Good Times

Looking back …

Jake Charles's avatartwo dogs and a camera

Once upon a time, I collaborated on a mosaic tile dog house – to be donated for auction to support the good work at homeforlife.org. – with the late Eleanor Mondale.

With only 3 weeks to complete – with a weeks notice – a friend of Eleanor’s built the dog house frame and I tiled animal related tschotskes and china to the massive dog house that could fit one of Eleanor’s miniature horses in it.  The finished dog house weighed in at 300 pounds and was sold to the highest bidder.

Good times.

THROW BACK THURSDAY another blast from the past … 

The antique cupboard was loaded to the brim with vintage glass objects waiting and wanting.

My goal was three glass on glass windows by month’s end.

Thoughts Per Hour

Humans have 50,000 – 80,000 thoughts a day … that’s a minimum of 2000 thoughts per hour.

It’s exhausting to think about and with so much thinking going on, it’s surprising that we can get anything done.

At the time, this is what I was thinking about. ;)-
