Out and About



I don't let the weather hold me down for long. Just until I go stir crazy. I tell ya, I was out of here as soon as my morning cuppa was gone. I skedaddled around in the snow with my ice sculpting chain saw and carved myself a pretty nice car with front wheel drive, if I do say so myself. And off to Michael's Dollar Daze Sale I went. I trudged thru snow and ice to get to the front door. I batted away hundreds of shoppers to get to the acrylic paint aisle and foraged for the "good" colours.


Whew! I found 27 of them that weren't too badly scratched up from frenzied shoppers and stood in line for what seemed like ten whole minutes. I coulda used a couple half minutes in there, I'll tell ya. I meandered through the parking lot of Costco, Office Depot, TJMax, and Best Buy to shave off a few minutes of my return route home. I made it just in time for the paint to explode out of the bottles onto my waiting canvas where they then coalesced into the most fabulous painting of my glorious career. Whew! I wonder what I'll do tomorrow! 


I managed to snap a few photos of raindrops against the wall which tells me we have a few days of slushies coming. If you have found an interesting wall or doorway that you want to write about, come play with me. I don't bite.
