...and with that, the carnage was complete....

Sometimes a weiner dog takes a long winters nap and wakes up to the moment having passed....all presents unwrapped, all people gone to the table, and life as he knew it returns to it's pre-Christmas routine.

Runaway Summer

As we head towards Christmas I'm only left with remnants of our beautiful, and busy summer...one lone wicker tricycle heading to the shed for winter storage sans asparagus fern.
Polishing silver, digging for ribbon, picking greenery for various garlands...all being done with one eye on the sandpaper, newly acquired paints, and studio full of tables, mirrors, chairs, and shelves ready to take on new lives.

May your season be merry and bright....always looking ahead to the next big thing! ...wonder what Oprah's looking at right now....
