Rock On

Sorry again for the lack of updating.  I feel like I am running in place lately.  So much to do, so little time.  I am planing to do a huge Spring cleaning this week with a garage sale planned for  Saturday as motivation to clear this place  out.   So this weeks posts may be unexciting as well, but you never know.  I am sure my creative kids will come up with a few ideas on their own.  Which I am really looking to as the weather warms.

Throwing them in the back yard with odds and ends of junk and paint is really a favorite activity.  Wet sand and body art, making forts and loads of pretend play.  Once my house is clean I can focus on other things!!

I sort of work like that.  I do best when I can put all my energy to one place-this week it will be cleaning and decluttering.  Next will be gardening and then on to summer activities!!  I can only be good at one thing at at time.  Be it cooking, cleaning, researching something.  My son is just like me.  I try to remember that when I think he is having as educational dry spell.  He will always find his way to a focus.  Although the older he gets the lull in between is longer and longer.  Nerve racking!!  But that is another long post.

Thanks for all the encouragement and kind words on showing my photos but it didn’t happen.  I arrived at the barren space with 20 minutes to hang my stuff.  Looking around at the empty walls I assumed the show was canceled.  After checking with several tenants the sad truth was confirmed-No SPARK this month.  Well I am ready for next month or June.  I also talked to Renee at the gallery where Molly has her class and I am going to put some stuff there.  I am glad to have some finished pieces.  I am usually running at the last minute as I was Sturday but now I am ahead!

Ginger spent some time rockin’ out yesterday. I would like to say she was singing something classic but I am sure it was Hannah Montanna .

I had plans  to do the watercolor tutorial from Camp Creek last week.  I bought some watercolors in the tube as well as a multi-color tray from Marc’s last week-($2.48!!).  The girls found them and tried them out yesterday.

And Yes the photo from the last post was a train and Railroad crossing.  I really wanted to get out of the car to shoot it but my girls were freaking out so I slid out of the passenger window.
