This has been a long cold, icy winter and I decided as a counterpoint to it I would update my Facebook profile image every day from Feb 1st to Feb 14th with different hearts I drew. (Select image for larger view.)
Click here for final image: Happy Valentine’s Day!
It snowed several days ago and the sun has been out since and there is still snow frozen to the sides of the hemlocks outside my window. My garden is covered with snow.
The birds love the bird feeders and the squirrels are crazy trying to get to them, so I give them bread crusts and they are fat and happy.
This thing is so cool. Using a sketchbook app—just draw with your finger—every once and a while I get carried away and try to draw with several fingers and that doesn’t work. . .
Surprising all the features this app has – colors, fonts, layers, different brushes, opacity, etc…
You can download this app for the Ipad at: Itunes. Oprah has a special version of this app for free—this month only—through the O magazine. Check it out.
Changed the header to an image taken early this am on a hike in the Wissahickon Valley in Philadelphia. So many hopes and plans for the new year. One is to slow down and enjoy what is all around us.
When we were in Ireland this summer I bought a pare of mitts – sort of like gloves without fingers. They are of very soft wool and have become one of my favorite things!
Even if the room is comfortable – well comfortable with a sweater, or comfortable if you are moving around, the desk where I have my computer keyboard is still pretty chilly. I spend hours at the computer and my wrists get cold. But not with my Irish Mitts.
The tag reeds: “Fsherman – out of Ireland” with the she in red – I guess Irish women get cold wrists too – I’m part Irish-perhaps that’s where I get them (cold wrists)!
What ever the reason, I love my Irish Mitts!
