesterday but for the most part, I'm completely satisfied at home. I find plenty to do here and it's usually not cleaning like I should be. :-)

God Bless You
