catching up

Sitting at the coffeeshop.... catching up... drinking a cup of iced coffee and surfing the web....handed out one of my cards to a gal...maybe a new art day person... who knows...

Tropical Storm update

Well, Tropical Storm K has withered to mostly a non-event. We are getting some rain wich is good because the rain barrel was repaired Friday and set in place...so excited because it was full this mroming and still holding water. No leak!! No wind but still we are cutting down the tree that sits by my art room because Mr Buoy has once again gone up it and onto the roof. He spent 8+ hours on the roof Wednesday and I am tired of climbing the ladder after him. Went out last evening for dinner and tok a few pictures while awaiting the arrival of the storm. Got some cool shots of an Osprey having her dinner in a tree and some of the Long Beach Harbour. Today was spent sleeping in (7am, sigh), the gym, do laundry, eat some lunch (baked potato with chili & cheese...YUM!) Oh, yeah,,, and cut down that infernal tree! Tomorrow is art day... 11am-2pm.
