My little granddaughter is already 5 months old and gorgeous as her sisters! I went to breakfast with my daughter and her this morning and here she is trying a new cereal. Isn't she a doll?????

Ceiling is coming along!

My husband is a genius! I love my new ceiling. Now he's working on the electrical. So many choices in lighting!!!!! Of course, that's my job!

Draw your hand

This was fun!

Rotator Cuff Surgery

I'm going to Physical Therapy 3 times a week and doing some swimming to help it all heal and it seems to be getting better. I had frozen shoulder once and that was far worse, since PT didn't help it at all and it last over a year! So keep all your joints moving as much as you can while you are sitting there at your computer! Take time to stretch your arms over your head every 20 minutes or so. It's hard for us who sit at the computer day after day to do our work, or at a drawing table. Same thing. Stretch!

While I have been going through this, my husband has been tearing down the ceiling and walls of our living room. We are going to keep the beams exposed on the ceiling, and put wainscotting in between them. Here's a before image. I'll keep adding images as he goes along. He's already added 2 new windows and sanded the beams (not in this photo! Just wanted to share my sweeties talents!

Red Leaf Lettuce

My second experiment with photography. Even more fun! Organic!!!

surgery

Surgery is over and I'm feeling a bit groggy. Thanks for all the well wishes. My brother's graduation is tonight so I'm sure he'll call at some point to let me know how he liked the gift. We have always been very close. I have 4 brothers and a sister so it's a big family! Hope I can get clear eyed enough to do some sketching in the next few days!

My brother's Mike's graduation

My little brother Mike, is graduating from nursing school on Thursday so I made him a gift. It's a collage of old images, and some metal emphera and some ribbon. On the bottom is some sea glass, coral, and some small shells. Here's the full piece and a close up. Hope he likes it!

I'm having rotator cuff surgery tomorrow so I may not be able to make it to the graduation. That's sucks big time!!!!
