No resolutions this year … although … I did promise that I would try to find more time to play artist.

I cleaned off my tile table, found a glue bottle that worked, and will admit to feeling fairly confident that something fantastic was about to happen.

Standing there  … I got nuthin’ … nope, nuthin’ … still standing there, starring out into space … a few minutes go by …  nothing, nothing, nothing … not gonna happen … not even if you think really, really hard squeezing your eyes together.

We’re sorry all circuits are busy doing other things right now … Please try again later.

It’s all good. There’s always laundry to do. 😉

Peace!

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.
