where am i

I have a transient life.

I work in Anacortes and live here

during the week. My guy lives in

kirkand and I go there for the weekend.

I have been doing this for 12 years.

I feel like I live in my car. I always

forget something...like my power cord for

my computer...

I love my house

but

I think 1400 square feet is to big.

It is also a studio so I feel it is also

a mess.

I love my house...no I really love my location

I am right on the water. I love it.

But....do I need it?

I don't know.

So I am going to rent out my house.

I am going to see how that goes.

A tiny home on wheels sounds like one solution.

They look like this.

But

I want this.

or this

Oh my god yes,

THIS

Yes Yes Yes

this is it.

I am dreaming, fantasizing, wishing,

hoping.

No

I am doing.

I am going to build a tiny home on wheels.

It will be Modern

clean and uncluttered

minimal.

And

It will have

character

A rusty tin roof

One whole side of windows.

A sleeping loft.

Solar panels, composting toilet.

I will be self contained.

I will live with less...stuff.

If I choose to move to a different

location. I will just hitch up my home

to a truck and go.

new toy

My Guy has a new toy.

I got a driving lesson sunday.

No problem driving a stick with a clutch that

doesn't enact till your knee is in your chest or learning

to pump brakes and not jerk...jerk...jerk.

....but, see those teeny tiny side mirrors?

Now that will take some getting use to.

It is so cute...t The color is so much better than

the picture. And the popout windows are just like being

in a convertible. It is fun, fun , fun...to be a passenger.

When people see this little

VW..they get a big grin and wave

or throw out the universal peace sign.

funny ha ha

Thank-you Annie.

This is Hysterical.

The last 3 seconds i priceless.

who said tomato

We have a small garden.

A bounty of tomatoes.

Better than candy.

We share with the snails.

fall approaches

...TIME MARCHES ON...

Fall approaches,

we are witnessing the

tides of change.

So, 2 we must adapt.

This gives pause

to be thankful...

for the last rays of a summer sun

We are having a magnificent

end of summer weekend

80 degrees

in Seattle.

SOAK IT UP!

I saw one of these on a walk today.

I tend to believe it is good luck...

since we are Bunnies By The Bay.

I also feel like I just can't run fast enough right

now. Hurry and Hurry and get the spring line

done. But, it never seems like it is done. Here,

design is the easy part. I would have to say getting

it developed, resourced and marketed is much more

difficult. I guess I have the fun easy job...even though

right now. Uhhhhh, I am tired.

cool trick

I found this on... I think

one of the 2 blogs I mentioned

previously.

It is a website that turns your photos

into vintage photos.

Unbelievably easy.

This is my house and view.

When my little shack was barged up

the bay and dropped where it is now,

I can imagine that this is what it looked like.

An another amazing blog.

cool...cool...cool...

beginning to end.

I could do this to my house.

The layout is the same.

Just open up the attic.

Love.

love meryl

Saw

Julie and Julia

this weekend.

loved

I now want to watch her cooking show and

biography on netflix. Meryl Streep was

amazing. I adore the love story of her and

paul, her husband. To me, this was the highlight.

We had a rainy weekend.

rain...sun...rain...sun

It was kinda cool.

Relaxing.

I don't really mind the rain,

when it is warm.

Discovered this great blog.

I read it beginning to end.

Love it.

A funny little flower arraignment.

The glass is a battery holder found at my

favorite antique storeDays Gone By Antique Mall Anacortes, WA

Radishes from the farmers market. Jasmine from my yard.

I took this picture a few weeks ago.

Even though fall is on it's way, I have

no complaints. We have had a wonderful

summer here in Washinton. Sunshine

is just an amazingly healing gift.

Fall is on it's way.

This is the fire pit in my front yard.

That is what I love most about fall.

Building a fire and watching the tide.

I must have passed this on to my kids.

They all have their own fire pits.

hoot hoot

This is the coolest pictures of owls, ever!

I found it in google images.

Girls at work have noticed owls lately.

I have been drawing them and thinking,

owls, fall....snowmen...winter. I don't want

summer to end.
