Mermaids!

At Violettes message board, the Glitter sisters did a mermaid swap. Sioux sent me this fun ATC (above)
and the oh so cool Mermaid (below)
She has the best wavy hair in so many colors!

Below is the Mermaid that I made and sent to Nicci.
She's made out of polymer clay. I made a cane out of a cazillion colors for her tail and top. So much fun, but a lot of work.
She has huge lips doesn't she?!

Have a swimmingly great day!

L is for Light

We can see the light,
light a candle,
make light of something,
do some light reading,
there is the speed of light and light colors,
we can cook light and travel light,
we can dance by the light of the moon,
and if we are lucky
we can enjoy the Northern Lights

I is for Islands...

Much apologies for the blurry picture
Looking out toward the San Juans from Bellingham Bay.
Visit a site about the San Juan Islands here and a site here about Lummi Island which is the north easterly island on the San Juan Archipelago.

It's cold...

Boy is it ever cold here lately...
We've had rain and overcast skies and it's a bit on the nippy side. I actually have the heater on here in the office.
My family returns from the California funeral they were attending. They are in lower Washington as I type.
My sleep study...it showed that I do have sleep apnea. Now I have a second study on Friday night with the CPAP machine all night. they will decide the "flow" I will need to sleep with when I bring home my own machine. Won't my husband like that., however, I'm told it's not loud and well, he'll just have to suffer!
I'm gong to be doing a giveaway next month. I will post more about it later. It has to do with Breast Cancer awareness and a group of bloggers who are doing giveaways at the same time. All I know is that it , the giveaway, has to be pink in some way...fun!
Later gators!

The Nylons on Bellingham Bay

Tonight, with my son and some good friends, we went over to a park on the Bellingham Bay near Fairhaven and spent some time with The Nylons. We bought CD's and had them signed. The pic below is my friend Elizabeth with the group.
It was a very cold night seeing as it was outside on the water, but it didn't matter...such fun.



The gentleman in the white hat is a founding member from 1979. He had some moves...it was great. They were so kind and fun. I liked that.
Looking across the water at well, part of the waterfront. It's hard to see but the Whatcom Museum is the big red building/tower in front of the tall pink one.
