' I was going to do something today but haven't finished doing nothing from yesterday' is the Tim Holtz snarky comment for this week. I must admit that about sums up the last two days for me as well. Avril has gone out for a country walk with her dog Gordon and is looking at the distant hills with a nervous glance. There is a very stormy sky and she can see the rain in the distance. Gordon is looking at her hopefully expecting a quick walk back home. He only has very short legs and is hoping that Avril will carry him home. Well a dog can hope can't he. Avril was explaining to him that she really should go home and do some long awaited jobs, but the walk will do them good, even if they got soaked through. Gordon doesn't want to get his new coat wet, if it shrinks it will be a real painful job to peel it off him. "Yes I know you want to go home Gordon, but I can't face going home just yet. "I was going to do something today but haven't finished doing nothing from yesterday" Gordon failed to understand his human and realised limping or refusing to move would not get him very far in the popularity stakes.

We are now on a new list of Tim Holtz snarky sayings and the first one is 'To be honest, I'm just winging it...life, motherhood, my eye liner...everything. Fay has met up with her school friend Fran and they are having a walk in the sunshine, it has been so wet the last few weeks, it was lovely to get out without raincoats and umbrellas. Fay has been taking close look at Fran and had asked her how she managed to raise a family, keep herself looking smart all the time and have time to indulge in a few of her hobbies as well. "It took me nearly all day to do my hair with all the fancy colours and ribbons" said Fay. Fran was so tempted to ask her why she bothered as she thought it looked ridiculous, but refrained from doing so. " To be honest, I'm just winging it...life. motherhood, my eye liner...everything replied Fran. " I think you take life too seriously, you need to relax and see what happens' said Fran. Fay is not convinced.

The words this week are 'I admit my weirdness is above the national average, but I'm comfortable with that' Julia has gone round to see her best friend Amy, who still lives with her parents. Amy's saving up for her own flat, but was still quite a long way away from her dream place. Julia supposed it made sense, but didn't really appeal to Julia who hadn't lived with her parents since she had finished her secretarial course. When she arrived at Amy's parents house her mum immediately said "Amy's in the back garden lying on the grass" and with this statement her eyes rolled up and she gave Julia that 'I give up look' Sure enough there was Amy lying on the grass gazing at the sky. "What on earth are you doing'?" asked Julia. "I'm looking at the clouds and seeing different shapes and animals, then I make up a story about them" Seeing the look on Julia's face, Amy immediately said "I admit my weirdness is above the national average, but I'm comfortable with that"

The words this week are 'I'm just a girl standing in front of a salad, asking it to be a donut' Judy has be persuaded (dragged) by her friend Grace to the local Spring fare. It's beautiful bright day with a nearly cloudless blue sky, and Grace who is very slim and food conscious has steered Judy towards the food area, where the local ladies have made wonderful spread of healthy looking food. Grace had managed to get Judy to look the other way when they were approaching the fudge stall by taking her via the small animal enclosure, knowing that Judy wouldn’t be able to resist stroking the rabbits. Further on, Judy was not amused to see a table full of salads and kept walking to the very end of the long table to find something that suited her, the obvious answer was hard luck, it was all various forms of salad. Grace could see Judy's face and asked what was wrong. "I'm a girl standing in front of a salad and asking it to be a donut" replied Judy "I don't like rabbit food and I will never be slim like you" "No, you eat too many rubbish foods and sweets, of course you won't, but you really should try and eat healthily, you will feel much better" replied Grace.

Art Journal Journey - Above us only skies
I am hosting Art Journal Journey this month with the theme of Above us only skies. A line from a Beatles song Imagine. These can be only type of sky, and I am starting off with a night sky with a barn owl flying across it. I collaged the page and then painted it. The owl was from a magazine, and a drew a tree on the left and spattered white paint to finish off.
