Aren't these just gorgeous?  My friend Ingaborg's husband gave me these earlier in the week.......just because.  He picked them from his garden and gave some to me and another woman.  I put them in a crystal bowl with water and have them right here on my desk.  The color is so vibrant.  And so....I thought I'd share them here with you.....just because.

It's been another busy week here.  I got some writing done on my current manuscript.  And on Thursday and Friday I took the pen and ink class at the Arts Center.  It was great and I enjoyed it a lot.  Besides which, I found out that I actually CAN draw a straight line.  I surprised myself with what I'm capable of doing with pen and ink and I'll share it here with you next time.

Yesterday we had a mobile doggie groomer come to our house to do Duncan and Brie.  She comes right into my driveway with her van and I'm so pleased.  I'll tell you about that soon.

And today.....well, we're off to a flea market that the Women's Club is having at their clubhouse out on SR24. 

See you here next time..........

If you've followed my blog for any length of time, you'll know that I  don't do "memes."  Why?  Usually because I have other things to talk about here on my blog.

Oh, you don't know what a meme is?  Don't feel bad.....it was ages before I understood what the word actually MEANS.  It's a French word.....and means "same."  Like in "we got the same results." And in the blog world it's somebody "tagging" you to do a meme which is usually a series of questions on various topics. Everybody answers the same questions and then tags somebody to "do the same." I didn't get tagged, but my friend Millie at Thoroughly Modern Millie, did one recently and asked who would like to join in.

Since I'm short of time for blogging lately, I thought I just might do that.  So here goes:
