While I Should Have Been Working........

.....well, I've been DISTRACTED. Uh huh, I hear those little snickers of laughter. You know me.

Do a search for "Wordle" and you'll get the most used words on your blog......FUN!
What can I say?
It takes so little. *sigh*
I am still working on the house and studio, and managed to get one table CLEAN, as in, I can see almost all of the top. That, in and of itself, is a miracle. But little things get me sidetracked. Like this:


Yeah, I couldn't resist the pattern or the price. It lights the studio up like a bonfire. (it matches the flames on my car too, sooooo, it had to come home)
And then there were these Doc Marten's I could not, repeat, NOT RESIST.....and they kind of got me a little sidetracked too.....

Oh yeah!!!! These totally ROCK! Ed Hardy tattoo/argyles to finish off the mix!
They are just so *me*. And another purchase at a good price! (yes I am a tightwad of frightening proportions)
Remember I said I was thinking about doing a tutorial at the same time I was trying to clean? Like that was going to happen.....ha. Not in this lifetime or the next, but it will get up here soon. Anyway, here is a sneak peek at one of the things I want to cover; pattern on printed paper.

Sorry, no nail polish that day.....but I am digging some Blood Red Nails now!
It is fun, easy and painless.
Unless you drop a book on your foot while digging through piles. Please don't let me think I'm the only one with too many books....
Well, just a short pop in so you know I have not been sucked up the sweeper or actually become a good little housewife and am worrying that my whites are not bright enough or how I'm going to get those pesky stains out of the grout on the kitchen floor.
That's what throw rugs are for.
You throw them down, it's covered up.
Easy.
And now, I need to pretend like I'm going to get something of merit accomplished so until later....which hopefully will be the paper tute.....


Pax....

Hello!!!


Hi Everyone! My name is Sweet Pea, and I am the new addition to Anne's household. She saw me at the pet store, and I looked really sad because I knew she would come back for me. I could tell.....she had that look, and I thought maybe it would be interesting living at her house too!
I just have one leg; I was born that way but it doesn't slow me down much and I came home to a special Bird Penthouse with fitted wooden shelves to walk on and big fat soft rope perches. I have nice ceramic dishes for food and water, an angled ladder covered with a piece of wood, so I can explore the bottom of the new house, a perch with a birdie friend (he doesn't say anything, very quiet; I think he's shy) a daisy mirror with a bell and of course a cuttlebone. I'm not bragging, just describing the nice place I moved to!
And I found I had a soft, cushie, hand knit Birdie Bed with a nice little snuggle corner, which was much better than the accomodations at the pet store. ;-) I know we all hate moving, but this has been a good move for me, and I have heard something I never heard before; I think it is called Jazz? I like that!
The only problem is at night, when I am covered in my special flannel wrap with all the Jazz Notes on it, there has been *something* running about and turning the computer on and making noise. Not a lot mind you, but I know something is up. I am wondering if it is that Milo character Anne has mentioned......
Well, I just wanted to stop by a second and introduce myself as the Studio Mascot, and---this is secret---my initials, S.P. also stand for Special Parakeet. Kind of like the old TV shows with Secret Agent Men. (I haven't seen those but I've heard of them...)
Okay, now I'll give the blog back to Anne, ummmmm, MOM, and hope you all have a really Big Budgie Day!!!

Peep....
