Weirdos have weird dreams...

I dreamed that I was walking across the porch at either my grandmother's house or my mother's house, when I suddenly encountered a snarling dark grey wolf.



As I recall, he was fairly large and I knew I was in trouble. I couldn't remember whether I was supposed to avert my eyes or stare him down, so I did a throw-down with staring and growling back at him.  This did not work at all, and just when I knew, in this dream, that I had just reached the last day of my life, the wolf turned into a man.  You would think that he would look like that guy from Twilight, but no, this shape changer takes on the appearance of Jason Segal from "How I met Your Mother" but looking a bit off.



Don't get me wrong, I was pretty scared, nonetheless as I knew this ordinary looking guy could change back and rip my guts out at any minute.  Then I heard someone coming, and he said no one else could see him and to prove it, he immediately became invisible and started doing tricks like opening and shutting the door.

Well, it just happens that the person we heard walks into the room and it's Amy Poehler.


She was all cute and bubbly and she says to the door that is opening and closing that she can see him and basically acted like she wasn't scared at all. Exit Wolf/Weird Jason.

Then Amy and I, along with some other random people that just wandered into my dream, start discussing how she shouldn't be pressured into making another movie. My advice was to just be herself.

Then she started fake-snoring/snorting, trying to be funny, and we told her that wasn't a snore noise it was the noise you make when you are mucous-y from sinus troubles and then, sitting on the floor behind the couch, I see a humidifier/nebulizer releasing steam.



That's when I woke up, coughing a bit from whatever that nebulizer had loosened up. I'm still a little clogged up as I type this, but I thought I would share it with you.

Hope you enjoyed my visuals, also. Let's go get some coffee.

It's been two months since my last...

It's been two months since my last post. I suppose I should post more often, but you know, sometimes I 'm just not in the mood. I have been painting a lot these past two months, as well as going to the doctor for a physical, and having physical therapy for a frozen shoulder. Oh and the day after Christmas I got something akin to the Norovirus (aka stomach flu) and was really sick for several days.

Hopefully I am on the mend from everything and will be more inclined to post more. Maybe, maybe not...who knows.

I'm not one to bitch and moan about stuff, but I really haven't felt good for a while and I've been watching a lot of television and taking it easy.  It's only mid February, but I find myself looking forward to spring.  We have had several unseasonably warm days here in Roanoke, Virginia and it lulls me into a false sense of warmth and change. With all that being said...

Let's see what kind of art I can post for you.  Most of my FB faithfuls have seen these, but it never hurts to post them here, just in case I still have readers...

 How about a portrait of a Canadian Chicken???

And here we have an abstract with the colors of my bedroom...

 Who doesn't love splashes of color representative of a flower garden where sunflowers rule...

 Another abstract that ended up being a city, but it started out as something completely different...

A trio of faceless angels helped me welcome in the Christmas Seasons...
And some of you will remember that I love cardinals, so I painted this guy against a snowy backdrop...

 And for my blogger friends that haven't seen me for a while, I'm still rocking my gray locks and

I take almost as many selfies as a reality star, but hey, use to be that I took pictures of my cats and my husband and well...they are no longer in this realm, so a gal does what a gal has to do.

Enjoy your upcoming week and have fun of some kind. Love ya bunches and I'll try to check in more often.
