Are you a good Witch or a bad Witch??

Well, which Witch is it?


This is a 2x2 pendant I made for a swap


recently. It is double sided so when you


wear it you get to decide are you feeling


Good Witchy or Bad Witchy?



Things that make me feel Good Witchy:



Fall is here! Being able to go outside and


play.


Switching over to hot beverages at *Bucks.


Pumpkin Cookies.......mmmmmmm.


Getting the garden ready for planting.










Things that make me feel Bad Witchy:




Scorpions in my house!


The weeds that I have to pull to get the


garden ready.


Cleaning the closet.


(though I'll feel Good Witchy when it's done)




So, What makes you GW/BW??????

Lilly moves to New Mexico


Lilly reached her destination safe and sound!
She will be living with a sweet friend and a
talented book artist Maggie. I met Maggie through
the Blank~ish Journal Swap and we met in person
during lunch at Art Unraveled. Lilly was staying
with me, a bit longer than expected, but she is
a wonderful guest and I hope she fills Maggie's
heart with laughter just like she did mine.
(She doesn't know she is a paper doll.)
I have been ultra busy creating for swaps so I will
have lots to show soon.

ALERT! Warn your friends!!!!!

Most of you have read the scare-mail about the person whose kidneys were stolen while he was passed out. Well, read on. While the kidney story was an urban legend, this one is not. It's happening every day. My thighs were stolen from me during the night a few years ago. It was just that quick. I went to sleep in my body and woke up with someone else's thighs. The new ones had the texture of cooked oatmeal. Who would have done such a cruel thing to legs that had been mine for years? Whose thighs were these and what happened to mine? Hurt and angry, I resigned myself to living out my life in jeans and Sheer Energy pantyhose. Then, just when my guard was down,the thieves struck again.

My butt was next. I knew it was the same gang, because they took pains to match my new rear end to the thighs they stuck me with earlier. I couldn't believe that my new butt was attached at least three inches lower than my original. Now, my rear complemented my legs, lump for lump. Frantic I prayed that long skirts would stay in fashion.

It was two years ago when I realized my arms had been switched. One morning I was fixing my hair and I watched horrified but fascinated as the flesh of my upper arms swung to and fro with the motion of the hairbrush. This was really getting scary. My body was being replaced one section at a time. How clever and fiendish.

Age? Age had nothing to do with it. Age is supposed to creep up,unnoticed, something like maturity. NO, I was being attacked repeatedly and without warning. What could they do to me next? My poor neck suddenly disappeared faster than the Thanksgiving turkey it now resembled. That's why I decided to tell my story. I can't take on the medical profession by myself. Women of the world, WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE! That really isn't plastic that those surgeons are using. You KNOW where they are getting those replacement parts, don't you? The next time you suspect someone has had a face "lifted," look again. Was it lifted from you? I think I finally found my thighs-- and I hope that Cindy Crawford paid a really good price for them! This is not a hoax! This is happening to women in every town every night!

WARN YOUR FRIENDS

P.S. SO this was one of the dumb forwarded emails that we all get and sometimes delete. This time I decided to cut and paste it to the blog. Cuz I really did think it was funny. Now countless millions can read and I don't have to forward anyone the email. Take that you virus hackers!!!!

Have a great day! If you find my thighs on Cindy Crawford let me know......

Art Unraveled Part 2


This is the class photo from Razzle Dazzle Rectangles by Gail Russakov. I highly recommend the class if it is offered next year. Gail is a terrific teacher. We had so much fun. Steph and I live across town (and it is a very big city) so we don't see each other as much as we would like...but we took this class together at AU. HMmmmm...Steph and I both like purple (and who doesn't), guess which ones are us????

Tea as art!



I was sizzled and purchased a flowering tea set recently. I first saw it on the ultra talented-Gina Armfield's blog, then promptly rented Marie Antoinette. I saw it in the movie and I was hooked. The movie isn't my absolute favorite, but oooh is it filled with visual eye candy. So ultra girly girl!! I shared some yummy beautiful tea with my also fabulous Mother. The package has a ton of separate flowering tea types. I even shared one with my ultra faboulouso artistic friend Ms. Stephanie. OOOOH the discovery I shall have trying out the rest of the teas.
Oh cool is that???
