More about Zines

Okay, a few more have shown up in the mail....I love
the feedback. It was worth all the work just to have
so many people love what they got. I guess I should
ask around if anyone else wants one...no one has asked.
I organized the leftovers from this project and I think I
do have enough to do several more. I must have gotten
carried away when I was printing..hehehe
I'm winding down this job and have a little more vacuuming
to do then I'm off to go home and check in with Mom to see
how she is doing. I still need to fix my cord downstairs so
that I can get online again. I took it apart so that I could hook
the telephone up closer to where my Mom is laying down and
then she can answer the phone as she pleases. I did the same
with the intercom and she can call downstairs easier too.
We were going to have company but I think that has been put
on hold as of today. Oh well.
I want to go to Michael's Art Store and window shop. I love
that place and they are having a good sale right now. As usual
when I have an extra 10.00 I can never find anything I want
and when I totally broke..omg.
I did a few watercolors for a blind swap with a gal in Kentucky
I have to get these in the mail today or tomorrow. Gonna run
along and get stuff done.

Dully Noted
Well, Mom is faring a bit better, but modern medicine just
isn't helping much. She got out of the house with me for
an hour today, but was really exhausted when we got home.
I still feel so sad for her, and sometimes I can't even hug her
because it hurts her too much...that's rough.
Tonight the sky was breathtaking. The clouds are beginning
to come together (storm) but the Big Dipper made its appearance and it was spectacular. I love unusual skys.
Got the Haiku Zine finished and mailed the 14 players each
an original "handmade" zine. I maxed out my budget so any
others getting mailed will have to recoup expenses.
Have a couple of trades going at DAD, LMAO and OAD.
(destinyartdeco,landmailartobjects, and originalartdecos)
I hope no more mail gets lost, I really hate lost mail.
I'm getting antsy to find out how everyone felt about the
zine...I put so much into them.
It's getting cold, very cold at night that I am now using the
woodstove again...oooh wood heat...the best. If I ever have
the funds I want to get a woodstove with a window so that I
can watch the fire, if I do that now I risk the chance of getting
too much smoke in the place...not cool.
Even though we live close to civilization...this is really still
forest land. I like living in the country, miss the ocean tho
but not the big cities and the traffic.
I do have the traveling bug no doubt. I would like to go to
Germany to stay with a cousin for a bit, but can't leave my
Mom here alone and I'm not sure she can make the trip.
Everyday is a mystery as to how she will be feeling. Tonight
she has been queasy and I imagine will not be able to keep
dinner down. I know this is a creepy subject...just have to
get it out. I feel helpless. Hum...

Well, it has been a rough day for my poor mom. She has such
horrible pain and I've been at the doctor's office with her for
most of the afternoon. She is resting tonight and I shall see
how she feel in the morning. I don't want her to be so sad
but the pain has gotten to much to take. My wishes that she
gets some relief. Will check in later on this subject. T.

blogging

original-trish
well, I must admit my blog sure is boring compared to
aimhleas, etal. I'm still techno challenged and have
not figured how to post pics...can it be so hard? I don't have the icon that everyone talks about. It's September...where
did the summer go.
