WOAH!!!!! Lilith, you are fantastically talented!!!

Do you only make these for your own enjoyment or do you sell them? I would be very interested in buying a piece of your work!

Thank you!

@Dee*Jay that's very kind of you! I mostly paint for myself, but can also do commissions

Lilith, I'm trying to put up a Loupe Troop listing so we can connect, but it keeps telling me "Oops, something went wrong." I'll try again later from another computer because I am definitely interested. Seriously, you are EXTREMELY talented!

@CMN Was someone in the mud, haha?

Yes - he is very spoilt. I do let him be a dog though and run in the mud if his heart desires but my rule is that he must then have a bath!

He and Gracie are getting along wonderfully. She takes no c**p from him and can hold her own. They do play rough but she is A OK. And OMG Gracie is such a love. Sweeter than sweet. She snuggles under my chin when we sleep and we are fully ensconced in one another's arms. Thank goodness we don't have to social distance from our furry babies.

LOL I am sharing this photo from yesterday late afternoon. Look at this crazy perspective. Tiny feet large head. So not IRL as she is but this photo cracks me up and we all need some joy and laughter and lightness right now.

 

[missy]

More funny photos from yesterday.

Lilith, I owe you a reply email but I need to read a 40 page regulatory filing today before I do anything more than a quick check in on PS. Will get back to you ASAP once I slog through all this. Ugh.

Master 7 and I while bouncing on the trampoline to "The one that got away" by Katy Perry. I've posted some lyrics to help you understand the context of the conversation.

Summer after high school, when we first met
We make-out in your Mustang to Radiohead
And on my eighteenth birthday, we got matching tattoos

Used to steal your parents liquor and climb to the roof
Talk about our future like we had a clue
Never planned that one day I'd be losing you

In another life, I would be your girl
We keep all our promises, be us against the world

In another life, I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away

The one that got away


All this money can't buy me a time machine, no
Can't replace you with a million rings, no
I should'a told you what you meant to me, whoa
Cause now I pay the price

***

7yo: Is this the song where the lady marries a nice fellow like Daddy who buys her jewels but she keeps remembering the dodgy fellow?

Me: Yes something like that

7yo: No dodgy fellows for you. You love Daddy and your jewels. Why would she pine after a dodgy fellow when she's married to a lovely guy like Daddy.

Me: In the video clip the fellow drives off a cliff and dies so she pines after him for what could have been.

7yo: Drank too much liquor that's why he drove off a cliff.

I laughed so hard I could barely bounce for the next 5 minutes!

A pretty distraction!
I was just going through some photos that DH took of a model a few years ago.
DH made the headpiece from antlers, faux pearl strands, silk flowers and feathers,
