The little downhill flowing brook that bloomed in the lane next to my house yesterday has dried up. A big dose of lemony sunshine arrived this morning.
A hot sunshine spotlight centered right over Moss Cottage. After my shower I air-dried out back in my towel. Don't worry it's private! More or less. Besides my motto since my birthday has been, "I'm 47 and I can do what I want when I want."
Yes I can! I'm pretty much unstoppable. You would be too if you had on a pair of party pants. I'm off to stir up trouble in the neighborhood. Then it's back inside for more artful experimenting. Happy Sunday, cute people!

greetings back at you Miss sunshine Mary Ann. VBG. I LOVE the new header art on your blog. You journal pages are yummy and so full of hints of spring. My front door is opened wide today. It's in the 40's, (that's a heat wave) for those of us in Minnesota. I have the heat turned off, a few other windows open and am soaking in all the warmth bouncing off the piles of melting snow. In a word; It's is gorgeous out. And in all this warmth have been busy creating little scrappy notes inspired by YOU and all that 'pure experimentation' you do so very well. Thanks Sunshine.

Hey MAM, I am loving the bright pop of your new pages! I am also happy to find out your 2nd class extends through the end of the year. I've been working really hard on my PharmWife chores lately so I think I deserve a treat like the Remains of the Day class to finally do something with my 30+ years of collected clutter. It needs a purpose!

Hello Miss Moss. I like your new photo as you look like you are thinking up some new adventures. Lemony sunshine...how divine. To air dry is for clothes on the line I always thought or at least that is what Grandma taught me. Boy did we hang a lot of clothes on the line back in the days. I was always amazed at how she could handle and hang an entire sheet with no help and without dropping or touching it to the dirty ground.

First off, you can NOT be 47 years old. OMG, if you really are then you have certainly done something right because I would have put you in your 30's from your pics I have seen. (Big compliment coming from my 44 y/o self, I promise. :) )
And I hear ya on doing what you want when you want...that's exactly my rules for living these days. I'm too damn old not to be my very own boss of me. LOL
Peace & Love,
~Barb~

Sunshine! At the moment, we can only freeze-dry. But who wants to?
Those pages are just divine!

I love your new header design!!! Inspiring journalling, great colors and doodling. I also "loved" your Remains of the day class, I have been busy with other obligations for a while but I am jumping back in to create more journal pages for my Remans journal. Lovely day to you.

Private - more or less is my motto too- much to my neighbors dismay!! Beautiful pages- and I hope you caught some fish from that stream!
