busy busy busy

it was a fun weekend

we 
never do anything right away
 a shelf
 I've wanted to buy
 for 
seriously
 years and years
 finally
 got bought 
last 
weekend
 hung this

 that's Turk 
our friend
 Andrew Johns
 who  writes the teleplays he and Toonman do 
made him
 and
 two other figures 
we have
 literally
 hanging
 around
our living room 

eventually
 there'll 
be scarves
 and
 caps
 hanging
 on those pegs
 but for now
 its 
Turk's 
perch



for
 almost as long
 as I've wanted that shelf 
I have wanted
 a painting by San Merideth

  San
 used to blog
now its only on special occasions
 that
 you'll see her blog update 

San and her husband 
live and create art in Santa Fe
  they own Convergence Gallery there
 of course 
when I was in Santa Fe
 this past summer
 she and her husband
 were off visiting family out of state

  I bought a small painting by Brad Stroman




 I drooled over the incredible sunset series
 she's been painting

 well I got lucky
 she said
 make her an offer
 I did 
she accepted
 and 
its now hanging in our bedroom
 over the bed
 its called 
High Road to Taos 



while my heart 
still aches 
for Rose
 we have adopted a new 'baby' 
through
 in Edison NJ 

his name is 
Harry 


we think 
he is purr-fect

Jack 
did not welcome him politely 
thankfully
 Harry has better manners 
and
 a 'that's okay with me' personality

It will take a little while 
but
 I've no doubt 
they will be friends
